I’m noticing that there are some McDonalds 1999 Teenie Beanie Babies that are selling for anywhere between $50 – $100 or more that specify Error Tags. These errors are that the bag shows 1999 but the Tush Tag shows 1993 and the single word spelling for the city of Oakbrook on the tag, which should be Oak Brook, as it is spelled on the bag.
Are these actual known errors that would warrant a higher price? Or are these instances of people who don’t know this is common and paying a lot more than they should?
