Absolutely, I believe in recycling, I did ask in our local op-shops and they told me they rarely get them because there is lot of demand and they are usually given to needy families. I was really looking for second hand ones on eBay, and also just to know what is around and how much it sells for new. I mean all what these things are is a piece of cheap plastic. She is not getting Barbie one, actually Hello Kitty is more her style. 
When I was 3 I was not given choices. LOL
Anyway, i do have few weeks before they are arriving , so will continue looking at op-shops and some $2 shops. But knowing myself, then I just say "Oh bleep" it and buy the one I really like
