Mint in box-complete, perhaps some age wear, but unplayed with, $175 to $300. Mint-excellent condition non boxed in all original clothes $60 to $150. Played with, very good condition in partial original clothes $25 to $75. Played with, well loved, no original clothes $10 to $40.

However, Chatty Cathy was another doll that faced discontinuation due to changing consumer tastes and the emergence of new toy trends in the 1960s and 1970s. For one thing, the doll's string-pull mechanism became outdated compared to the electronic and interactive features of newer dolls.

The doll and its accompanying accessories were advertised at less than $20. In 1961, the red Chatty Cathy dress was discontinued, replaced by a pink and white striped dress with a white pinafore called "Pink Peppermint Stick", which was available until 1964.
