I was just wondering if anyone will be in Epcot for the Disney Pin Celebration at the end of next month? We arrive on the last day of it, the 29th. I'm hoping to get there in time to check out a couple of pins. I don't know though. Do you think they will be all gone by the last day? I really like a couple of the road sign designs they made for this!

This will be my first year attending, so I can't really help answer your question. However, I have always wondered what the public trading day was like. I would think that the availability of the pins you want would depend on he edition size and the sought after value. You may also find that people buy extra sets and then try to sell them. I am not sure if that is a good idea or not. I think you could potentially get stuck with pins that you have to sell below your cost in order to get rid of them.

Our RSPs are supposed to come in the next week, so I can't wait to see what I get!

Good luck!
 
Thanks for the reply! Did you get to order some of the pins in advance? I mainly like the one that looks like a historical sign, it's too cool! I was looking at some of the other things, some are pretty pricey, like framed sets, but are really cool as well...Maybe someday ;)

Yes, if you register for the event (and pay the fee!) you get to pre-order pins. You submit a list in order of your most to least desired and then there is a lottery draw (random selection process) before the event and they let you know which of your pins you were chosen for. We had to submit our list by July 5 and the results are due out this week.

I heard thru a bird that the only thing that sold out was the Figment sculpture with 2 pins. However, I heard many items were close to being gone! So, cross your fingers! You may get what you want!
 

This will also be me and my friends first time attending the actual event this year. Last year we went to public day and most of the pins were sold out unfortunately. Still it was so much fun that we decided we had to make the next event (this years). We’re getting so excited! :cool1:
