I've been sucked in already! Please help!

Okay, so since I don't know what pins are even available, prices, etc. I've been checking out the mousepinsonline and ebay. Found a couple on mousepins but a ton on ebay. Where do most people buy from. What I'm trying to do first is pick up some pins each of the boys would NOT want to trade. Sean is a train nut and I've found several on ebay, ranging about $7.00 on average. Is this a normal price for a pin? For me, I'm into Thumper, dwarves (especially Dopey), Star Wars, etc. Would there be Star Wars pins for the upcoming weekend and how would someone not attending get one or two of them. Would love R2 D2 and an Ewok. They are my favorites, although my dogs were Luke, Anakin, Chewy and Leia. Still have Leia and Chewy, but Luke and Anakin both turned to the dark side.

Trying to decide what to look for for Ryan. He does love Monsters Inc. Saw a picture somewhere of Goofy as a baseball player. Anything baseball would be great.

Can someone direct me where my best selection would be at low prices? I realize everyone wants the same info but maybe we are all looking for different pins?

Thanks
Mary - I haven't purchased any yet, but several ebay ones are ending today.

The pins at Disney run around $6.50 so if you are looking for keepers, wouldn' it be better to wait and let the guys pick them out at Disney? they would have a ball at the star wars store in Mgm. don't know about a train pin, I need one of those for a little boy in church. I have a tigger playing baseball that you are welcome to if you want it. It is one of the traders I purchased, and I love to encourage little boys! I buy traders from harval@webtv.net for about $2.50 a piece.

I just thought they'd like to start out having a lanyard with a couple of pins that really mean something to them. I'm not guaranteed that I would get to Disney and find a train engine pin like the ones I'm seeing on ebay and he would love that. Since I know nothing about these pins, I don't know what is still available at retail and what is no longer available for purchase. Would love to get the baseball pin. That is Ryan's love. Baseball. I'll pm you about it.

There are lanyards on Dealsatdisney.com for a couple of dollars, too. They are last years, and I bought a bunch. Seems like there is always someone from church, or friends going and i like to get them hooked! PMed you about the pin. I am not a dealer and don't sell pins, FTR, I just like to encourage little guys!
