How to know the value of a pin.

[gary-n-paula]

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if there is actually a price guide book for Disney pins that everyone goes by? When I was collecting sports cards the Beckett Guide was the industry standard when it came to finding prices. Is there any way of knowing what pins are worth?

Thank you!

There is no standard price guide; the closest would be Tomarts. However, it has flaws of not being updated very often. He also discounts eBay prices.

eBay can be useful; but one should be wary of extremes (either high or low). Also, for more obscure / rare pins, it can be difficult to find recent prices.

If you use ebay for prices you should check the closed auctions for auctions prices that pins actually sold for. There are a lot of people asking ridiculous prices right now. The sold auctions give you a better idea on what people are actually getting.

Unless the pin you are selling is a PTD. Then just type in whatever number you want or best offer and eventually, you'll get it sold.
