Sadly worth nothing these days despite all the hype surrounding them... i worked for iSold It two summers ago and a woman came in wanting £3000 for her collection, we had a hard time selling groups of them for 1/4 of their combined retail price!!
Anyway - photo - nice idea, composition and execution. Just lacks the "wow" factor :)

I don't see any tag protectors on them. Hey that is something else you can buy!

I thought the Beanie Baby craze was over. Nice thing is you can now get them cheap. When your kid is 45, they will be nostalgic items and worth a lot again. So it may actually be a good investment to send your grandkids to college. Or maybe not. My investment advice is worth what you pay for it.

Fun pic.
