Retired Beanie Babies and Todays Value
Beanie Babies are still highly collectable and a valuable market place.
Retired Beanie Babies are being resold today all over the Internet.
When shopping for Beanie Babies claiming to be "Rare" or "ultra rare" be certain to inquire and see all tags, forepart to back, within and out! This also goes for the famous Princess Beanie Baby.
*three Things to look out for when shopping for not then "Rare" Beanie Babies*
ane. Biggest giveaway is the pink or red stamp on the inside of the TUSH tag.
The numbers on the inside represents the factory numbers where it was reproduced in people's republic of china.
These types of Beanies are mass produced, so lamentable it's not rare
2. Look on the tush tag, if there is a star side by side to TY and it also says PE pellets and handmade in china than sorry information technology'south not rare
three. If the swing center tag has just the proper name, birthdate and Verse form in combination with the above so sorry it'due south non rare.
There is just 3 exceptions to these rules:
1. Rare color
ii. factory mistakes
3. Very limited change in pattern
These are valued between $500-$5000
For instance, it'southward cherry instead of blue or they used a different textile or they forgot the wings or the eyes are blue instead of dark-green or they misspelled the word beanie.
*How tin can y'all tell Beanie Babies are rare?*
It's really simpler to point out rare beanies. When buying any beanie infant, make certain its been stored properly.
At that place are ii things to look for before buying:
1. Mint ( make clean, brand new condition, smells new)
2. 2 Mint Tags ( no rips ) actually, only make sure it has both tags, I prefer to accept a tag than no tag, even if it has stains or discoloration. This is just my preference.
To really be honest, the swing tag tin take minor damage, just as long as it's attached and readable.
Anyone will purchase the rarest of beanies just as long as information technology is readable and not torn with no pen marks. There is simply a very slight difference in value.
It's withal valued about 35%-%75 less without tag. Depending on which beanie information technology is.
Rare signs list:
1. All rare TY beanies take only a TY on the swing. The slimmer the TY, the more valuable it is. BEWARE of this feature because you may mistake a Beanie Baby for a TY Attic Treasure.
ii. No star on Tush tag
3. 1993-1998
4. PVC pellets
v. Capital i's look similar lower instance L's on the swing tag
6. Proper noun and fashion number in combination with all of the higher up 1-five are the rarest beanie babies
7. One-time face, usually slimmer than the new face up beanie babies or eyes very far apart on the bears almost inline with the nose.
8. Swing tag with star and original beanie babies are still rare depending on the year on the tush tag!

Remember value and today's retail is much much unlike! Retail value is about v-25% of its VALUE.
The reason for this is because of its size and why it was made, it was easy to collect and keep in skillful condition, it was fabricated as a collectable. So to find an erstwhile doll is like shooting fish in a barrel. It's not similar cabbage patch kids or American girls, rainbow bright, holly hobby, my little pony, Barbie, strawberry shortcake, gi joe, popples, pound puppies and all those other vintage or antiquarian dolls that were made to be played with, that were super popular. It'due south very hard to observe i of those ills in mint condition, people desire and will pay big bucks to become their hands on those old dolls.
My advice would be to actually sort out your beanies, take all the retired pe pellet dolls and sell them as a lot at 50 cents- $i.00 a piece. Don't forget aircraft.
Accept all your PVC dolls and sell them individually. If yous have any double tush tag beanies or Indonesian beanies, really practice your enquiry. Tell me about them and I will help y'all.
Message me if there's a beanie you want and I'll tell you how you can get it!
Bulletin me if at that place's a beanie you accept and you want to know how much you can sell it for and I'll requite you lot the answer.
Remember that retail values alter monthly, weekly and even daily.
These are examples of tags you would similar to run into in your collection:

UPDATE:::::::::::::::::::::::🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I've been doing a lot of research every bit to what 24-hour interval of the week beanie babies should be listed on eBay for sale.
Sat and Sun is the best 24-hour interval. Or listing it on a day that the sale will stop on a Lord's day evening.
Proficient luck!
Cerise oval stamps 400, 401 or whatever number you have on the within of the tush tag, ARE NOT RARE!
Stamping on the inside of tush tags are very common on retired beanie babies. Come across for yourself, check out your collection! Retired meaning pre 1998.
Next…
Errors on tags… The only type of tags with errors that get the large bucks are the ones that have the wrong name or the wrong verse form or the incorrect beanie baby number or a completely wrong proper name and poem. Before you lot can sell any of these, yous need to get it authenticated and sell with certificate. Too many fraudulent dolls out there.
