Doll Collecting/Talking Barbie

Question
Somewhere around 12 years ago I had purchased a talking barbie fashion doll. It says 3 or 4 different phrases. Anyway, with the one I have, one of the phrases is "math is tough". I recall Mattel took some public relations flak for this. My question is - does this doll with this particular talking message have any special demand in collectability. What would be the best internet site for offering its sale.The doll's in mint condition.Its rough value would also be appreciated. Thanks.  

Answer
Hi Jerry:

She came out in 1992, Part number 5745.  You had to rmove her from the box to learn what she could say.

Math is tough, was really in demand at one time.  Looks like interest has declined a bit, but she should still be worth about $75.00.
