Need advice on whether to buy pins or not from a seller.

hey everyone,
I'm looking at a pin lot from a seller,not from ebay though. They sent me pics front and pack of all the pins. I've been checking on pin pics and most of the pins are listed but they have Please be advised that there are unauthorized versions of these pins being sold from China directly to individuals not associated with Disney. No one can guarantee the authenticity of this pin. written in the description.

My question is if anyone would purchase them? I'm kinda undecided,they could be fake,but then again they could be real. IDK what to do. What do you think?

Where are you buying these pins? That's my first question, you said they are not on eBay?

this person is on a forum I frequent looking for a place to sell the pins,I'm confused though bc I *thought* this person said that she doesn't sell on ebay,but I went to ebay with her email address and it says that they have a valid member ID,but since I haven't had any transactions between this member ebay won't give me their ID

A few pins weren't found in pin pics database,the coloring was really off on maleficent bc part of the cape is white and none of the pics of maleficent have white capes.....

Well if she's selling them for cheap I would probably buy them. It's a judgement call that's best left to you, if you do buy them and they are all bad then you've wasted money, if it's not an issue to you then go for it.

I'm would not buy them, especially if they were expensive. I (personally) would rather pay more for pins that I was sure were 'real'.
