Always amazes me ebay can Vero in hours but can't fix all these bogus sellers. Great video!
eBay doesn't stop it because they get a share of the money that's laundered
Thank you for talking about this. Crazy how strict THEY are on some things yet all these fake listings remain🤔
I was always skeptical about those big prices ! I thought they might buy them themselves to fool us. And now you made it clear ! Thank you Rebel !
Glad I could help! Thanks!
Oh Rebel, I wish I would have seen this on Wednesday. I was bidding in online estate auction and they had about 30 listings of lots of 10 beanies babies per listing. I thought I knew better but then I saw what I thought surly must be rare ones, i spent around $337 after fees and I won 120 loose beanie babies all with tags on. I won 30 collectible smaller Beanie Babies on cards. I figure I spent about $2.95 per Beanie Baby when it was all said and done. I picked them up yesterday and I have many duplicates. I have 3 of the Princess Diana, 2 lambs, 1 Red Bull, cats, a bunch of dogs, 2 snakes & 2 ladybugs, a bunch of lizards, 5 Valentine bears, about 10 st. Patrick’s Day bears, about 6 Christmas characters, 2 ghosts, 1 spider. 2 Jack-o-lanterns, 6 uSA characters, fish and other sea creatures, the list goes on. I think I can at least make money back. I did have high hopes though. I should have known better!
I am amazed of the time you give to other resellers to give us much needed information to help us be better at our own reselling. Thank you so much.
Excellent video and topic. It's awesome to bust some myths. I did recently pick up a beanie for $10 that I think I can sell for $50. Time will tell, but if it turns out to be a total flop, my daughter really wants this stuffy (Canadians call them stuffies, lol) so it wouldn't be a total loss.
How funny to see one of my sold listings in one of your videos! I can confirm the Ty Pluffies cat is legit and sells for good money, paid 99¢ for mine and it sold for $50
Same here, saw one of my solds in a different Rebel video! Kinda cool surprise lol
I love when this happens. Pluffies are my favorite Ty!
Rebel, this was great! I had a tote of beanie babies and went about researching them. I figured out very quickly with the SOLDS with only 1 bid and no seller feedback that a scam was afoot on so many of these. Thank you for all you do for the reseller community :)
Thank you for this. I’ve been trying to inform people of this for a little over a year now. I just saw a Netflix series called “King of Collectibles” where they hilariously appraise a collection of beanie babies worth max $100 for $7000. It’s a shame the show didn’t do their due diligence and ended up embarrassing themselves.
Thank you for this educational video! I found 2 Claude the Crab Beanie Babies last night that I was kicking myself for not buying because when I checked comps when I got home, saw there were MANY in the $100’s. After watching this I went back and looked at MANY more closely, ALL BOGUS.
I went to an estate sale where a man who had passed away had an entire room filled with beanies. I found it heartbreaking. He thought he would live to see his investment worth something and it never happened.
Too many stories like these unfortunately.
That was a great video, I never thought about looking at the bid history. I normally just look at sold comps. And as a 90s kid, I was sad to see ty don't have much of a resell. So I just kept mine and gave them to my kids. When I was a kid my mom had gotten so mad when I took the paper tags off, because she thought they would have a resell value. Thank you for the research ❤️
The information is there if you take the time to learn. Too many are after a quick buck and get hurt emotionally and financially. Thanks for all you're doing!
Very important info for everyone who collects anything, not just beanies. Also, research values under " completed listings" not just " sold". Completed shows everything thats ended, whether it sold ( prices in green) or didnt sell ( prices in black) If you see a ton ofvsomething selling for a low price, but an occassional super high price..... more than likely those crazy high prices are fradulent.
Exactly! Thanks!
As an ebay buyer and seller I do not do any dealings with zero accounts.
Thanks so much for the heads up! I found a box of Ty from McDonald’s that I had stored. One comp sold was $2400, got kind of excited. My friend Jenna sent me this video. I’ll research now.
This was very helpful, now I can take my grandmas totes full and lot them up and make more money and less time researching them all 😅
My husband picked up a bunch of beanie babies for free. This is the problem l found when looking them up. Then I thought I need to see what Rebel has to say about these. The exact information I needed. Thanks so much.
Awesome video! My youngest has had that Pluffie puppy since she was a baby. It was her number one childhood toy. If she had ever lost it, we might would've been willing to pay that $129 price.
A zero-feedback person can be a new seller and not a scammer. A buddy of mine has a storage full of beanie babies, some rare. I have been trying to convince him to sell a few of the valuable items online. Until he establishes himself, he will have very few reviews, but he is certainly no scammer. All sellers start with zero reviews.
Great, informative video! I will have to say - as an eBay seller (and buyer): The high numerical value of the feedback score and a high positive feedback rating percentage (99%+) are great indicators of a reliable seller.
Many high-dollar items don't sell on the first auction try, so relisting is not a reliable indicator of negative seller activity.
Also, if the ended auction listing can no longer be found, it is almost always because the end date is more than 6 months ago and the eBay backlog has purged it.
If an auction finishes with a legitimate winning bid, it will show ended/won with the amount.
If an auction is "taken down" or unlisted by eBay, it will show as unsold or won't be viewable at all.
I hope this helps!
I was thinking of putting my set of 77 Ty’s given to owners of franchisee’s I’ve never sold on eBay. By her telling viewers that if there is no reviews then it is fake. I wouldn’t ever sell them unless I got what I’m expecting to get. The cardboard case fell apart. They are from the time that we were crazy busy and they were a gift from Ty for our incredible sells.
Thanks so much for all of your hard work. You help so many.
I’m glad I found this but I’m nervous as a first time seller with no feedback wanting to sell my late mothers Ty beanie collection.
Wow thank you ! I just inherited about 100 beenie babies. This helps so much !
Awesome video I recently ran into some really overhyped expensive Beanie Babies and your information really helped me sort things out
Glad I could help! Thanks!
My 80 year old mother and I just pulled out her 6 tubs full of beanie babies that she has been collecting and saving. She has 100s of them. She even has the larger ones matching the smaller ones. All of them were never played with, tags on, even the plastic sleeve on tag still in tact. Many of the rare ones she has in pristine condition. Where should we try to sell these? Would ours be considered legitimate? I am confused as to how people could NOT have legitimate ones.
I sold a Diana beanie & buddy for 41.00.
awesome helpful video! I just wonder why do they do this? Go through all this trouble of creating a fake listing and fake accounts and having a fake bidding war? Are they just hoping some poor sucker will get caught up in the moment and overpay for it?
I have no idea but that sounds like something someone would try.
Thanks Rebel! I haven't been giving a second look to ANY TY thinking none of them were worth listing! Now I know that certain ones are! Appreciate the time you spend helping us out :-)
Glad it was helpful! Definitely check the comps.
I'm so glad I found this newer video on the topic. I haven't collected them fanatically, but I do have quite a few that I wanted to have to give to my grandkids down the line, but a few weeks ago my daughter texted me and told me she was out yard-saleing with her 4 year old. My grandchild wanted a beanie out of a bin of stuffed toys and my daughter bought it for a dollar. It was a Millennial bear, and when they got home My daughter looked at it closer and Millennial was spelled incorrectly. They looked it up and this was apparently a reported limited error version. They saw others listed on eBay but the 4 year old firmly claims it as hers. As her Mema, I'm taking her side!!
Many of the beanies that have errors are still not worth very much. Definitely check the solds and use the strategies I showed in this video to make sure they're legit sales.
I have an Echo beanie babies with Waves tags.
And Waves with Echos tags
I am someone that is trying to help my sister sell a few legit PVC pellets and a error beanie baby’s that she’s held onto for so many years. I never really sold anything on eBay and she hasn’t neither and want to open an account. We found out that a good amount of her collection can go for a lot. But after watching your video I feel like there won’t be a chance even if we try selling them for a low price to be fair. Even if we’re legit sellers we won’t have a chance because we need seller reviews.
There are very few beanies that are worth more than $100 and most are worth less than $10. As a new seller, you are going to have listing limits so I would not list things that might never sell, like the beanies. Focus on selling items that have a quick sell through rate so you can build your feedback.
Really appreciate all the good info you give! Thanks for all you do!!!!
Hi Rebel, great video! This one was really important as Ty is so hard to price in general!
Great information and thanks for doing all the research for those of us who have tons of beanie babies.
Thank you! I knew these were fake but I didn't know what to look for. This was great.
You're welcome!
Thank you Rebel!! I have been waiting on this one...
I do have Maple in package with mistake, pelican with ! spaced out, McDonald ones in package, Orca with wrong name.. many of the dogs too! Never used & perfect shape.
This is so much good information. I noticed this too. I even hit the "Report" button on some of these, but Ebay does nothing. Why is Ebay allowing these?
Thanks Rebel! A whole bunch of wonderful useful information!
Thank you so much for your time & information. Appreciate it .
Best Wishes from Arizona
I swear the universe knew I needed this video. Just bought a TY Beanie for $1 at goodwill. Got home and looked it up and it's curly the bear with a bunch of errors on the tags. 🤦🏽♂️ I got excited thinking it may be worth a bunch.
Sorry! Funny how the universe works.
Thanks Rebel. I didn't think they were worth as much as you've sold some for. If I get 10 to 20 dollars on most Ty I would be happy!!
Me too! Love selling plush for $10 and up.
Very helpful video! With the few TY Beanie I've listed I put as much information as possible in the description to let people know what to look for.
I picked up the Frogbaby because of you a few months ago and it sold for $30. Thanks Rebel!
Really good video, Rebel! I still like the little ones but the pluffies I learned about from YOU! Thanks!
I still pick up beanies too!
thanks for the great info :) doesn't eBay collect listing and selling fees for these bogus listings? But don't you dare use Velcro or Jacuzzi in your titles or they'll take your listing taken down within minutes! lol Wish they would crack down on these fake accts. and leave us be
Ebay doesn't collect fees until the item is paid for which these were not.
Very informative. Thanks for covering this.
The 129$ jumbo Pluffies dog that you mentioned was not a legit sale was my listing, and was paid for with no issues. Feel free to contact further if you'd like more information about it, not sure why it came across as illegitimate on your end. Just want everyone to know that "Big Whiffer" is actually worth quite a bit, compared to small Whiffer, so don't leave him behind if you see him.
Well dang! Did you have another whiffer listed. I think I saw it and didn't double check that it was a different one. That was a nice sale!
@@TheRebelReseller Yep, I pick up all Pluffies, so I have a couple small Whiffers left, but large Whiffer is about 12" to 14" rather than 8." Several Pluffies come in jumbo sizes, like the gray elephant as well, and can go for twice as much as the standard size!
Appreciate this video. I just recently received some beanies 😊
Rebel thanks for your informative video and information.
Thank you for this! Excellent video, as always.
thank you. Some poor newbies really get sucked in with these nd spend hundreds chasing thousands
I wish eBay would remove those those fake listings and solds. This was a great video! I happened to find a blue bear in Jammie’s this past weekend at a rummage sale. Needs a good washing I will let you know how he sells.
Nice, I love those bears!
Great job Rebel
Thanks for your video Rebel!
Great information really appreciate your insight
Another good one, thanks Dani🎃🎃🎃
Hello on my hubbys account -I’m still going thru all your videos when I get time rebel - I will never have a beanie worth money my youngest who is 8 has had a thing for tags since she was little won’t have a tag on anything lol. Also watch out for high sales when it’s over because people like to send out info asking you to ship it to a different location- saying it’s a gift etc. always verify. My husband just sold something the other day (high dollar) and right away after it ended he received a scam text. Always double check everything have a great day
Sorry about the lines🤦🏼♀
Fingers crossed, no issues. I agree, never change an address. Cancel and let them repurchase. If it is a scam, they won't rebuy it.
Omg I used to buy these all the time I thought they sold for so much. !!!
This was so informative! Thank you!
You're so welcome!
Great video, Rebel!
This taught me a lot thank you
What if you have a brand new account and want to sell your rare beanie babies…? Then your not going to have any seller feedback
If they were actually that valuable, then a lot of long-time sellers would be selling them and they would show on Terapeak as legitimate sales.
We have several Ty beanie babies my wife's grandmother collected over the years and kept in mint condition. How can we know what they're actually worth so we're not asking too much or getting ripped off? We think we have several that we think could be rare and worth a lot of money and we want to sell them.
Thank you for the great information....
I'm not saying that you shouldn't alert people to beware of legit and fake listings because you should, but a person like me, who recently just found 4 big containers of beanie babies that I use to collect in the 90s and am now looking to sell them, isn't going to have any feedback when they create a new eBay account.
You might want to sell some other stuff first and build up your feedback. If you watched the video, most beanies are NOT worth very much though.
Wonderful content! Thank you!
Thanks for the tips!!
I actually have the princess Diana listed and it hasn't even gotten a view..💜
Thank you. Good show
Glad you enjoyed it
HI I ENJOYED YOUR SHOW. I WENT TO FLA AND WENT IN TO MY INDOOR STORAGE AND HONESTLY FORGOT I HAD OVER 800 BEANIES IN TUBS.SINCE THEY FIRST CAME OUT. I AM A VENDOR BUT AM NOW IN NORTH CAROLINA FOR THE LAST 6 YRS. MY DAUGHTER BROOKE BROOK HER BACK AND SONINLAW CUT OFF 4 FINGERS LAYING DOWN A WOOD FLOOR. ANYWAY THEY ARE MINT AND MOST HAVE TAGS BOTH DUSH AND HEARTS . LOOKING TO SELL ALL. WOULD YOU KNOW ANYONE. THANK YOU JOAN
I don't know anyone that would be interested.
thank you veeeeery much
Can you make a video of the valuable ones please
There are so many fake sales that it would be very tedious to sort through. I focus on pluffies and pillow pals when sourcing Ty.
I have a ton of beanies that I inherited and want to sell . I have several McDonald bears still in package. And a few in plastic boxes di bear and I have a very rare Iggy iguana that is missing the spine
Most Ty Beanies are only worth a few dollars at most.
I have thousands of these beanie babies and I've been trying to market them for years and I don't know what to do with them I have rare ones retired ones rare errors ect
Thanks so much very educational
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the info.
What about the Mc Donald's beanie babies?
No, they are not legit sales.
Thank you for sharing💕💕💕
No problem 😊
I have the magic the dragon I’m trying to sell it
If someone has a box in storage and makes an ebay account to sell beanie babies that are rare and original, how do you not look like a scammer or fraud? I am asking becase my mother is about to do this soon. Is getting with a more established seller better for this?
The Princess Diana bears is an example. You can find fake sold comps for $15,000. Search for it on eBay, check the filter to only show items that have sold, then sort by lowest to highest. You will see that the ones that are supposedly rare aren't worth much. Search that way and you can see that it sells for a couple dollars. The high prices are not real sales.
So… I DO have the original TY babies & want to sell them. How do I sell them? I have some with mistakes too! Can you help me? I don’t want to get ripped off.
Most of these plush are not worth what you see on eBay.
I just want to add something to this. I wasn't sure when I started selling, so I set mine high, and then I had 2 people offer high, and I didn't ck them out. so I excepted there offer so now I have them sells on my account so when there is videos like this out here it hurts people also when people are first trying to sell even low prices because if you do have a rare one and have a 0 and no feedback because you havent sold anything yet how are you supposed to ever get any if noone buys because of these videos. I didnt have them in the 1000's. It was the buyer that was the scamer.
Are those reasonable prices? Do people actually get anywhere near 50 for the Princess Diana?
No, most beanies are worth a few dollars only.
I have a massive collection of TY beanie babies, with a lot of the bigger ones and duplicates. I'd love to sell them if you are interested.
Great video! What do people get out of doing all of these fake sales?
I haven't figured it out either.
@@TheRebelReseller so weird!
have you seen the Master Card beanies??
No, I have not.
I think I’ll start a club: Bring back the Beanies!!! Cuz that’s the ONLY Way I’ll get rid of mine 😅
Make a viral video!
I have a mint condition polyethylene is this thing worth nothing it’s got the tag. It’s got the plastic around the tag it’s in the box. Is it worth even selling?
Thanks for the education on these.. is it true that the TY tush-tag WITHOUT THE STAR are worth more? Thanks
I am not familiar with the "errors" or special markings on Ty plush.
thank you so much i atught was for real
I have most ever original beenie babies in perfect condition an I have multiples I am looking to sale an don't know where to start can you please help me??
I will be willing to cut you in an even split profit with you if you can sale the ones I have an believe me I have good ones in great shape so please help me
Most beanies are not worth much. I would make lots and try to sell them that way.
Hi! I'm new to watching. I enjoyed the information. Thank you. Also, I have a poster that is designed for displaying beanie babies that is also from ty. I haven't found any info about this poster. Or any clue to its value. Perhaps you can help me out? I appreciate your knowledge on these. Thank you again! 😉👍♥️
Are you in my Facebook group? Post a picture of it in there so we can see it and help.

@@TheRebelReseller Yes, thank you. I will try to get to that very soon. I would love to know more about. Thank you for your reply!
I googled Beanie Baby’s and almost all of the articles say these toys cost thousands and they thousands … could this be true… or are they just click bait articles?
They are not true. Someone who doesn't know how to check the legitimacy of these sales, might think they are real, but they are not.
@@TheRebelReseller thank you TRR, I appreciate your advice. Just suscribed.
Thanks for the great info, Rebel!
BEANIE BABIES , THE PET ROCK OF THE 90"S
And Squishmallows will be the same. In my opinion.
Thank you for this
I have a slippery the seal. Tush tag says Slippery but hang tag is Valentina tag. Worth anything?
Sorry, I don't know. Most "errors" do not increase the value.
