Thanks

I want to say thank you to a pin trader that my son met at WDW on Monday Nov. 1st. You were wearing a kid friendly trader badge on you vest. I hope you post here and read this.

Thank you so much for trading with my son. He gave you a regular pin and you gave him a limited edition pin. He had a bad experience with a trader at DTD in May and didn't want to trade with anyone except CM's until you traded with him.

Thank you also for giving him a pin to give to his sister. He made sure that she new that someone had given that to her and he put it on her lanyard for her.

It is great to know that there are pin traders out there who want kids to enjoy pin trading as much as they do.

I bet I know who the trader was. It sounds like someone I met recently at the World of Disney Store in New York City. If it is the same person, he is a great guy. He does wear a vest with the Kid Pin Trading Logo Badge, and I believe that they told me that they would be at WDW that week. Did he have glasses and dark hair, and was he with his wife and an adorable baby girl? I have a feeling that you might be talking about a guy named Steven and his wife Collette. He loves Stitch and he posts on the Dizpins boards alot.

Let me know if any of this describes the person your son traded with and I'll let you know how you can get in touch with him.

Regards,
Donna

DS said that he doesn't remember what he looked like, but I do believe he had dark hair and glasses. DS said he was with his sister? There wasn't a cute baby girl with them, maybe Mom and her were back at the room napping.

DS said that he did have a lot of Stitch pins and he did trade a limited edition stitch pin with him. We were at a Store on Main Street (don't remember which one) and it was about 3:30pm. He did tell me to make sure DS did not trade that pin since it was a Limited Edition.

I just sent his wife an email to see if that was Steven. I'll let you know when she replies. In any case, there are lots of nice pin traders out there, and I'm glad that your son had a good experience. Welcome to the world of pin trading!!!!
