Countering Counterfeits
Due to the continuing infiltration of counterfeit Beanies™ and swing tags in the marketplace, we are continuously evaluating different security products in order to provide all True Blue Beans customers the highest quality, innovation, and secure product available today.
We all understand the challenges of collecting Beanie Babies® today, and we will stay on the cutting edge in order to fulfill all your requirements.
All Beanie Baby® cases will be sealed by ULTRA SONIC WELDING using DuKane UltraSonics welding equipment. It uses high-frequency sound waves or vibrations, and when applied to a particular part it creates frictional heat and causes the plastic to melt and join.
The end result is a truly TAMPER RESISTANT case!! This procedure will not detract from the appearance of the Beanie™ or Buddy, because the only visible indication of the weld is a tiny bead of bubbles.
