BJD pricing help?

The long version: Several weeks ago, a wonderful woman I knew through a cloth-doll maker's club passed away. A mutual friend of ours asked if she could give my contact information to my late friend's daughter, as there were several BJD in the collection, and the daughter had no idea of what to do with them or how to move them along. Time passes, and I suspect that perhaps the daughter decides she doesn't need help, at which point she tags me and I agree to do what I can.

For the most part, I'm able to easily identify, price and post the dolls and several have already sold, which is great, because the money is going to help repair my late friend's home.

HOWEVER, there is a Kaye Wiggs Sage in amongst all of these dolls and... I'm clueless. I can find how much other Kaye Wiggs dolls go for, but this one is a challenge-- she has no box and no COA, but is absolutely a legit doll (Kaye Wiggs has confirmed that she likely did the face-up herself). If she had a box, it may not have been kept with all of the other doll stuff that the daughter found as she was going through everything, and she's not likely to have recognized it as something to keep.

These dolls never fit my aesthetic, so I paid zero attention when they were released. As a limited run. In 2008. And I'm kinda-afraid to ask somewhere where I'm more visible (Facebook/Insta) because, well... someone may try to mislead/undercut in their favor in a space where I am obviously trying to move this doll along.

TL;DR: I need help pricing a Kaye Wiggs Sage produced in 2008 with a face-up by the artist, but does not have her own box or COA.

@dollsonmain? not sure it's your aesthetic either, but you might have clues or know someone who could?
