Where do they get them?

I just started trading on my last trip to SSR, MK and EC. I am going to take DD, DD, DS, DW in Feb 08 and the DDs want to start trading. I would like to get them a bulk of pins but I don't know where.

I have been looking at ebay and there seem to be people that are selling hundreds of pins a week starting at $.01. There is no way the bought them at the parks. Does any one know where they get them?

I know the factories in China sell pins in bulk to people not associated with Disney (scrappers), people buy out other collectors collections and resell them. Also Cast Members can buy pins very cheap at certain times and maybe they are reselling them. There's really no telling where they came from, but you could try writing the seller and asking them...
