New to Pin Trading, Info Request

[mamawanavacation]

Well three of my kids have gotten the pin trading buzz. I figured it would be good inexpensive souvenirs for the kids, lol! So much for that! Well now that they are in full swing and trading with cast members I want to research all about pin trading so I can help them make smart decisions.

Can you guys direct me to some good websites that explain about the whole thing including which pins are good ones to get?

Thank you!

Unless you plan on them collecting hundreds of pins and spending hundreds of hundreds of $$$(or more! ), the best advice we ever got was to collect what you like!

There are thousands of Disney pins and it can be very overwhelming, especially for children. My daughter loves Tinkerbell, so her collection of pins(300+) has alot of Tink. She also loves to find a pin that is in a set that she likes and loves to search the parks and internet for the rest of the set.

Both of my kids love to collect Limited Ed. pins just because they know that there are only so many of them.

We get our traders off of Ebay for around $1.00-$1.50 a pin but it still adds up pretty quick when you by 150 at a time to trade!
