I Need Some Feedback re Pin Values for a Friend

[Trade Winds Pins]

Hi Everyone,

A longtime pin trader friend of mine is considering selling two pins and needs opinions on worth. They are older pins, and I haven’t found either one of them for sale on e-Bay. They are both LE 100 Tinker Bell jumbo pins from Disney Auctions, and the trading/wanting ratio is huge (I think one person trading one of them, and two trading the other, with a LOT of people wanting them). These are the pins:

What do you think are good asking BIN prices or starting bid prices for them? Thanks for your input.

Ahh, I love them both! Someone had 19826 at D23 in his $100 and up book. My guess is realistically between $125 and $175 maybe? Other well versed in DA may have better guesstimates.

The 2nd pin sold for $100 BIN two months ago. The first one has been up for sale for months, but it's been in a group of 2 - 3 pins for $199

U rarely see an LE100 Tink sell for under $100 unless its pretty generic or bland. I like both of those so I'm sure they're $100+.

Are you kidding me? How did I miss that one that sold 2 months ago? I didn't even know it had hit the Bay!!

That price is pretty close to what I saw a few years ago, but I don't know if its fluxed any since then...

Sent you a PM.

Thanks to all of you who have responded so far; I will wait until tomorrow to see if more replies are posted, then let her know. (Got your PM, Nicole.)

The first one I have seen sell in the $75-$95 range over time. The second one I have and after posting pictures of it I had messages offering as much as $300 if I would sell it. I fell in love with it in person though and have not wanted to part with it so he/she may want to try that one as I know there are people here who would pay quite a bit for it if they have not been able to obtain it yet. It is always hard to say though until it is offered what somebody is going to spend.
