Description
Know what your house is really worth before anything is sold, donated or given away. 5 instant PDF books, 408 pages, 292 items priced from real sales. https://eleanorhayes.netlify.app/
Precious Moments figurines have largely lost their market value, but a few rare pieces still command high prices. Check your collection before you donate.
In May of 2026, over 700 listings appeared on eBay with an average price of just seven dollars per figurine. While the market has cooled, this video separates the common items from the rare exceptions. We look at the specific Precious Moments pieces that still sell for thousands and explain why the vast majority of these collectibles are now worth very little.
Before you discard your vintage collectibles, use these identification checks to separate the worthless from the valuable. Most of these items range from seven to twenty-five dollars, making them difficult to move at estate sales. We break down the current resale value of the most popular series so you know exactly what to look for before letting them go.
Covered: Easter Seals 9-inch limited editions, Precious Moments Chapel exclusives (Carthage, Missouri), collectors' club convention pieces, Disney Showcase and Masterpiece figurines, the no-mark Come Let Us Adore Him (E-2011), God Loveth a Cheerful Giver (E-1378, "Free Puppiess"), and Love One Another (E-1376). Also: the story of Sam Butcher, Bill Biel, and Gene Freedman, and what to do with the rest of the shelf.
This is general guidance, not a formal appraisal. Have anything valuable looked at in person before you sell.
