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.
6. Country Of Origin China ( Most Common Vs. Indonesia and Korea )

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