I collect Disney pins, but unfortunately, i live in Indiana and can only get to Disney World or Disney Land twice a year. Do the Disney stores at the mall sell the pins? Can you trade with employees there?
Stupid survey, I know… But…Have you seen the people who play that "pin collecting game?"
Every gift shop sells a huge assortment of Disney-themed pins. For ex: I have Minnie dressed as Tinkerbell and mouse ears wearing a Pirate bandana. Anyway, people go freaking nuts over these pins!! I had one kid actually snatch the pirate pin out of my hand! The little cards they come on say that you can go up to any Disney world employee and if they have a pin that you want, they HAVE to trade it for one of your pins. And it is so funny to see people go up to an employee, look at the pins they are wearing, and then get pissed because they don’t see any pins they want to trade for. This one kid ran up to an old lady, nearly tackling her, then turned and shouted across the whole shop "Don’t bother! Her pins suck!" How bad must it suck to have to work there in the first place, and then have to be harrassed by these psychos trying to collect pins?? I think it would force me to quit.
How much are Disney Trading Pins in Florida at Disney World?

Can you trade them in Disney World at Florida? And if so, how do you trade them? I heard you go up to someone and tell them you want to trade your pin for another pin, but what would I say? Thanks in Advance.
It started as a harmless hobby. Or so I thought…
What starts as a hobby quickly becomes an obsession. I love Pin Trading. I love the challenge and the hunt for the ever-elusive rare pin that I have been obsessing about for 10 years (no joke) but I finally found it (Elliott, from Pete’s Dragon).
It’s fun. It’s interesting. It’s kind of stupid but for some odd reason, I really enjoy it.
I’m going back to Disney World next month with my lot of 50+ pins. Many of them are rare and hard to find. Many of them are favorites that I won’t trade (such as Evinrude…the dragonfly from The Rescuers or Si and Am from Lady and the Tramp).
Any others out there who enjoy this? How many pins do you have?
Just wondering. And I’m a grown-up…almost 40…

What do you do if you have a pin but can’t find it anywhere on the website. I wish i could tell where it is from but i can’t because i traded for it with the cast. I am so stuck and can’t find it on the web anywhere. All i know is the it says disneyland resort. I think it might say Paris underneath but not sure because it is so small. The only hard part is that i got it from someone in Disney World. Help me please!
I’m trying to buy an item on ebay and cannot figure out what name it may be listed under. At disney world, when people are trading pins and wearing the lanyards around their necks, there is usually a larger anchor pin at the bottom. I want to know what you call it because I cannot come up with any in my search.
I specifically mean the charms you buy to hang from that snap swival hook at the bottom of the lanyard. What are they referred to with disney? They aren’t a "pin", so what?
I went to Disney World for a couple weeks and was able to find a Simba cub trading/collector’s pin but I wasn’t able to find a Nala cub one. Apparently they don’t sell the Nala pins in Disney World anymore, so I was wondering if anyone has one they’d be willing to sell or if anyone has seen one for sale..
I tried looking all over the internet and I haven’t found one..
Thanks!
So I have a question about Disney Pins.
I am going to Disney in about a week, and have 12 pins from 2000, a few of them are even rare (from what I found on websites.)
So my question is, at the actual Disney World park do a lot of people actually trade there pins there, like they just walk up to you if you’re wearing a pin that they like? And how much people who go to the park actually wear some of there pins?
