Disney pin lots from eBay!?

[Mike0828]

So has anyone purchased pin lots off of ebay!? Been searching a bit on there and found a few sellers who I'm considering purchasing from, just wanted to see if I could get some feedback on here first. About $2 per pin, claim to be no euro,propin, sedesma, etc. and have near perfect feedback.... just looking for some pins for the future Wife and I to be able to trade while on our honeymoon next month.

First off, congrats on your upcoming wedding!!

I've heard that you shouldn't buy a lot that doesn't show exactly which pins you will be receiving. A lot of people have mentioned that they may get a few good traders and then the rest are junk. It's hard to determine via the feedback b/c not everyone can truly tell if the pins are authentic or not. I have seen a lot of starter lanyards on eBay that contain multiple pins that equal out to about $2-3 per pin. I would suggest getting those instead. I've never heard anything bad about those, but you just never know. People are also selling sets that you could buy at WDW on eBay. You might check those out too.

You might check out this thread, http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1741589. It has a lot of helpful info about traders.

Good luck!!

You can definately get unlucky and find some bad pins... I would stick to buying those pins where you can see exactly what you are getting.
I personally just purchased 8 sets of 4 pins each, all sealed nursery rhyme and spooktacular mystery sets. After all was said and done with Shipping I paid about $3.50 per pin. A great deal considering they are all limited edition pins and almost everyone would be very happy to get these in a trade!
Just shop around and be sure you know what you're getting is my advice.

A good place to check out pins to get an idea about a particular pin is:

there is a search engine on the site that can help you find almost any pin and there is quite a bit of info on the pins!

Hope you find a great deal!!!
