I know when I have a meet or trip to WDW upcoming it takes me about a week to organize. Mine are actually such a mess now I am starting to slowly get them togther now for AK event.

Just wondering if I am the rule or the exception.

Are you one of those organized people who the rest of us want to hate?

Or are you like me and are always saying "Now where is that pin?"
 
I pretty much keep my traders all together in my pin bag.

Then I have a few pin books going -1 is for keepers. another is for possible traders and the others are my DS pin sets 2 which are complete and the other I am working on with the new series of pins. I took a 100 YOD pin book fliiped the pages pside down and backwards and flipped the album so the 100 YODs logo is on the back.

then when I am going to WDW I go through my possible traders and see if there are any i will try and trade. Takes me about 2-3 hrs.
 
I just started tonite getting things organized and ready for the AK pin event trip. I am completely reorganizing my collection and taking a bunch out of my books and putting them into the trader bag. I've been at it for 3 hours so far and have only actually finished 2 pages of the bag.........

It might be done by April. LOL

i have been working all day trying to separate my keepers and my traders from my last Disney trip.

I am expecting a new bag in the mail soon, so I am not organizing my traders too much, as they will go in my new bag.

I keep looking at my keepers and thinking I should get rid of some - but I can not part with any of them.

I have 13 binders that a separate by titles - so when I get a new pin, I put it in the right binder.

I have started a new binder marked "2002" and that is making my life a little easier.

Ok - I am too obsessive - I know - and that is why I am a pin addict.

Pongo does most of the pin organizing around here. Except we worked together before the P-Ball to do a major overhaul on our trader book. He is very good at keeping the keeper binders organized and updated. Also we just started framing some of our pins.

To make a long story short, it won't take much to get ready for the pin cruise.

It depends... Sometimes it can take a few days. Depends on the last meet I was at if i got cleaned out or not... Those Friday night meets were great but man did I go through some pins...
