A SMALL FORTUNE COULD BE IN YOUR ATTIC

Ty Princess Diana Beanie Baby

The purple Princess Diana beanie baby was created shortly
after her death in 1997  to raise money for the Princess of

caused a massive frenzy and they have been collecting dust
in people’s attics ever since, waiting for them to rise in value. 

The question of what the Ty beanie babies are actually worth
is disputed. Some say they aren’t worth more than $5-$7 while
others speculate there are some valued at over $500,000.

The deciding factor is allegedly the stuffing, with the first
edition filled with PVC pellets, therefore, getting a higher 
valuation.
