pins--bulk lot purchases?

[jclark5735]

I'd prefer to buy a bulk lot of pins for my kids to trade on our first trip, but how do I ensure that I'm not buying fakes?

ANy suggestions on who to buy from (cheaply of course!)

I was searching EBAY and had this exact questions. We're brand new at Pins, so would appreciate any and all hints/tips/information.

Thanks!

I got a great tip here on the DIS boards to buy pins from MousePinsOnline

They delivered my order very fast.

I have been doing this for 3 different trips now! I love it!

I got 50 pins for like 25 bucks! I'll take it, and trading was the same as always and the big lots kinda start collections and such!

If you go on ebay you may want to look here before you buy. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2213419 basically a list of who is and is not a good person to buy from.

Unless you don't care if you have fake pins. Also, if you are getting a lot of pins for a small price, and you didn't get them from Disney, I would expect them to be fake.

Don't mean to rain on your parade or anything.
