How do I find out what my bobblehead is worth?
Take a photo of it with Bobblehead Scanner. The app identifies the player, team, year and edition, then searches live eBay listings for that exact item and shows you the range sellers are currently asking.
Where do the values come from?
Values come from current eBay listings, which means they reflect asking prices rather than completed sales. They are a live read on what sellers want for the item today, not an appraisal.
Are stadium giveaway (SGA) bobbleheads worth anything?
It depends far more on the player than on the giveaway. Teams hand these out in the tens of thousands, so the print run alone rarely makes one scarce, and a giveaway for a role player can be worth very little. But demand routinely overrides the print run: recent giveaways for in-demand players have resold from around $135 into four figures. Early giveaways, variant editions seeded inside a large run, error or recalled versions, and sealed examples are the other cases worth checking. Bobblehead Scanner flags a scan as a stadium giveaway so you know what you are holding.
Is Bobblehead Scanner free?
Your first 5 scans are free, with no account and no sign-up. Bobblehead Scanner Pro unlocks unlimited scans, unlimited collection storage, collection value tracking, and automatic cloud backup for $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year.
Does it work on vintage bobbleheads and nodders?
Yes. Vintage papier-mâché nodders, modern stadium giveaways, mascots and limited editions all scan the same way. Older and rarer pieces are harder to identify confidently, so photograph the base and any nameplate text clearly for the best result.
Is my collection private?
There is no account and no sign-up. Your collection and its photos live on your device. Scan photos are sent over an encrypted connection only to identify the item and are never stored on our servers. Pro subscribers get an encrypted cloud backup of their collection details, which never includes photos. Read the full privacy policy.
