Going to Orlando, but not into WDW, this weekend and next week, where to trade?

So my company is sending me to Florida next week so I'm going early on Saturday to see my family and then work Monday night - Wed morning. I can go to WDW area on Monday from about 1pm to 4pm and then again on Wed. from about 3pm to 6pm. So two 3 hour windows. Possibly I could go earlier on Monday, maybe I could stretch it to 10am-4:30pm if I could get into a park. I want to shop at that character warehouse place everyone talks about too. But is there anywhere to set up shop and trade on DTD by any chance? Is there a spot that is known, outside the parks, to go? Maybe a resort lobby? I can't justify paying to get into Epcot for the trading tables when I only have ~3 hours, unless some nice CM wants to get me in for a few hours. Maybe I can drop a few DSF/WDI pins their way...

Thanks for the info! Hope some people can help me out and meet up. I have LOADS of pins to bring from DSF, WDI, and DLR.

There isn't an area you can set up at DTD, but I have gotten some pretty good trades from CM...not LE or anything...but good luck! Hopefully a CM here can find a way for you to get into Epcot!

Hi there, bad news, the tables at Epcot are no longer there and they wont be back until after the holidays which is around the first or second week of January. There used to be trading tables outside DTD, but that was taken away a long time ago. The only trading event that I know of is a monthly trading event where locals meet at a Disney hotel, but that will not coincide during the time you will be here. In the meantime until the tables are back, I do most of my trading in this forum. I would love to do some trading with you, if that is something you will be interested in. What do you collect? I am looking for DSF pins mainly chip and dale, jack, and stitch. Let me know if you want to and we can meet up...

Oh no! Really!!?? I was just at Epcot a few weeks ago and the tables were there. They took them away AGAIN!!??

They took the tables away at Epcot close to the end of food and wine festival which I believe ended in Nov 7th
