My Favourite Doll - Canada's Premiere Source of Barbie, Gene & Tyler Doll Collectibles
Description
Hi. My name is Margaret Matsui and I am the president of My Favourite Doll Inc. Barbie was a huge part of my childhood, but it wasn’t until I had children of my own that I rediscovered my passion for Barbie again. Accidentally stumbling upon my childhood dolls engulfed me with wonderful memories of my youth. Desperate recapture the quality of clothing I remembered Mattel manufacturing, I began searching for vintage fabric to create outfits for my newfound friends. Needless to say, I was thrilled to eventually discover that there were other adult Barbie Collectors out there and that I could actually buy original 1960’s Barbie dolls and fashions! Talk about a dream come true! I was like a kid in a candy store!
Buying and selling vintage dolls to help finance my collecting habit was a natural step. With an entrepreneurial background becoming a Vintage Barbie Dealer was the ideal situation for me. Over the next few years I found that I had gained a reputation as being somewhat of a Barbie expert here in Canada. Living close to Mattel Canada’s Head Office was a lucky break and I was eventually hired for consulting and promotions jobs, which offered me a variety of challenges and the opportunity to gain a solid reputation in the Barbie Collecting Community. By 1994 I was ready to take the plunge and take my love for collecting Barbie dolls to the next level – a career. In 1994 My Favourite Doll Inc. began its humble origins in the basement of my home.
Today My Favourite Doll Inc. is located in a beautiful 7,000 sq foot facility in Mississauga, which is just west of Toronto. Although we are essentially a worldwide mail order business, we do have a wonderful showroom for in-person shopping. As well, my personal vintage collection is on display for viewing. Including my partner Rick (who is also my husband), there are 8 full time employees, most of whom are collectors themselves. Since the beginning, our focus has always been on building a solid, reputable business based on customer service and integrity. We believe in what we do and are proud to have raised the bar in way Collectible Doll Shops run their businesses.
