Just saw the pins on the HSN

[NHMickey]

they are nice. They are saying they are LE but they showed the backside of one and it only had the Disney name... No LE #. Also they are saying Exclusive edition as well...

 

[MichelleB]

I hate to say it, but I didn't like them at all. They don't even look like Cinderella. Glad this is one I can pass on.

 

[BeautyLLM]

Wonder if there will be a Beauty and the Beast set??

 

[MadStrawberry]

they are very expensive for one pin.

Well I bought one...and had to sign up for HSN in the process. After hearing a lot of comments, though, about the price and other things, I am considering cancelling. I know you can send the pin back within 30 days for a refund, so maybe I'll take a look at it first.

 

[NHMickey]

I would look at it first... Ya never know...

I checked their website. The pins are on there. It is a monthly ship thing and the price is for the entire set. I can't remember if there were 4 or 5 in the set. That makes the price a bit more manageable. Once you get the whole set, you get a sleeve that fits around all of the storybooks.

It's a cute set, but I'll not be purchasing them.

When I read it I thought it said t hat each pin was $23.50 - not sure that was for the whole set.

Did anyone else read it that way.

I liked the pins from afar as I love Cindy pins, but when I enlarged the pins she has a really funky looking face.

I was good - I passed on it.

Yes, it's definitely $25 or so per pin, not for the whole set.

If they were Snow White pins I would probably pay the price. When I get this one I'll let you guys know how it looks and if I'm going to keep it.

Disney© Cinderella Storybook Pin Collection
HSN Price: $27.50
S & H: $5.95

It definitely lists the price as a set (collection) so it would appear that the price is for all four pins, not for just one pin.

Check out the line that says the pins each have two backs and are individually priced.

That is what is throwing me here.

I called HSN to inquire about the cost. I was told that the price is for the "set" of pins. You pay the initial price, and then are on an automatic shipment plan for the other 3 in the series. Hope that info is indeed correct.
Sue Ellen

 

[Mickey7811]

Wow Sue Ellen, then that is not bad at all - and that seems to make more sense then it being $27.50 per pin.

Now I am rethinking this - they are kind of neat and I do love those Cindy pins.

[NHMickey]

That is not bad...

Rather than wait and try to call to order at HSN, I ordered by computer. There were several Disney items listed on the two pages.....the first being the "collection" of four books with a pin in each, to be mailed over a four month period. The second item was the first book and pin entitled "A Dress for the Ball" I think. Both items were listed as $25.50 plus $5.95 shipping which would lead me to believe that EACH book and pin will be the same price. My receipt from HSN says "Cinderella Storybook Collection" so it's about as clear as mud as to what the actual cost is.
