Hey Guys

Well, it’s never come to my attention that so many of you aren’t totally sure which Webkinz are actually retired and which aren’t! Ganz have been very secretive about which Webkinz they retire and which they keep on which makes me wonder if they actually don’t like retiring the little cuties! LOL

Anyway, today I want to actually explain which Webkinz are actually retired and what prices they are fetching on the likes of Ebay. I just want to warn you now - some of the Webkinz prices I will list are not “fantasy” ones… they are actually selling for that price or more!!

Okay, so the first Webkinz that I want to talk about is the Cheeky Dog Webkinz. I actually posted about this yesterday, and how it’s fetching over $1400 on Ebay simply because of how rare it is! It’s amazing what some people will actually pay for a Webkinz but if they want it that much then I guess the money’s not a factor! The Webkinz Cheeky Cat is also in this category but only fetches around $400 on Ebay. This Webkinz is one of the original retired Webkinz, with the Cheeky Dog!

The “new” retirees that Ganz have taken out of production are not fetching as much on Ebay as their Cheeky Webkinz cousins, mainly because they aren’t so rare right now… but I bet their prices will shoot up soon enough!!

The most surprising of these Webkinz retirees is the Basset Hound! This little cutie has been a true Webkinz for ages now and I for one am very sad to see him go, as I am sure many of you are! I don’t know why Ganz have stopped making him, because I was one of the most popular Webkinz but they’ve done it and we will never be able to buy him in shops again!!

The Webkinz Brown Horse has also been retired. I can see why they did this, because they’ve brought out lovely Clydesdale, but still it’s a sad loss indeed. As with the Basset Hound, I’m sure tons of Webkinz Lovers will miss this little guy!

In addition to the Webkinz Brown Horse, the Webkinz Pegasus has also been retired. I know for a fact that this Webkinz has been the favorite of many Webkinz lovers and so I am extremely sad for them to see their favorite go like this. The Webkinz Pegasus will not be sold in retail stores any more!

Along with Webkinz Pegasus, the Webkinz Unicorn has also been retired!!! I can’t get over how many horses are going here, but I guess Ganz will bring out some better horses to replace them!

Ganz have also retired the St Bernard Webkinz! This has been one of the cutest little Webkinz on the planet and I am extremely sad to see it go! The St Bernard Webkinz is already starting to fetch $100 on Ebay!

In addition to all those retired Webkinz… Ganz have also retired two cats! The Grey & White Cat Webkinz and the Orange & White Cat Webkinz!! These have been there since the start of Webkinz and so I am very sad to see them go!

Retired Webkinz are getting worth more and more, and so I suggest if you find any stores with those Webkinz hiding in there, then I strongly suggest you buy them all! You never know… you might make a nice profit on Ebay so you can go out and get some more Webkinz when the shortage is over! :-p

Thanks for reading!!

Hey guys!

As many of you know - the Cheeky Dog is one of the most sort after Webkinz after it was officially retired. Well, I was just taking a look on Ebay to see if any Webkinz were going cheap on there, and found an absolute Webkinz bargain!

It was a Cheeky Dog “Brand New With Tags” Webkinz for the small price of just $1299!! How cheap is that??…. NO! LOL.

I’ve met a lot of Webkinz lovers both locally and online and not one of them would ever dream of paying that much just for a Webkinz. I mean they are great, fun and cute but seriously - $1299 for just a stuffed toy?? You either have to be a gazillionaire or really really love Webkinz to buy one LOL! For $1299, you could even get a real dog and pet it in real life!

 UPDATE: After taking another look around, whole sets of 45 Webkinz including all the retired ones are actually selling for as much as $5000!! There’s me thinking that the Cheeky Dog wasn’t worth $1299 and there’s 45 going for $5000! What a strange land we live in - I’d rather just get the regular Webkinz for $10 or so than spend that much money… it’s crazy!!

Maybe it’s to do with the current shortage of Webkinz across the whole country - making prices for the even rarer ones climb even higher??

I’ll talk about Webkinz more tomorrow - It’s Sunday and it’s sunny :-p

Later,

Steph xx
