Eeyore's Pal (and family)-- some great trades......such a nice family....Mary was a little sweetheart! She loved showing her pins off! And a slick trader too!

Alberto and Carina-- A beautiful charming daughter, ALberto! (yes, okay..she gets it from YOU!) Another super little trader! Thanks Alberto for my St Pat Pooh PIN......woohoo!

Shirley38 and John 59----Once again.....Shirley took such good care of me! My Animal Kingdom collection got a MAJOR boost.....never met such a silly and generous woman! I think she would have traded her sweatshirt off her back if I said I wanted it! SMOOCH! And John.....he just loves the kids! And getting them started with pins!

I know I am missing some people..and some I did not even get a chance to talk to or trade with! There never seems enough time! You know, I came to this meet with a few measley(sp?) traders, all from 2000 and walked away with beautiful pins! Just the epitome of what all this pin craziness is about.....Friendship and Kindness.......I feel like the luckiest girl in the world!

Thank ALL of you for making this a wonderful day!!!!!

A big thank you to Chip & Dale. My DH & I had a great time. Thank you
to all we traded with. Everyone is so nice. Another big thank you to Lauri
Matt for TDS pin we were unable to get on Sat. It was so nice to sit with
friends & to forget all the troubles in the world even just for a few moments.
God bless you all. Peggy Anne

Thanks to Chip and Dale for arranging this fun time.
We had a great time too, time does fly by when trading.

It is great to see the crowd getting bigger and better each time.

My son and I are still learning. We were so excited to learn
about dizpins.com too.

So, when is the next one....Hmmmm!

 

[Chip and Dale]

Actually it was my pleasure to "plan" the meet. What could be better than meeting great people, both new and old, and trading for some great pins. Thanks to all who came. This meet was indeed a record. At one point, I counted 30, maybe 35, people! That beats our old record of 21.

The next meet......watch this board for details!

PS If you were there yesterday and were a newcomer to our group, please e-mail me with your name and e-mail address, so I can add you to the "meet list".

Thank's to Chip & Dale for a great Philly Pin Meet.

Met some new Pin Peeples & some old---scratch that----familiar Pin Peeples.

Made about 25 trades with my kinda people. Of course it was the youngins. It was competition at it's best. I was tough. I was relentless. Never waivering. Eyeball to eyeball. Who would flinch first ??? Would it be me the SUPERTRADER or the competition ????

It was a fun day.


SUPERTRADER, john59

Had a good time at the meet. I made 25 trades I hope they were all fair. Only one pin I did not get was the Snow White spinner.

I gave John a bag of pins to give to kids or trade. Also the adults were allowed to take a pin from the book and replace it with another rack pin.
This did help some people as some of the pins were from Ca. and a lot of the new rack pins from WDW.
GREAT JOB CHIP AND DALE
