I also like Tink pins, but I really haven't seen any new ones I like lately.

I went NUTS! I bought this big leather look sellers bag. and was at the pin convention thing at the hotel. I tended to trade some of my own keeper collection instead of most of the traders I had. boy did I wheel and deal! anyway the cool thing was at the very end of my stay. I found some of the pins.. I had hastily gave away early in my unknowing trades. so it made me happy to have them back in my personal collection again. I am soon to get my frameing done of my keepers. funny I saw this topic. as that is one chore I asked hubby to do for me drill the board I need for them. I will post pictures after its done.. one of theses years LOL

Originally Posted By trekkeruss I am a recovering pin collector, meaning I stopped. Thankfully I stopped long ago, before the big craze even started.

Originally Posted By DlandDug Wow! I collect Disneyland specific pins. I do not buy nearly as much as I used to, because there are just too many to keep track of. I also collect one film: Toy Story.

Originally Posted By teddibubbles I Love Bubble Pins! I want to start tradeing for them. its so cute how they make things in a bubble! ( Im still hopeing for my last pin I need for my helmit ones. the bubble stitch one!) but I know there are a few buble kinds out there.

Originally Posted By tiki tiki tiki tiki I just bought my first 4 pins on my last trip to DLR, one for each day I visited each park.

I wore them proud on my plane ride back home!
Originally Posted By geniesjoy Hi there-I just recently started purchasing a few DL pins about the things I love about DLR.

The reason I ask is I purchaed a pin I thought was new on new card but it turned out to be on the wrong card with wrong price on it. I go to pinpics for pin info but can't find anywhere that has condition info.
