Pin Trading in DL?

[Hunnybee]

We are going to Disneyland in April. We have been pin trading with CMs during all of our trips to WDW. This is the first trip to DL since we started pin trading. I just wanted to make sure they do actually trade pins out there. And, secondly, that CMs wear trading lanyards, just like in WDW.

Thanks for any info you can give me!

Yes, they do pin trading at DLR and the CMs wear lanyards just like they do at WDW. I've found that there is less trading at DLR, but that's mostly because it is a smaller resort so there are fewer CMs. Be sure to check out the Frontierland pin store because they often have a pin wheel (like a pin board, but it shaped like a wheel) in the back. DL has three main pin shops (Frontierland, New Orleans Square, and Tomorrowland) and DCA has the main shop on Buena Vista Street. Be sure to check out each store to see if they have a pin book (it's kind of hit or miss).

From your post, it sounds like you've done trading in WDW, so you're aware of the issue with scrappers. It's the same at DLR...not really any better or worse than at WDW.
