I've crossed over.......

I am no longer in denial.

I am no longer a "recreational pin collector".

I have bids on 6 pins on eBay and am already planning my shopping list for my next trip to WDW.

(....... big sigh........confession is good for the soul)

BTW, I joked with my DH that it would be cheaper for me to fly to WDW to get all the resort pins that I want instead of paying retail for them. His response was, "So, what's the airfare this weekend?"

He is also hooked.

(Not going though. President's weekend airfare is tooooo steep, even for a new collector. I'm getting a few park pins and willsave my resort collection for my next trip.)

Close your eyes....Take a deep breath....Open your eyes.....<i>Yes!</i>

You're not dreaming....there's a whole wonderful world of wacky traders, just waiting to embrace you.

You'll be fine....once you accept that your pins are more important than your family, that your pin budget will exceed your food budget, and pin events are dates that cannot be superceded by illness, jury duty, or family emergencies.

I'm doin' the happy dance....... just won a retired Cirque La Nouba pin auction!

I'm pathetic...... I refreshed my screen every 10 seconds for the last 4 minutes of the auction.

I've really crossed over now!

Hello fellow addicts!

I have been collecting and buying from yearly trips and off e*** since 2000. I have just made my first trades from pic pins this week. I was so excited when I opened the mailbox and found a pin that would not show up later on my credit card as "paypal"!

We are going to WDW and I plan to bring back new pins to trade. For folks that have done this.. is it a good idea? I don't want to invest a bunch of $$$ in pins no one wants.
