Your best bet is to go to Ebay and see what they are actually selling for.
You might have a hard time finding an online price guide. The people who compile this information generally do not want to just give it away. They want to make money off of it. So they put it in price guide books or on sites where you have to pay. Every now and then you find a person who compiles the data and provides it for free.
Next up, the prices in a price guide are only worth the paper they are printed on (at most). Some price guides inflate the prices. Some price guides only show what dealers are selling them for and not what dealers are buying them for. The prices could also be out of date or even just completely made up. If you find a price in a price guide, there is nothing you can do to make sure that someone gives you that price.
So, I recommend going back to Ebay and checking out the historical selling prices. The serious collectors are going to go to Ebay first anyway. They know that the best prices are there and there is a pretty good selection. If they can find it on Ebay cheaper, then why buy it directly from a person for more?
By the way, I have seen some sites for other collectibles have a program that scrapes the sells off of Ebay history and compiles a sort of price guide and these sites provided the information for free. The sites that used this used a program made by a person named Cloister. I do not know if there is one for Barbies though.
