The value of something is what someone is willing to pay.
Pretend you are buying and check sources like eBay and see what they are selling for and that is what you can expect to get. Most of them are not bring in their original retail price.
If you are lucky and find someone who missed buying the ones you have and need them to complete their set you will maybe get a little more.
Rare Ty Beanie Babies
Hi Briana, Unfortunately, Beanie Babies are not even worth their original value anymore. That fad has come and gone. I see them at garage sales for $1.00, and the people say nobody will even pay that. I have hundreds of Beanies ( some of them i paid a lot of money for ), and i wish i could get back the money i paid for them, but i know that won’t happen. I use to sell at Beanie shows, but got out of it a couple years ago when the craze started to die, and nobody wanted to even pay what they were worth anymore. Especially now with the economy being so bad, nobody is buying collectables at all. I will just hold on to all my rare ones and maybe someday they will be worth something. All the other ones i will just save for my grandkids ( if i ever have any ) to play with. Best of luck

As with most fad collectibles, value is high for a short period(a few years) then they are worth almost nothing. Beanie Babies fall into this category as well. It not realistically plausible that you will make back what you initially put into them , much less make a profit. The market for Beanie Babies has been dead for a few years now. A few have some value as collectibles associated with their genre. For instance you can get about $10-15 for the skeleton in black robes and the tye die grateful dead bear.

On Ebay you can make a ebay store. You can put in pics of every one, and people bid and out they go. If not, webs.com gives free templates for websites that you could make one with your own web store type template.
