The best way to find out if anyone is looking for a specific Beanie Baby to add to their collection is to list it for sale. But be prepared to be disappointed. As others have mentioned, the Beanie Baby market died some years ago, even for the ones we'd like to think are rare.
Example: I shop frequently at a local church-run thrift store. They have two giant bins filled with "stuffies". The large ones are $3, the medium ones are $2 and the smalls are a buck. When the bins threaten to overflow, all of them go down to 2/$1. Have purchased several for a small great granddaughter that I babysit. And some of them are the supposedly "rare" ones. Yes, 2/$1.
