I managed to make it to the closest store to me with an hours drive..I got there at 9:30..there were only 2 people waiting and one of them was a CM..they had about 24 of each pin minus a couple as each CM was wearing a lanyard containing all 8 pins..the CM who was waiting outside with us took 3 sets of each..the lady in front of me took 5 (!!!) sets of each..and I took 2 sets..we were the only customers in the store at the time..by 10:15 when I left..there were 2 Walt and Mickeys on the racks, and a few of each of the others..it's just not fair...they should either send more of each..or limit to 2 sets or something like that..they are creating a demand that they don't intend to meet!..at least the pins are reasonably priced compared to what the parks charge..6 of them were $4..and the Pooh dangle and Tigger slider were $5..I looked on E*** when I got home..one seller is asking a buy it now price of $34.50 for the Walt and Mickey one..wanna bet they get it too?..since it only costs Disney about a dime to make the pins, and the 100 year celebration is expected to last 15 months..what is the sense in limiting each store to 24 of each pin????
