Reputable pin sellers

[maj42169]

Does anyone the name of a pin seller on eBay that is proven to be reputable and selling authentic Disney pins? If so, could you please send me a private message with their name. I am wanting to get into pin trading for my daughter, but I have NO idea how to tell what is real or fake. I would prefer to just purchase a lot of pins to trade from someone that is proven. Thanks!

We have used mousepinsonline.com and been very happy. We picked a few specific pins, and got grab bags as well. Their shipping is cheap, too! I have bought a few specific ones on ebay, but don't remember the sellers - I usually look for a 100% rating on a decent no. of sales. I didn't trust buying lots on there, though.

It's tough to say which of the eBay sellers are still reputable at this point. I've seen Mousepinsonline.com come up a few times, both with ardent supporters and with folks saying they received. scappers/fakes. Hopefully things have improved since 2013. The first post on the Good/Bad Internet sellers has a list, but it hasn't been updated in a while.

My general feeling is that if you're buying pins in bulk lots for anything less than $2.00 or so per pin, you're likely buying scrappers, fakes, counterfeits, etc. Other key things to look for are whether the pins are still on their backing, still wrapped, etc.
