Found - Cheap trading pins for sale near WDW

[paulasillars]

We were on our way back from Animal Kingdom today and stopped in at the Hope for Humanity thrift store just off US27. They had a huge pin board of real Disney trading pins for $US2 or 3 for $US5. This is a great deal for anyone wanting some cheap trading pins. They had a lot of hidden Mickey pins as well as Disneyland ones.

Address for anyone interested is 110 Polo Park Blvd, Davenport. Its about 20 minutes drive from Animal Kingdom.

I am always suspicious of cheap pins - how do you tell if they are authentic?

They are the same ones I have seen on cast member lanyards being traded in the parks. I have a fairly extensive collection and they looked to be real.

If you google some info on authentic disney pins, it's typically really easy to tell real from fake. I can't remember any markers off the top of my head, but I remembered thinking it would be pretty simple when looking at the articles I read.
