D23 Early Renewal Pin - Anyone got it yet?

I'm just curious as to if these have started arriving yet...I renewed in time and did get my package, but curious as to if the pins have started shipping yet.

The renewal pin was shipped in your renewal membership kit. You have to renew your membership 60 days prior to your current expiration date, i.e. if your membership expires January 31, 2012, you had to pay for your renewal before November 31, 2011. The renewal pin is actually an "early" renewal bonus and not just a renewal gift. The actual renewal gift for 2012 was a calendar.

Sorry Hearts48, but you are mistaken. I have an email in my box that specifically states that renewal by January 31, 2012 gets you the special pin. There is no reference to the 60 day rule. Thanks though for the information, because I guess a call to DS.com is in order, because the pin wasn't in my renewal envelope. I don't know why I actually counted on DS.com to get something right...they have messed up almost every order I've placed for the past year


Cut/paste from my renewal reminder email.

Your 2012 D23 Membership will include:
A one-year subscription to Disney twenty-three (four issues), which includes special member-only publication gifts.
A 2012 membership card.
Our 2012 renewal gift: From Concept to Classic, a 23-month calendar paying tribute to 75 years of Disney feature animation showcasing dozens of pieces of Disney concept art through the years - many shared publicly for the first time.
Special offers and discounts designed with D23 Members in mind.
The opportunity to attend numerous D23 Member events throughout the year.
Access to special D23 Member-exclusive merchandise in "Boutique 23."
The D23 FanFare, a biweekly e-newsletter only for D23 Members.
And if you renew by January 31, you will also receive an exclusive D23 pin with that lovable chipmunk Dale! This limited offer is available only to D23 Members who renew by January 31, 2012.

Thank you!

I will stand corrected, but my information came to me directly from DS.com when I called them because I did not receive a pin in my membership kit. I had renewed in December for my January expiration date. DS.com then told me the stipulation of the 60 day prior to expiration in order to receive the pin.

We probably both need to call then and if you want to email me directly, I'll be happy to forward you the email I got with the January 31st information. I know that last year (and maybe even the year before) there was a 60 day rule and I was looking for it, but this year the email didn't say it.....so I waited until after Christmas to renew -- so I'm making them honor their offer. Just let me know if you want my email and I'll be happy to share.
