Do you buy EVERY pin that comes out...

[Fairy Dust]

...or trade/try to win one of each?

I do - although I have a few missing still.

It's really hard trying to see what you have in your inventory though, if only they grouped the catergories together!

 

[SurfingGirl]

I only buy a few things or end up trading them.

 

[KidGoofy]

I only buy the items that just come out and will leave soon.

 

[Peacefully]

Yeah I buy the ones on special and then trade them once I have a full set.

I used to not buy all the pins...500 credits used to be a lot of dough! But now that they upped the credits you get on the games and added haunted mansion, I buy all the pins. I have one of my characters be the pin collector...it was getting to crowded in my main character.
Don't forget to use my Pin Check List to see if you have them all!

[cteddiesgirl]

I buy/trade for all pins.

Of the pins that stay in the stores, I only have 1 or maybe 2 of each.
The others that come out in specials I buy several of to either gift or trade away later.

But I will always keep at least 1 of each for myself.

I totally agree. It's nearly impossible to find pins in our inventories when you have tons of them.
There is no rhyme or reason as to the order of them. Not even in the order that you get them, let alone any other way.

They still need to work on getting the inventories to show items in some sort of order and they need to work on a way to get the pins and clothes out of our inventories.

Bopper your pin list is great ever think about adding pictures to it?

 

[bopper]

I am thinking about it..should I put the big pictures or the small ones? See in the list for examples. The big pix are clearer, but take up a lot of room.

 

[Nanoer]

I usually buy three.. one to keep, one to trade whenver and one to trade half a year later

 

[Foamy666]

I usually buy eight of each, and give about 4 to my friends, keep 1 for me, and trade 3.

 

[BriarRosie]

I used to buy just one of every pin, but since the Haunted Mansion series,
I've bought extras of a couple, then extras of all since the Hotel series.

I get extras for a "rainy day", if a come across someone missing a pin
here or there, I can give them the pin. I have a friend who missed the
Polynesian pin entirely, and I was happy I had an extra pin for her.

My goal is to collect every single pin in VMK. So far, I'm only missing
two pins, and those I have to earn.

 

[aengus]

haha, I buy like 12 of them each, not sure why yet... Especially since the retro tomorrowland pins were re-released. I guess now its out of habit, before I guess I thought they would never come back

 

[disvaclub92]

I do the same as Aengus - I buy 15 of them. Keep a few for friends and a few for that months staff trade if there is one. But with the Pirate Pins, since they were so purdy, I bought a little more.

 

[Iris]

I buy those that I really like. The pirate collection set me back a bit as I purchased extras of all of those.

I do agree, I wish there were some way to keep an order for the pins in the inventory. When trying to trade,it takes me forever to go through the list to find the pins. If they were at least ordered, similar pins togeter, then it would so much easier. Or if we could at least place them in a room on a wall or something similar to the photo album, that would at least help.
