Hello all :lol:
Mom and I are most likely going to be driving down to WDW for the weekend/a couple of days from good old Maryland. I was just sitting here wondering, now that I am much more serious about pin trading than when I was a child years ago in the parks!
How do you pin trade in the parks?
When you approach CMs to look at their lanyards, How do you feel?
Me, when I ask someone to look at their lanyard, sometimes I just trade with them just to trade, since they took the time to allow me to look! :lol: I used to just look for my collection (Lion King, Villains, etc.) and if they didn't have anything, say no thanks.
Now, after just recently getting off the Dream a few days ago, I approached a new way of trading with the CMs. I started trading for things that looked interesting (3D or Dangle pins) off of the CMs, even if they were not something I collected- I got a few Stitch and even Haunted Mansion pins, as well as some Event pins! I was hoping this would be the best strategy for trading to get things that are interesting that people may want to trade through pinpics and DPF.
SO I am looking for suggestions as how to BEST trade in the parks when I only have a few days there, my goal is to get a few good things that people may want. Should I pick up some rack pins too? I'm really at a loss, I'm looking forward to hearing what everyone has to say! Or are Hidden Mickey's the best way to go? Please advise! :bowdown:
