Beanie Babies can be surprisingly valuable due to several factors:

1. Limited Production: Many Beanie Babies were produced in limited quantities, making them rare and highly sought after.
2. Tag Errors and Misprints: Beanie Babies with errors on their tags or unique misprints can be particularly valuable.
3. Retirement: When a Beanie Baby is “retired” (no longer produced), its value often increases due to scarcity.
4. Special Editions: Beanie Babies released for special events or as prototypes can fetch high prices.
5. Condition: Beanie Babies in pristine condition with their original tags intact are more valuable.

These factors create a sense of rarity and exclusivity, driving up demand and prices in the collector’s market.
