When the Ty Company announced "The End" of Beanie Babies, Collecctors were not shy about saying how they felt. Here are a new comments made in a Beanie Baby Poll.

• I personally believe Ty is trying to force us into the buddy buying. I am not going for it. I am not even buying the club edition buddies.

• This is like NEW COKE..... buy now because this is the end....... but back by popular demand.... CLASSIC BEANIE BABIES and NEW DIET BEANIES

• Why is anyone interested in such an obviously intentionally manipulated product?

• If this is the END of Beanies, why did Ty just open up Ty Japan? and plans for Ty Germany and Holland??

• I'm tired of all this game playing. I'm ready to give up collecting beanies.

• As a retailer of Ty products, Ty is a very smart man and he really knows how to market his product. He is out to capture the market again.

• I think it is the end of beanie babies but the begining of buddys, he has alot of collectors hooked on them and just released five new buddys > $$$$$

• I think it's just a ploy to get people to buy all the left overs so they can clear the shelves for the New 2000 beanies

• I hope that this is not the end because I collect along with my Mom and daughter and we really have a great time doing it.

• It was and is an artificial market created only as a collectible that manipulates the collector and brings profits to the unscruplous. It will end.

• I am collecting for 3 grandkids and I think that he has gone way too far overboard as it is,however,I feel he has something else up his money making.
