Help w/Pinpics # for Port Orleans pin...and sad empty envelope :(

Mail today came with two very different items. The first was this pin:



Is this pin on Pinpics?? Am i just blind?? It's for the Disney Story Rooms (and are there more pins for these?). Any help would be appreciated.


And the second was this...well I guess it doesn't count as an item, but still...



My first empty envelope. I guess I should feel fortunate that it hasn't happened to me until now, but...I'm still sad. I paid $2.50 for shipping, and they put it in a white letter envelope? I had heard of people doing this, but never experienced it before.

wow that sucks....

for the first pin::
wow, i think it might not be listed as yet.... I could not find it and I tried just about every description.

for the empty envelope. give the shipper this link. **big grin**

That Tiana pin is nice - was that from a purchase or trade? And is it a new pin / backstamp?

Sadly, I have been in the same situation a few years back regarding a torn white letter envelope. I purchased a Stitch with Ducks (reading the book) pin and the idiot person who I bought it from sent it in a white envelope - of course the envelope arrived, torn and ripped but no pin. Contacted him, he did absolutely nothing. Said he would send out a replacement...never did. This happened before I knew that you could report people to PayPal.

I had so much bad luck getting that Stitch pin after that... still haven't got it

Anyway, definitely talk to the sender and if you don't get a satisfactory response, report them to PayPal if you paid for it / or PinPics if you traded /Ebay etc..

That sucks about the lost pin...just stupid to ship it that way.

The Tiana pin isn't on Pinpics, so you could just add it yourself.

Sorry to see that empty white envelope What a bummer!! That sucks. Hopefully things will work out with a good resolution.

That Tiana pin is really pretty though! Wow, congrats!!

Whoopsies, I use these white envelopes but I put the pins in little ziplocs and then bubble wrap them. I will switch over to bubble mailers for sure.

Very sorry your pin got lost in the mail.

OMGosh I want this pin! It's so cute!

Where is the Tiana pin from? What does the card its on say?

Judging by the card it is a promotional pin for travel agents. Looks very similar to the cards for Cars Land, Star Tours relaunch, Goofy's Sky School, Ariel, etc. Search "travel agent" and you can see those.

I am very sorry to hear this. I hope you will receive your pin soon once you talk to the sender.
Thanks PP for the link. I learned a lot by reading your post.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I have added the Tiana pin to Pinpics:
Pin 93578: WDW - Port Orleans Resort Tiana Travel Agent Pin

Sadly, aside from the backer card and backstamp (which really doesn't tell me anything), I don't have too much information regarding it. If anyone finds any more info on it, please let me know!

And as for my empty envelope...I made the purchase through the bay...seller had 100% feedback. I sent them a message though telling them what happened, included the picture, and just said that even though I understand it's beyond their control once it's mailed, they should have used a bubble mailer. The seller immediately refunded my money, apologized, and said they will switch to using bubble mailers. Sad that I didn't get my pin, but at least I don't have to deal with drama, and hey, if it means the next person doesn't get a white envelope from this seller, then I guess it's all worth it.
