Advice on Selling Beanie Babies?
« on: November 05, 2012, 09:30:07 PM »
I have a huge bin literally stuffed so full of Beanie Babies the lid can't stay on, I collected those things like mad when I was a kid. The problem is... I never get any use out of them. I mean, I'd keep the ones I had the best adventures with... But there's so many I have little to no attachment to, and they're just sitting there in a bin doing nothing and they have been for years.

I really can't justify keeping them anymore, I have so many other stuffed animals from my childhood/handed down to me from my mom, so I've opted to get rid of a lot of them, cause hey I could use the extra space for pony stuff, sure would be handy when I moved off to college.

But Beanie Babies aren't very collectible, are they? I mean I know if it's a thing then there's probably somebody out there who collects it, but lots of them aren't worth much. So what should I do? Would anyone here be interested in them, should I sell them as lots on eBay?  :what:

That is a very good question, they seem to have lost almost all of there popularity very fast! I would try on here first and then ebay. Do not want to pay any listing fees if you have to.

I'd sell them in small lots on ebay.

Lot them off by animal, that seems to work well.

Or by collection, like the Zodiac beanies.

This.  Small lots if you have odds and ends after those groupings work as well.
