How does pinpics work?

[FergieTCat]

Can you just e-mail someone out of the clear blue sky if you have a pin that they want (and vica versa) or do you have to set up an account? I don't have any feedback there, but I am beloved on Ebay. Would that help?

Hi Donna,

Just moving this up a little for you!! I have never used the trade assistant, but I do believe you have to be registered (not sure on that, but someone will correct me).

Figgy where are you someone needs your help!!

I have just e-mailed people directly with trade offers and had better resuts overall than using TA. And I have others do that with me.
Without knowing you, not have Dizpins References and no collection on Pinpics, that might be a hinderance.
Just give them your Ebay ID and see if that will work. It may. It may not.
Good luck. (And get yourself set up! It's the best way to trade, IMHO.)

You can certainly use PinPics that way it is a great way to make trades. If you don't have any Dizpins references then perhaps you can work something out with whoever it is for you to mail their pin to them first and upon receipt they will mail you yours. Of course i would only offer that deal to someone with good references on the site.

Then when you do a few trades that way and have gotten a few references from people over there then you can do more normal trades.

I have had a trade with Donna ( a pin for counted cross stitch pattern). She is a wonderful trader. 3 Cheers for Donna!

Thanks Karin!

Thanks everyone else for the input. I'll see what I can do. I really don' t have that many traders or wants. I might just wait for the local pin meet.
