So I've done this twice already and it's been a little crazy for me, BUT I've learned from my mistakes. From now on I will be charging $13 for the sundae pin, $5 for shipping (includes price of bubble envelope) AND instead of asking for donations (for gas and parking), I will ask everyone to add an extra $5 to their pin order. Gas prices are at an all time high, I hope everyone understands.

With that said..... I'm going to DSF this weekend. Would anyone like for me to pick up any Pin Trader Delight pins for them? I am able to get up to 6, maybe more (depending on how many people PM me for these pins). Please PM me if interested. Thanks!
 
Dont forget the Oscars are Sunday & Highland will be closed, Hollywood Blvd already is in front of DSF, so traffic will be crazy there! I'm curious to see if they still have the PTD Maleficent or if its a new one & if so, what it is.
 
If you park in the Highland complex you will have to cross the street at Hyghland or Orange.
 
Sorry I can see you asking for a donation in gas as I gave you $4.00 the last time, but 5 each ? I don't even mine paying $5.00 for shipping . I'll wait till I'm buying more in March .

I go to DSF for the sole purpose of getting pins for DPF members. The last two times I did this, some people didn't donate anything for gas or parking and they purchased multiple pins. It takes me 45 minutes to get there, and 45 minutes to get back. If I were selling pins for profit (double or triple in price), I'd understand that you'd want me to at least pay for the shipping. Unfortunately, I am not able to pay for shipping materials, shipping, and delivery confirmation for every member that asks me to pick up pins for them. I will revise the shipping and gas prices for next time. Thanks for the input.
 
I don't think the prices are bad, and I understand why they would be a little higher. It is a lot of time and effort to get pins for many people. I think if you request a few pins at a time, it is well worth it.
 
It is definitely worth it if you are getting more than one pin . I only got one the last time and gave Karin $4.00 for gas . Now I understand, Shame on you other DPF members that got pins and did not donate ANYTHING . It is what ruined it for those of us that did appreciate Karin's generosity and didn't donate a dime . Karin, I'm sorry, I didn't realize that others were so stingy . I would like all 4 of the stained eggs , if you can buy more than one . I need 2 Thumpers if possible . I will be more than generous when buying multiples . Ten in gas from me for that set, plus an extra Thumper .
I need 2 Rapunzels and one Stitch ticket and an Alice pin .
Cheap Skates is all I can say about others ! SMH
 
I will also pay in advance, so you will have my money in hand when going . The 15th I get paid for the release on March 17th . I want one Alice, 2 Rapunzels and one Stitch . $5.00 in gas and $7.00 for shipping . Remember members the more pins, the larger the envelope, and more in postage . PM me Karin . I'll send you another $5.00 for my price in postage materials, time and parking . I feel bad now opening my mouth when I did not know the circumstances .
 
As far as future releases, I have already responded to the people who have Pmed me. I will not be taking any more orders for March releases, I need to make a list of who has asked me for what, and go from there. I will probably let you guys know tomorrow what pins I can still buy.
