OK help please - I'd like a nice (but fairly basic) doll/furniture set - girly colours - preferably wood but will take sturdy plastic - that's not going to cost an arm and a leg. Product recommendations? Where to buy?

Have checked out the ELC stuff - very nice - but once you've bought enough sets to make a basic house, very exxy!! PLUS only one store here and they don't even have the people right now.

I've looked on ebay too but I have hesitations about how well the dolls fit the furniture.

Alternative is to do the tight-arse mummy thing, give her the dollshouse and then just stock it with the duplo furniture/people that we already have. Will that totally destroy the doll-house experience? Opinions?
