The APA has expanded into auctions!

This Limited edition pin is up for auction....
And how do you win it???
With OPEN EDITION pins as bids!

​
Yup... You read it right! Open edition pins are what you bid for this Limited edition pin!


Here is the pin:

Pin 96264: DLR - Window to the Magic - Cinderella
​

This is a Limited Edition 1000, DLR/DCA park exclusive pin. Featuring Cinderella and her 2 little mouse buddies GusGus and Jaq. Cinderella is in her maids uniform. And is a pin on pin element. This particular pin comes ON CARD.

You want it???
Here is what to bid:


  • Open edition pins.
  • We consider Limited release pins to be limited edition. However will allow them as bids.
  • Limited edition bids will only be considered if NO open edition pins are put up. *so yeah, you can bid an LE, but the instant someone bids an OE it will go to the LE for an OE rules. *
  • We at the APA prefer not to deal with hidden mickeys. Those belong in the Secret Pinservice department. Hidden Agenda's are not in the best interests of the APA.

The APA representatives enjoy:
Sparkly princesses, obscure female characters, horsies, winnie the pooh characters, Pixie hollow fairies that are not Tinkerbell, Tinkerbell as a witch, or a pirate is totally ok, any character with a butterfly is really cool, Aaaaaand Brave characters.

NO:
  • future release pins. it needs to be released before the end date of this auction.
  • non pin items. *lanyards or pin accesories ok, non custom*

Auction ends on Friday, Nov 1st.
At 7:42pm PST
And 42 seconds. ​

Psycho's small print: In the event that people do not know how to read the instructions and bid LE's, all bids will be reviewed and it will be a preference based choice from the APA. However, we at the APA have faith in the human ability to read. We firmly believe that anyone who bids will choose to bid the open editions because in general those are less expensive or difficult to come by. You can bid 1, or multiple pins, but Open edition bids are what will make the leaderboard. I mean, who wouldnt read the whole auction before bidding? There are words, they MUST be read. And you always want to go as cheap as possible right? why overbid?

Forgot to add the posts are kinda wobbly. Not sure if its QC or happened on its journey overseas but wanted to mention.
 
First auction

I'll try:
Pin 90912: Disney Princess Crest - Mystery Collection - Pocahontas Only
Pin 90908: Disney Princess Crest - Mystery Collection - Aurora Only
Pin 48203: Maleficent and Dragon on Tower
 
leaderboard stays as it is. I like the new bids, and all of them have random parts i enjoy a LOT.

clara: your bid got placed while i was making the first leaderboard. I like the merida, but the hidden mickeys... not so much.

Anmicki: I REALLY like your bid, but am unsure with wobbly posts. how bad do the wobble? hairline wiggles, or full teeter totter?

I'll try to describe best I can. Cinderella is very slight wiggle. I'd probably describe her as hairline. Ariel's is worse. Not sure I'd describe is as full teeter totter but there's definitely a good amount of wiggle to her post.
 
I can't really compete with the awesome bids you've had so far, but since this is the first time I've seen an auction where I actually have a pin I can legitimately bid, I have to give it a shot! Thanks for running such a great auction .

I bid: Pin 91752: DisneyStore.com - Main Street - Stitch.
Still on card and in original plastic bag.

Can I just add that almost ALL of these pins on the starter sets were wobbly :/
I bought a set myself and all four were wobbly, and I've tried to trade for a new belle one but each time - wobbly

Pin 11539: 12 Months of Magic - Jasmine (Slider)
Pin 49076: Jerry Leigh - Belle with Cape and Crown
Pin 48748: Little Mermaid - Ariel Shell Border with Flounder
