My understanding is if the pin is wanted more that being offered then you can get a good trade for it.
e.g. I have just traded a pin for 5 pooh santas.
The best place I would think if it is highly demanded is to list it on the trades board in dizpins. Or you could try to sell it on ebay and see what you get. IMHO.

You can do a search on Pin Pics by
1. Going to the Home Page
2. Clicking on SEARCH under the SITE NAVIGATION column on the left side
3. If you know the number you can add it on the page that comes up
OR Scroll down and hit continue
4. Scroll to the bottom of THAT page and put in a description.

Voila!!!! Click on the pin and get more information about it.

I put in "Anakin Spinner" and came up with your pin. #22363

30 people have it for trade, 30 people are looking to trade for it.

You also might want to take the Pin Pics QUICK TOUR and look under the HELP section. The site is fairly easy to use.

Hope that helps!

AT WDW, the CM's will pretty much trade for anything (as long as it's a disney pin). Occasionally, a CM would tell us they already had a pin on their lanyard and wouldn't trade us for that one so we'd give them something else and get what we wanted. They don't pick from you; you pick from them and give them what you are willing to part with. They now have CM's that wear green lanyards and they are to pin trade with kids under 12 yrs only. We've been to WDW many times in the last few yrs and have never pin traded until this past December. The kids had a blast and I went broke!!!

I'm a newbie on this site too. In fact, this is my first post. My kids just started pin collecting on our last trip. My son traded for a pin and on the back of the pin it says it is pin #5 of 101. I looked at the website referenced in this post and was unable to find it. I thought maybe if I described it someone might know what we have. It is Sorecerer Mickey with a background of an oldtime projector film with 1940 printed vertically on the right side. Also, on the back under the Disney trademark stamp it says Fotoball........????

Can anybody answer my questions?

Thanks!! :
