Best Park for Pin trading?

[Suziequz]

Hi Folks! My husband and I are headed to Disney this Friday (YAY!) to take my MIL on her first visit. We are staying one extra day with the express purpose of pin trading (I am pregnant and have to skip rides, so this is my consolation prize).

Which park would you pick if you could only go to one specifically for pin trading? TIA!

I would go to the countries in Epcot. There are not a lot of people there, and I always find plenty of Hidden Mickey pins. My cousin even traded for a "Happy Boss's Day" pin a few years back.

Hope this helps!

Over 1000 pin traders are decending on EPCOT on 6/26-28. There will be a pin trading night at the Yacht and Beach on 6/25 PM.

We always do the best at MK. I'm not sure if there is any reason but that's just us....we had a hot streak going at HS in January and February, but to pick one park I say MK...it seems like they have the most variety..but go early.

I find the most interesting pins at Hollywood Studios. If Hidden Mickey pins is what you're looking for then the Magic Kingdom is your best bet.

Ive been Pin Trading at Down Town Disney. There are a lot of Cast Members,Pin Traders all around and at Pin Booths. Don't forget to check out every Guest Service's they usually have a Book of pins.In World Of Disney behind Guest Service's but before Jewelry section there are Double Doors where Cast Members/Managers are constantly in and out of all you gotta do is wait for them to pass.There is a Penny Press right next to these double doors.Hope this helps.

I would say HS because 2 yrs. ago my DD10 got a mickey/minnie stop light pin, (my DD's favorite pin).

I personally think that when trading with the Cast Members at any of the parks is totally random, so I can not say one is better then the other. My reason is the pins they wear on their lanyards belong to WDW managment since they don't own them and they don't decide what pins will go on there.

I would say MK because that's where I've had the most luck. Keep a look out for Disney managers as they seem to have a better selection of hidden mickey pins.
