Aimee | A Ty beanie baby question....? |
Ok, this might be a stupid question, but for all of you beanie baby collectors, maybe you can help me out. I used to collect beanie babies awhile back. All of the ones that I have are retired because I haven't bought any new ones. I dont even know if being retired or not means anything, but what should I do with them? I want to sell them, but would it be better for me to wait a few years and see if their values increase? or should I just sell the lot of them on eBay now? Are they ever going to get as popular as they once were where I would be able to sell them for twice what I would get now? |

Beanie Babies are totally worthless. They were mass-produced for far too long and were far too much of a fad to ever have the value they did back when they were popular. All you have to do is go on EBay to find out how little value they have. Even the "retired" beanie babies were produced by the tens of thousands. I know it hurts after you spent all that money, but they will NEVER regain value. Your best bet is to keep the ones you really like, and then sell the rest in a lot on eBay. Selling a bunch in a lot may help you bring up the price, but not by much. Selling individually will end up costing you money from all the relisting you'll have to do. Sorry.
By the way, to the poster who donated theirs to a children's hospital - great idea! Good for you. |

you should probably wait. there are less beanie babies now than years ago. wait, and their value will increase! |

You probably won't get too much for them now. You can look around eBay and see what other ones are selling for, and then decide. You might be better off waiting a few more years, so long as the toys are in good condition and in a safe place.
But, when you collect things, you never know what the market will do. Much like buying stocks... |

Check ebay to see if you have any rarities that are selling for a significant amount of money.
But I just sold a lot of them, probably 150 of them or so for about $200. They were a hot collectible at one time, but as with most of those things people move on and they don't retain much of their original value.
As has been said, anything created and marketed as a collectible...isn't. |

I bought another persons entire collection for like $30, & there were well over 200 in the collection. It was worth it to buy them, in my opinion, as I love them! I had only 40 or so myself & wanted to add to my collection in a major fashion. Mine are all retired, & most are in mint condition. I'm keeping mine. I add more to my collection when I see them for like 25 cents or so at garage sales. I'll even pay a $1 for the rare one that are worth well over $30 now! I expect that when they go way up in price, I'll sell off a few of my Ty collectables.
I usually put my duplicates in Christmas Child boxes, or let my girls play with them. No need for muliples of the same cute critter. |

That's the risk of being a collector. You need a market in order to sell but the craze may fade.
What's your risk comfortability factor? A you a bird in the hand person or a two in the bush person? |

it depends...they have this book somewhere that talks about the prices of them and what year they will reach that price...but i do agree with you..they might be going out of style so you might just want to get money for them while you can---if you have a green dinosaur save it til next yr...it's supposed to be worth 2.5 mil |

They were garbage then are garbage now. Only a moron would invest in them. They are mass produced toys, not rare gold coins. They make good dust collectors though. |
