Researching prices can be challenging and at times frustrating.
We have outlined below how you can reduce this and get a fair market value for your Ty.
eBay is one helpful and popular tool to investigate market trends.
Search your Ty product on eBay by entering a specific type/name and filtering to "Completed Sold Items".
Filter results from low to high.
This will tell you what people have paid recently for that Ty.
eBay is only one resource for this, but you do need to see through the unrealistic high sell prices that occur.
If the best offer was accepted there is no way to know what that offer was.
It might have been $1.
If an auction sells very high, and especially if it only has 1 bid, it could very well be the seller buying or some other type of fake sale or money laundering.
Many false eBay sales are created.
Be careful and don’t be misled.
Many sellers attempt to sell a common Beanie by saying they have an ultra-rare Beanie, you must be aware of this and do your research.
Anything that is labeled ultra-rare or rare is worth getting authenticated.
We understand the confusion!
Unfortunately, there are people out there that take advantage of the Ty community.
People purposely spread misinformation about the rarity of a Beanie Baby and then ask for a high price.
Just because it's happening all the time on eBay doesn’t mean it is fact or ethical.
