5.0 out of 5 stars really informative!, June 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Beanie Babies (Paperback)

I just got started collecting, and this book has given me all the background information on what to expect. It's impossible for any book to keep up to date with the actual Beanies, but you won't find a better guide to the hobby itself.

5.0 out of 5 stars The definitive book for collectors., April 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Beanie Babies (Paperback)

Some many books on BBs are simply price lists or have a very limited period of usefulness. This one is different and will be my reference of choice. There is no way to predict what Ty will do, but this is the book that can track what has happened to date. The section on spotting counterfeits is invaluable and has saved me from making a couple of costly mistakes. I also got some chuckles from the creatively posed beanies in the nice color photos. Right after reading my own copy, I immediately sent a copy to my beanie-crazed young nieces.
