Disney Pin Exchange - Sent/Received thread

[cvemom]

Checking in to see if our package arrived yet, but it doesn't appear so. I knew it had a longer than normal trip so be patient but...


Cassidy's package arrived yesterday from Poohnatic. She got 2 cool pins.

A Disney Store "It all started with a mouse" (CM Exclusive)

And a Disney Saratoga Springs pin

She loves them both. She became our resident Pin Trader after meeting John Rick of the New Jersey Pintraders at the Allentown Meet. I think we've created a 'monster' here. Pin Trading is now "her thing"
Thanks again Poohnatic! aw:

I'm waiting on one last set of pins... I'm thinking they may come on Tuesday??? Not sure where they were coming from though...

I really like the "pin trading" idea... I've been wishing there was a way to pin trade from here in the St Louis area... Count me in on the next pin exchange... either way!!!

Those may be the ones from my daughter they are coming from Ontario Canada so customs may have held them up some I hope they get there on Tuesday. If not let me know.

Someone suggested that the pin exchange be more interactive

I guess everyone would send the organizer a pin as the starter set - then sends the box to #1 on the list - who then takes out the pins they like (maybe a max of 2-3) adds in the same number of pins they put in (pin trading) and sends it to #3 on the list - who trades thier pins and sends to #4, etc.

we would really have to work on the logisitics - but that could be fun - also people could join in as the trade went along -

there would be the initial investment of one pin to be in the trading circle but it sure would be fun to pick from a group of pins!

Count my 2 DD's in on this if we do it again. I am not sure but I think I get almost as much enjoyment out of this as they do LOL. I truly am just a little kid trapped in a grown ups body.

And a Disney Saratoga Springs pin

That one is a Cast Member Limited Edition I used to collect those. I was sorting through stuff and I figured, young girls LOVE horses. I've got boys, so I was crossing my fingers that she did like horses.

I would be glad to organize one if nobody else is up for it! I love doing these things! They are so much fun! Just let me know if anyone is up for it. We leave in 12 hours for Disney but will be back Saturday and I will check this thread. I can do one either way, the trade off and send out one big package all together to one person at a time or the way you guys did it last time. Just let me know. The more I think about it the more fun it sounds!

Count me in for the next time that we do this! I am already organizing pins for trading and would love to do this again - really soon! I too would be willing to host or to get this off the ground - it is a great way to "meet" fellow pin traders (who are the nicest around)!

I just wish we had a pin trading group in the Southwestern CT/NYC area that I could do this with more frequently.

Thanks to everyone and contact me once this gets off the ground again! I am sure that my two DD's who also collect would be interested in joining this fun activity!

Will you host again?

You guys have been so cooperative and made this so easy - I'd love to!!!!

 

[Pooh67_68]

Well it sounds like a lot of people want to do this again.

But lets wait until this one finishes first, ok?

I just finished a very lengthy thank you & it went away? So here goes again.

Thanks go out to Poohnatic & Webprinter

I got 4 pins the other day (see previous post) to Webprinter. Since I had asked for two names, I thought she got me twice. Boy was I wrong. She sent me two extra pins. Thanks so much webprinter.

Yesterday I got a package from Poohnatic. She sent me 3 pins. A figment pin that was on my wants list.

Update on my nephews. I talked to them today.
Sam got a very cool pin. I wrote the name down when I did the last email. I believe it was a stitch light up pin. He said it was in his "keeper" pouch, so it was pretty special. I told him a 2nd one was on the way. thanks so much to the person who sent it.

Nate got two really cool pins. A Stitch great escape pin & a Mickey & Goofy one. He loves them both and they are in the "special" part of his pin pouch. He said, please tell the person (of couse he threw everything away but the pins) who sent it to me that "they rock".

I just bought the both of them Stitch hip pouches to put their traders in so they could put their keepers in the Mickey head pouches I got them for Christmas. They both love stitch, so thanks again to both of the people who sent them out.

I haven't heard from 3 people who I sent pins to? Unfortunately, this was the first time I sent pins so I feel pretty chintzy only sending two pins. Please let me know if you don't like the pins I sent you & I will send you two others. I am leaving for WDW tomorrow but will return next sunday.

Take care, Penny

Don't feel bad, that is all you were supposed to send. Some people send extras because that is what we do in the other exchanges too. As long as you send the amount listed in the exchange, than you are not obligated to send anything else.

Just checking on everything I have sent.

Sam Evans should have received an American Stitch pin by now. Stich is wearing a oversized shirt and holding an American flag I believe. There should be another arriving anyday now.

I know Julia received one pin, but the other should be coming anyday as well.
