High nostalgia factor for Y2K 'Princess Core' aesthetic; unique 'Dear Diary' script which is less common than standard character prints; desirable satin/shiny finish; original pink bow accents intact.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (best for collectors), Depop (highest price potential for the Y2K aesthetic), and Mercari (easy shipping for bulky items).
Selling Tips
Steam the item carefully (use low heat for satin) to remove wrinkles before photographing. Use keywords like 'Vintage Disney', 'Y2K', 'Princess Core', 'Satin Comforter', and 'Dear Diary'. Photograph the corner bows and the script clearly.
