Disney Pins
Sorry for the late post, next week it will be on time!
How to pin trading
I atarted pin trading during my April trip when I was 10 years old. My mom had done some research and one day a package came from Amazon. It was a pack of 50 pins. My mom had explained to me how pin trading worked, She ordered a starter set from Amazon and I split it with my sister. I loved it! I want to share some important information about pin trading and some secrets to help you have a fun time trading!
What is pin trading
When you walk into the parks there is a lot to look at so you might not have noticed the lanyards with pins on the cast members. Any cast member has to trade with you and you can trade for any pin on their lanyard. You can just walk up and ask can I trade a pin, then look and point for the one you like. If there isn't a pin you or your kids want just say thank you don't feel like you have to trade. There are series of trading pins and I like to collect certain ones.
Series & Hidden Mickeys
Series of pins are sold in mystery boxes or packs. You can purchase these packs at the parks or on the Disney Parks app. A bag of mystery pins of the pack you choose with 5 pins in it is around $28. A box of 2 mystery pins of the pack you choose is around $15. Hidden mickeys are pins that disney has released that you have to buy from a blind bag. A way that you know the pins are hidden mickeys is somewhere on the pin there will be a little silver mickey head. If you turn the pin onto the back there is a little box that will say 2 out of 5. That is how you know what pins are part of which set.
Where to get Trading Pins
There are multiple ways to get pins to trade but some are cheaper than others! One way is to order a lot from amazon but be sure to check the reviews to make sure that they are good quality. Another way to get trading pins is to buy them in mystery boxes or bags and keep the ones you like and trade the ones you don’t like.
COMING SOON I WILL BE SELLING SOME OF MY PINS

Pin trading is a great hobby for the whole family to enjoy and there is a pin for everyone!
