NOTE!!! Without  an Existing Identical Listing to compare it to: according to Miocrosofts' Bing A.I.

The Value of Ty Kicks, the Soccer Bear Beanie Baby, can be attributed to several factors:

  1. Tag Errors: Many valuable Beanie Babies, including Kicks, have tag errors. For example, some Kicks bears have a misspelling of “Gosport” as “Gasport” on the hang tag1. Additionally, discrepancies between the swing tag and tush tag dates (e.g., one reads 1998 and the other 1999) can increase value

  2. Condition: The condition of the Beanie Baby is crucial. Bears in mint condition with original tags intact are more valuable

  3. Rarity: Although Kicks is relatively common, specific versions with errors or unique features are rarer and thus more valuable

  4. Collectibility: The overall demand for Beanie Babies and the nostalgia associated with them can drive up prices. Collectors often seek out specific bears to complete their collections

  5. Concluding: that  Beanie Babies with Dual Canadian/ US tush tags can be more valuable due to their rarity and the unique labeling requirements they meet. The additional value can vary significantly depending on the specific Beanie Baby and its condition. Generally these Dual -Tagged Beanie Babies can fetch higher prices sometimes 10-50% more value than their Single-Tagged Counterparts. ”

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