Let’s help new pin traders avoid the cheap pins

Thanks! I've been kicking myself for not getting it when I was down last year. :)

Well if you don't win that auction & feel like discussing a trade, just let me know. My PinPics user is "istolemykidspins".
 
It seems like many here are looking for pin trading lots that are authentic. I just listed one with 64 pins on ebay tonight. ebay id: letscleanitup

These were all purchased or gifts by Disney for my family. They are all authentic Disney Trading pins.

I'm not sure how we ended up with some many, but this is the end of what I have and we're not buying anymore.
 
We just received our order of 100 grab bag pins from mousepinsonline. They are having a sale of $1.75 per pin.

Of the 100 pins, 56 are propins, 4 are regular pins (like what you can buy at the park) and the other 40 pins are either hidden mickeys or cast lanyard pins.

We took a chance. I'm not too pleased and just hope that we can successfully trade the propins with little hassle.

Hope this helps someone else.

Thanks for posting your results. I was looking at mousepinsonline but I haven't placed an order yet.
 
Hi - I am just starting to check out all of this pin information. I found a lot on ebay - I found some of them on pin pincs, but not all of them. Would someone be so kind as to look at this auction and give me their opinion. All but the monorail pin would be for trading.
Thanks

They look good. I hope you enjoy trading! We love the monorails, and my boys really like the busses too!
 
A few weeks ago I purchased a lot of hidden mickey pins from MUBUNNY on Ebay. The seller gave me a super price for shipping since I purchased so many and they were excellent pins and I got them very very cheap per pin. I think that seller has more listed now too.
 
Hi!! Im trying to get ready for our first trip to Disney World in Jan. I am starting to get pins. There are 6 of us me, DH, DD 13, DS 11, DS 2, DD almost 1. I am trying to get 200 we are Park Hopping for 7 Days is this too many pins?? Also I am trying to keep it under $1.50 a pin shipped. I guess from reading this thread thats too low.

I looked at the two auctions and those pins look good. You will have no trouble using them as traders at the parks. I purchased 100 pins for our trip to WDW in September, we were there for 5 days, DH, DS16 and DS14. I wish we would have had more, but we re-traded many of the pins we got on the first day for pins we liked better on later days, so it worked out OK. Anytime you can pick up trader pins for under $2.00 each when you include shipping is a good deal as far as I am concerned!
 
How about these? 250172573257 and 250172582618. these are frome dclfan007. Has anyone bought from this seller. The feedback is positive.
Thanks!

Looking at the pics, those pins are good to go. And with a 100% feedback, you should be fine.

I'd stay away from those monorail name pins. As far as I know, CMs are not supposed to accept pins with names on them. You may have trouble trading those away.
 
Thanks I wont get them.

So I got quite lucky today. I was eating at Wine Country in DLR and organizing my pins while I was waiting for my food to come and the waiter noticed and gave me two pixie dust pins- one to keep and one to pass on to another person. I was uber excited but imagine how psyched I was while in World of Disney, another CM gave me two more pins while I was looking for a pin folder. :goodvibes They all say "Exclusive Pixie Dust Pin" but I can't find it on pinpics, so I thought you guys would be of help. These are the two pins, sorry for the blurriness: (They both say "Where dreams come true..."

Are they worth anything at all?
 
For all those looking for cheap traders run don't walk, run to your local Disney Store. A couple weeks ago they released 30 or 40 different pins. Prices range from $ 5.50 to $ 14.50. The $ 14.50 pin sets are Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 8 pins for $ 14.50 less than $ 2.00 a pin. There are also Fab Five pin sets, Pooh Christmas, and Princess Multi Pin sets, all nice quality and tradable!

Also if you pre order Ratatuille you get 15% off coupon that will make the pins even cheaper.:banana:

Here are your pins:

Pin 54034: Where Dreams Come True - Pixie Dust Pin - 2 Pin Set - Version 3 (One Pin Only)
http://www.pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=54034&sid=4412.1192188165.v2

Pin 52755: Where Dreams Come True - Pixie Dust Pin - 2 Pin Set - Version 2 (One Pin Only)
http://www.pinpics.com/cgi-bin/pin.cgi?pin=52755&sid=4412.1192188165.v2

As far as "worth", their personal value is up to you & how much you like them & value the instances in which you received them. As far as trade value, there are many more people wanting to trade them than requesting them, so it's not super high. Regarding monetary value, you can just do a search on ebay & look at the completed auctions for these pins to get an idea what the market is currently bearing.
