Let’s help new pin traders avoid the cheap pins

As you are in the UK I wouldn't buy them. They will not trade those pins in Disney Paris.

Does anyone have any experience buying from dispins? The pics look great, but the description does not mention what is on the back of the pins. Although his/her feedback looks pretty good.

Looking to stock up for our next trip.

I have a pin order from dispins due any day now. As soon as I get them I will let you know. So far so good with the transaction. The pins appear to be authentic. Hang tight a day or two if you don't hear from someone else.

I have purchased from "dispins" and was very pleased. One pin was broken, and I received an immediate response and apology when I e-mailed him. The seller did not have another one of the same pin, but he sent a really nice replacement. I just sent the broken one back to him in a padded envelope. Very, very nice man.

Just wanted to follow up. Got my pins from Dispins all were authentic pins some even attached to the original pin card with the price still on it. All packaged and shipped nicely and promptly!

I live in the UK and often the postage is huge to ship here so I would like to use a UK ebay seller

I buy a lot from Dizpins.com ezboard sellers.
I also buy from andyorangeplanes, welshandproud, thorsteng , the-disney-pin-man, megaelch, a couple of these are european but I have had good experience wth all of them. I have also bought from flameochrist in the US as their postage costs are great.
Pm me if you want to ask anything.

Has anyone bought from cfc93? This person seems to have lots of auctions currently. But the pictures aren't very clear so I am a bit concerned.

Has anyone purchased from dizneypinzzzzzz on eBay? All the "right" stuff is in the description as far as no sedesmas, no propins, no Europins, etc. - but first hand experience and expertise is appreciated. Thanks. Oh, the item number is 200110164471. Just getting started into this already ultra-addictive hobby!!

I just got mine yesterday from him and am very pleased. I got 25, no duplicates. All had the black mickey head pin-back. Here's a rough estimate of what I got:

5 Hidden Mickey Pins
3 Limited Edition
4 Lanyard Collection
13 Regular traders

I got a good mix of characters, too. 6 Minnies, 1 Goofy, 1 Donald, 1 Mickey, 3 Princesses, 2 Piratey, 3 movie character, 1 Movie Rewards Pin, 1 Wilderness Lodge Pin. The only ones I personally wasn't thrilled with were alphabet pins that if you have them all spell Disneyland, according to pinpics they are: Pin 43416, Pin 37039, Pin 44969, Pin 44977, Pin 37035. All the pins have the official pin trading logo on the back so I assume that they are okay to trade....

I know I sound like a broken record here but a BLACK Mickey Head back is NO indication that a pin is a legitimate Disney Pin. Only pins made after 2001 or 2002 have the Mickey head back. Some Cast Pins especially those from WDI STILL have the metal backs.

Look for the ©Disney on the back and check the pins on Pin Pics. The pins pictured look like legit pins but it's best to check Pin Pics. The letter pins are from a framed set.

Sorry if I was confusing. I understand that the mickey head back was no indication of legitimacy. I included that statement as info to the person interested in this persons pin lots. I just wanted to let them see what I had recieved from this person. All the pins I got have the official pin trading logo and disney copyright. I had already checked pinpics but appreciate the info.

I just purchased the following pins not knowing that knock off pins are so prevalent (I know the buttons aren't tradeable). Can anyone tell me about these pins? I'll take better pictures once I get the pins, if this picture isn't clear enough. Thanks!

EDIT: the auction number is 330135223751 since my pictures and link don't seem to be working. Thanks!

 

[NHMickey]

They look fine. I would be surprised if those where knock offs.

 

[Candid]

I apologize if this has been covered in a previous post but can someone tell me if you can trade Disneyland pins at WDW?

Thanks

 

[DisneyJo]

Also what about Disneyland Paris? TIA

 

[NHMickey]

Yes you can

 

[Candid]

Yes you can

Thank you NHMickey!

Has anyone previously dealt with "Miami Disney Pins" on ebay?

Has anyone bought from cfc93? This person seems to have lots of auctions currently. But the pictures aren't very clear so I am a bit concerned.

I too am wondering about these two sellers, im watching quite a few pins from both sellers and wonder how they have soo many duplicates
