Unfortunately for us in So Cal, it seems that all our stores suffer from a few folks who call or come in and buy out every single Disney pin that comes in... At my local store the manager there has told me she knows of one woman who does this, and so she tries to put out only so many for when she comes in and saves some aside for regular customers who come asking. But not all the other employees do. They don't mind if someone comes in and buys a couple of each design (I explained to her about trading) but agrees it's no fun if one person just comes in and buys them all out.Sadly my Boxlunch store had zero Disney pins when I went May 31. (Brea Mall). They look nice though.
PS. Random fun fact, Lounge Fly is owned by Funko!
So that explains why there never are any pins when I go in and ask. I was wondering. If the employees don't mind if someone buys a couple of each design (but not buys out the whole supply), why not just implement limits on how many a person can buy (like Disney does)?Unfortunately for us in So Cal, it seems that all our stores suffer from a few folks who call or come in and buy out every single Disney pin that comes in...

lol that is Mulan. They have it in the Moana section at my local storeIf you live close enough to a Hot Topic or Box Lunch, they both have free shipping to stores. So if you find a pin on their website (esp. if you have a coupon code!), you could pick that option (the thought of paying full shipping for just one little pin kills me!lol). I've been eyeing that new Box Lunch Mulan pin...
I nearly missed the bowl of them myself.If your local store is like mine you might want to check every Disney character section. The stuff is all mixed up also mine has a pin jar by the register as well
Are the box lunch pins of a different quality that traditional Disney pins. They seem to have a decent variety, but if they are of equal quality why wouldn't Disney release them in the standard way?
Disney uses pins to boost their different business models in all sorts of ways... so not sure about a standard.Are the box lunch pins of a different quality that traditional Disney pins.

They are not considered "Official Disney Pin Trading" pins, they don't have the Mickey waffle on the back, and they don't have the Pin Trading logo on the back.Are the box lunch pins of a different quality that traditional Disney pins.
