Hey all, Looking forward to some interaction with my many pin trading companions, Started pin trading back in 2004, You might say that I was ambused lol. We came to the Disneyland Hotel for a 2 day stay, When we checked in at the front desk, the clerk gave me a coupon for 2 free pins, Of course I thought they meant a pin to write with lol. So I asked what am I going to do with these 2 pins you are giving me, She said I can keep them or trade them. Ok now you have my attention, She told me that some of the employees have pins to trade, I said suppose they dont want to trade, She said the have to, uh huh! Im starting to like this trading thing. My parents and I have been going to disneyland since 1964 My wife and kids have continued the tradition and I cant believe I have not known about the pin trading thing. What I consider my first pin to have was a Walk in walts footsteps pin. We were givien it after we took the tour .Ok now Im really hooked, I have probably about 400 pins in my collection, some from Disney Auctions and some from the park , also I have some from a pin event I attended back in 2004,and also the 50th celebration. I try to collect the whole set of something. I look forward to sharing them with you all as soon as I have time to take pictures of them all, Thanks Larry
