    Default Official Pin Swap December 31 Exchange

    The last pin swap was such a hit that we are going to do it again. Drawing names will be held December 31st and then we will have a few weeks to get our pins together. This will be for 2 official disney pins. Lets make this one a success too. When you are ready to sign up pm me with your email address.

    Thanks

    I would love to have some Canadians involved in this. There are disney fans everywhere.

    The last day to sign up is the same day as the drawing so December 31st. You have a great amount of time to get some pins together. I think everyone can vouch for it being a lot of fun.

    I will start off by saying Brian was my secret santa and he did a great job with two hidden mickey pins.

    Thank you

    Kim

    I would love to participate. But, I am a complete novice at pin trading. I only have a few pins and none that I would be willing to trade Anyway, can someone recommend a website or ebay merchant that sells quality pins.

    I know there are some pins that are considered "cheaper" quality than others. For you experts, what are the preferred brands and the brands to avoid? What other tips or pointers can you give a newbie? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

    The best way to ensure you have a tradeable official Disney pin is to buy them at WDW or DL... Or DisneyShopping.com.

    Now you can buy on ebay and the pins to avoid are europins, propins, Sedesma. Their are alot of fake/unauthorized/counterfeit pins on ebay.

    Now i am not saying this to scare you away from ebay, as even i have bought pins from ebay, but it usually involves some homework to try and make sure your getting real pins..

    I hope this has helped.

    and if you just getting started look for the semi-annual pin sale or good discount codes from disneyshopping and you can get pins for a far price to trade or even collect... and you can order by mail from wdw, but the shipping can kill you....
