Good/Bad Internet and eBay Pin Sellers

[pixiewings71]

Anyone bought from cindalion813 on eBay?

Sorry no, when I do a search I find nothing.

I just got 25 pins from disney.crazy and they are all fakes. All I can say is to avoid this seller!

Thanks for the feedback and welcome to the boards! I hope this thread is helpful for you.

I am trying to get some disney pins for my girls to trade next time we go to disney. I don't want to have to be buying 1 pin each time from ebay and paying shipping for each pin as that will add up.

are there any LEGIT sellers that sell pins in lots? I know some say that they aren't trading anymore etc. even if I pay $2 per pin it is fine but don't want to buy them in singles paying $2 each plus shipping each pin. would rather just get a few lots and be done. doesn't matter if they are from a set or not but would rather a mix than just a set.....

Not generally no, most of the sellers I buy from are selling singles but they do combine shipping.

I buy booster sets, new in package on eBay. IMHO, that's the best deal and the best way to know they're not garbage. Hope that helps.

If any one gets a few minutes could you help get a bad ebay seller OFF ebay, it will only take a minute of your time. disneytradingpins4u actually says in their auctions they are selling scrappers. auction #270936434489 hopefully if more people report it to ebay we can get these kinds of selllers gone!

Well at least they are "honest" about it..... I copied this from one of their auctions.....

I believe in honesty and full disclosure:
These pins are perfect if you want a cheap way to trade with cast members at the parks. As you can see for yourself in the pictures, they are scrapper quality so they probably aren't ones that you want to keep for yourself but Disney policy requires cast members to accept them in trade.
These are the exact same type and quality of pin that anyone selling a "random lot of pins" that are "authentic" but do not specifically say "not scrapper" in their auction.
These are what I use to trade all the time so I know for 100% certain that there is no way they will deny a trade but I think it is important to be completely clear to avoid problems down the road.

Anyone buy from Jaredkillsbears?

 

[pixiewings71]

No, but I did look at their auctions. They do look legit but without seeing the pins firsthand I can't be sure. It's a good sign that they seem to sell other items in addition to pins.

I don't have a problem with what this seller is doing. He is selling a product with honesty and no deception. If you don't want scrappers, then don't buy from him. Don't get him kicked off ebay for being honest when others that lie are going to keep selling.

Besides we all know scrappers get traded and the only problem people have with that is it reduces the value of "real" pins. Don't want scrappers then don't trade, buy all of your pins at the park or at disneystore.com. I trade for the fun of trading, not to make a profit or find a rare pin. I see a pin I like, I trade for it. I see a pin my son or daughter wants, I trade for it. I don't give my 2 and 5 year old a lecture on the quality of a pin that they want.

I had a similar experience with disney.crazy. I ordered 25 pins and 13 of those were scrappers.

 

[spuds1142002]

thanks for the advice. I bought a group of 5 booster sets that were still sealed in pack. so hope they are legit pins.

Does anyone have any experience with ebayer olivebranchwoodworking? I'm trying to purchase some individual pins for DS4. We are traveling to the world in October for his first trip. I realize there is a chance he will trade for some scrappers, but really would like to start out with legitimate pins.

 

[mom2ohc]

hello!!

I am new to pin trading and have been reading this thread for days!!

I had a bad experience with one seller - domimgood - fakes, cheapies, and annoying etc.. bought two lots too, dummie me!!

but.. was wondering about this seller:

disneypinsandvinylmation

I am looking for tinkerbell sets for my three daughters to have in my suitcase in case we don't get to trade for Tink while there oh, and I am also looking for a bunch to start out trading that are not junk like the ones that I got

Just want to put put a warning about this particular ebay seller: irpliquidators.

Received a lot from them today which was shipped to us in the Uk from US. I am a beginner pin trader and even i can tell they are scrappers - YES they are that bad!! Tinny, VERY discoloured, rough around the edges, not one legit pin in the lot!!

 

[ksantilli]

I just received my purchase of pins on ebay from kidd74069.

They are all scrappers. I emailed him asking if he could replace them with legitimate pins, and he said he didn't think he had anything that he could replace them with that would make me happy. I asked for a refund.

Just FYI

Does anyone have any information on the ebay seller sunanjs? I'm considering buying this lot of 50 Disney Trading Pins as I need some to trade in the parks since I don't want to really give away my two lanyards that I bought from the Disney Store since they are both LE Pins and Lanyards.

Also, I notice there are a few red flags including Pins being "100% Tradeable", they are sold in small bags, but there is a mention of pins being official.

I'm not a strict timeline, but would like some help please. If this is a no go, what are some good ebay sellers that have large lots?

Thanks, and Have a Magical Day!

All items will be shipped to USA by USPS only, which takes 8-15 days from China.

copied from the listing you linked, I wouldn't buy because based on that it appears they are shipping straight from China to you......these would be scrappers. Especially with the price currently at less than $30 for 50 pins! Unfortunately there aren't many legit sellers that list lots of pins, my best advice is to find a seller you trust and buy individual pins from them, or starter sets. That will give a good selection of pins and you won't need to trade your LE's.

I ended up buying some from this seller: angelajuly

it was a lot of booster packs all new and sealed. so they seem legit (I am not an expert on them at all). so if anyone knows anything about that seller. but I found that was the best deal for me.

 

[pixiewings71]

I think angelajuly looks good, I can't say for 100% sure because I've never purchased from them, but their listings seem good.

Just got 3 sets of 10 pins from monkabuda -- he says they were traded for in the parks by him and his sons (or her...). He offered discounted shipping with more than 1 set purchased. Pins were great, shipping was really quick, price was cheap. Only problem was they were packaged too well - took me nearly 20 minutes to get the 30 pins unwrapped (packed in bubble wrap, but it's like the wrap was glued together somehow).

I also bought 20 pins from 02playball -- they never posted a tracking number and didn't communicate in any way,so I didn't know they had been shipped until they arrived, not the biggest deal in the world. I have some suspicions about some of the pins because they're very light, but most of them seemed ok. Don't think I'd buy from this one again.

I'm taking a solo trip in 2 months -- I had thought I was done trading until this trip came up, and I had sold a lot of my pins at a time we needed the money -- now I really wish I hadn't sold them because the amount I got for them didn't really make a difference... oh well, I'll just have to start over!

Just got a small lot (19 pins) from missflygirl909, they are fake and she refuses to take them back even with the proof that they are fake.
