What's the best way to get a Passholder Pin?

[Tamar]

We need one pin to complete our 2007 set. We asked a relative to pick it up for us when she was there last week (we're in Minnesota) and she got the wrong one. I only see one of the pin we need posted on ebay and the seller, although he has tons of positive feedback, also has some oddities in the feedback (like, every other buyer has posted 4-6 positive comments, and the actual listing they bought is not attached to the feedback).

Have you been in this situation? Are there sellers/traders who you'd recommend? Maybe even someone who is in Orlando and will be there soon?

Thanks for any recommendations!

I cant comment on the seller but if you buy more than 1 pin you should leave feedback for every pin. After 90 days the link to the auction goes.
Hope this helps

Thanks, there are so many instances of feedback for this person that the first 20+ pages is all less than 60 days old....but only a few have a link to the item, and most are multiple responses. Maybe people get lazy when giving feedback and don't want to link to each pin?

I want to trust this person, but it just looks odd, so I am hoping to find another way to get this pin, short of hopping on a plane....

Have you tried the sale board on dizpins.com
You can ask there.

You could also search ebay or dispins for a "personal shopper" who will buy annual pass holder items.

I'm a passholder and go just about every week. If you'd like me to pick one up for you, let me know and we'll work out the details.

Thanks to everyone who responded and PM'd me. I may be nuts, but I decided to give the eBay'er a try. I guess I will know in the next few days if that was a mistake...I placed the order on 12/26 in the evening, so far have only received the automated emails saying they received the order and payment... The seller does list his name and phone number in his "store" so if I don't hear anything by Wednesday, I'll give him a call and see what's up.

Those who offered to help may hear from me yet! But in the meantime, have a very happy New Year!
