Build-a-Bear Stocks Sky Puppy Moth Plushes Online

As a reseller, you’re probably already familiar with common categories of items that resell; shoes, trading cards, graphics cards, the usual. What you might not know is that it’s a big, weird world full of big, weird stuff you can flip.

And that includes Build-a-Bear Workshop plushes. We’ve covered these a few times, with plushes like the Emo Axolotl, Longhorn, and Bluey reselling for two to three times their retail prices. Build-a-Bear produces several seasonal and rare plushes that are perfect for flipping.

One of these is their Sky Puppy Moth. These fuzzy plushes are based on the cuddly poodle moth that attracted significant internet attention in the last few years, and have been one of Build-a-Bear’s most popular new offerings.

It’s not clear if the increased availability will affect the market for these plushes, but we can say that they’ve been pretty profitable up until now.

On average, Build-a-Bear Sky Puppy Moth plushes resell for around $150, more than four times what they retail for. We haven’t seen any sales following this week’s listing online.

One thing to consider is that we just know the actual stock numbers for this plush. They are not labeled as limited edition, although Build-a-Bear is limiting customers to two per order. It’s possible that they are listing them online to clear out the remaining stock.

And it’s equally possible they’ll continue churning them out to meet demand. The fact that we’ve seen them resell for a profit is a great sign, but obviously we have no way of predicting the future. Build-a-Bear does offer 90 day refunds for most plushes including this one, making this a fairly low-risk flip.
