Any Pin Collectors?

[disneysophie]

I like to collect Disney Pins and I haven't seen any discussion forum for pins. Please share with me any advice, new pins, strategies or your general likes and dislikes about Pin Trading. Is there a sure place to trade good pins? What is your favorite pin trading spot, etc...?

Yes, I am a pin collector. Let me know what pins you collect. Go to pin traders at Downtown Disney.

Check out the Disney Collectors Board in the Community section here on Disboards. There are quite a few good threads about pin collecting.

The biggest tip I can give you is to not buy lots of pins from Ebay. The big lots are usually fakes or scrappers. There's a great thread called Good/Bad Internet and Ebay pin sellers (http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2213419) that explains what these are.

Pin trading is lots of fun, but highly addictive!

You can easily buy pins at any gift shop and In Animal Kingdom the pin traders have mostly disney animal pins to trade.

June, thanks for linking the thread on the Collectors Board. We work hard to keep it updated, it's really nice to know people are using it.

OP, I hope to see you on our thread. I've never been to WDW so no pin trading tips for me for there, but just collect what you like and have fun with it, that's the best advice I can give.
