Title: Steiff Animals all pretty old
Post by: mmill_1 on January 24, 2016, 07:40:46 pm: We have these from My Mom's family and were trying to get info on any or all of these if they were worth looking to sell or just keep in the family. Most have faded tags, a couple have no tags. Pretty sure they are all Steiff. Thanks for any help.

You can look up the value here !! It starts with the current year and goes backward !! It gives all the information needed and it gives a high and low value so you know the range of what they would sell for !!

Post by: Ipcress on January 30, 2016, 07:44:54 am: I ran the url through the securi.net website and there's no malware or virus on that Steiff website.

As for the Steiffs themselves, i can't see anything too scarce and probably best to check on Ebay, which is the best place for estimating values on toys and collectables like these.

You might be able to get more through a real enthusiast who doesn't use Ebay but it can be time consuming.

Obviously problems with the server again because the pics have disappeared.

Post by: Jlsherf on January 30, 2016, 05:21:20 pm: I get a 404 attachment not found message when I check it. Its the same with the older post I've been reading on here. Very seldom is there still a picture.
