No.

Just. No.

If people support this kind of terrible business practice by buying into it, they're going to keep doing it. Next will be silver for $350. And pewter for $450. And black for $550. In every color. In every pin they think they can get away with pulling this behavior on.

So, after 25 years of being a completist - NO. I'm not buying any more pins from this company due to this kind of customer-abusing garbage.

Fun fact. Since I've started making pins, I've learned that changing the metal costs, at most, $50 for the run, as long as the mold (design) doesn't change.

In the anime pin industry, creators capitalize on this so people feel compelled to buy multiples of designs, but costs creators a fraction of amount for a whole new or changed design.

I'm pretty disappointed to see a Disney-adjacent company do it.
