Hi. I bought a bunch of pins from ebay. They appear to be real pins, although not my choice in characters. In your experience, have you ever heard of anyone having trouble trading pins from ebay?
Thanks.

I don't think you would have a problem.

Unfortunately, some of us have been burned by purchasing pins off of ebay. Check out this thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2099914

We normally only buy pins off ebay to trade. We get the Lot of pins that are randomized so we don't care what characters we get.
We have never had a problem though with the few we have bought for our collection. They are always in great shape.

IME it really depends on your seller. I've received some amazing pins from eBay, I've also received some scrappers. That said, you should have no problems trading your pins with CMs.

I've purchased pins from eBay for my DD to trade, and have never had any issues. I have always purchased from different sellers as well (whatever I could find that was cheap). They may or may not have been "scrappers" -- I'm not a Disney Pin Detective. No one ever said anything we DD traded any of them, so I assume either they were OK, or the CM just didn't care.
