Pin Trading?

[howlongtillsummer?]

My daughter has always wanted to try this but I have put her off up till now. I was thinking that I might get her an ebay bundle for trading as I know she will NOT trade anything she buys. Any tips? A quick search on ebay didn't pull much up and I would not want to buy unofficial pins.

We have bought lots of pins on ebay - from a few pence to a few pounds - and have never had any dodgy ones yet (not that I am saying that there aren't any - just that we have been lucky)

This one HERE looks to be good value for money and works our at less than 50p per pin

I have used this seller a couple of times but nowhere near as cheap as Kenny's link, that is a fantastic deal. http://www.pinfinder.com/acatalog/Disney_Pin_Trading_Pins___Going_to_the_Parks______.html#a21111

1st lot he delivered to us at our hotel in Cali, 2nd time home but got hit with import duty so also take that into account. Mart(burt) used same seller and got them delivered to OKW this August so I would do that in future, import duty put cost up a lot.

If you don't feel comfy getting them from Ebay also, we found that the Disney outlet stores at the Premium Outlets and Prime Outlets on I-drive have cheaper pins in there for trade.

We picked up quite a few 'mystery bags' (containing two pins) for a couple of dollars a piece, they were great for trading with.

Perfect. Just the sort of thing I was looking for. Many thanks

I am sure that we will end up with some of those too!!

I just know this is one of these things that is best not to start ... ...

I hadn't thought of import duty. Thanks for the tip.
