I've been bitten by the pin collecting bug

Ok, I posted just a short while ago asking how to carry a SMALL amount of pins for trading at WDW. You see, I wanted to pick up just a couple for our family to try this pin trading thing on our upcoming trip. Well, you guys warned me - it's addictive and don't be surprised if your 10 pins become 100 pins, etc.

Well, I have just bought a total of over 30 PINS (off of ebay)!!!!

AM I CRAZY????

We have 5 going on trip, so that's ONLY 6 pins each, so that's not too bad, right? BUT, we've never done this before!!!!

:eek:

I need some reassurance that there are other "first time pin traders" out there that got a little carried away with first pin purchases.

I will say, that I feel that I got some good deals on the pins as they average just under $4 each. Now I'm just wondering if we'll ever trade any of them - they're all so cute!!!

Well, thanks for hearing me out. Just feeling a little "crazy"!!!
 
and welcome to the family......

it is a great hobby and you will enjoy every of the thousands of pins you will own in a couple of years !! :-)

It is really good fun to trade in the parks with CM and see if you can find something you like even more than the pins you have now.
And less than 4 USD a pin is a great price !!!

I did see from your counter we will be at WDW at the same time ( 6th - 18th ) if you want to say HI i would be glad to meet and trade a little bit with you !

Please send a PM ! And there are pintrading sessions every thursday evening at 7 pm at all stars sports and friday at 7 pm at the contemporary resort.. If you want to see millions of pins .. go there don't be shy !!

I don't find pin collecting to be habbit forming... A habbit can be broken. This goes way beyond that. Welcome to the family.
