Disney Store UK Emporers New Groove release
I just don't see the point. 75 orders for the entire country. People will just give up. This is the first LE150 I've been around for as I've only been collecting/trading for two months. I guess you get used to not even bothering!
 
I guess so. A 9am release when people are on their way to work or doing the school run isn't helpful. Sometimes real life is a real nuisance!
 
This is what got people complaining months ago not getting hold of the pins etc etc and all I can say is you stick to it and try, if not then your always gonna be able to trade for it down the line at some point if you missed it. And LE150's dont always hold there value as with too many people buying them to trader ruins the trade ratio's and can potentially make them worthless for any desirable pin your after so it can go both ways.

I know it can suck at first but this is the first one we have had in I dunno a loooooooong time so people would want it to try and use it against something they really want from a US trader as DSF pins have got popular so trying to trade for can be a pain and they are LE300 so really edition size is really neither here nor there unless the design is great.

I know it can be a pain in the bum when you dont get a pin, I thing everyone can relate to that frustration. Just try and see if you can have someone else be at the computer for release time in future just incase. I hope you can get the pin from trading.
 
Im really suprised the other pins from previous months are still up. They are still fairly low in addition size and I get a lot of US requests for them. I didnt realise this one would sell out so fast, so I was still in bed xD (day off ftw) Ahh well, I needed one for a trade I wont be able to make now but I know to be online asap next time xD My only complaint is that it wasnt removed from the site, talk about false hope
 
aye I agree disney dropped the ball on not removing it as I looked about an hour ago and it is still there. Also a thing to consider for others still being there is the pricing, all older UKers used to pay £7 regardless of dangle, pin on pin and all that jazz and then they decided to bump it up £2 I know its only £2 but its still a big increase as we only paid £9 for LE150's and now we pay £9 for anything with an add-on I know many people who stopped to the price increase as it wasnt worth it anymore. why pay more for something now when you paid less for more than 2 years.. increase sizes, increase prices.. loss of customers..
 
I have been getting pins for a while from the UK disney store. The LE 150s get snapped up quickly it always has done. They used to release on Fridays at 5pm, people complained. They then released them at 9am, people complained. Now its on a Thursday at 9am, people have been complaining. Like other people have said you can't please everyone. Plus I have found many times its harder to trade a LE 500 than a LE 150. Can someone please clarify.. people from Europe can also buy the pins off the UK website too?
 

I agree with everything you are saying mystic_star. And yes, people in Europe can purchase from DS UK so it's less than 75 in this country....
 
I was surprised it sold out but there you are great to see more pins and le150s back I really hate having to paypopstage even half price for two pins I confess I wasnt going to bother with the sold out one anyway I did buy pne cinderella set and we wills ee if it trades

Just wanted to third (as someone had already seconded it) that I really hope that people don't complain about missing out on this pin. Like Danny said, this release could've been a test. We've been stuck with a single LE 350 or LE 500 release every 2 weeks, then suddenly we've got a LE 150 pin, a LE 500 pin and a LE 150 set all in the same day. They could've been testing the waters to see how smaller edition sizes do after it became clear that hardly any of the higher edition sizes were selling out.

This pin is NOT highly sought after. On Pinpics there's only 31 people wanting it currently, with 8 trading. As soon as the pins start arriving, I'll bet you any money that there will be more than 31 people trading that pin. Anyone who missed out in this release shouldn't struggle to get it.
 
I want it purely because I love The Emperors New Groove. It reminds me of my best friend in the navy. We would always watch this movie together... I don't care about edition size. I think it's a really lovely pin!
