In a pin trading funk....

I went thru this once. It passed but lasted about 4 months. Hope you come out of it soon!

Same here

Don't give up Li. You pulled me out of my funk by getting me the stuff from the Mad T Party which were waiting for me when I got home at 2 AM this morning. It really cheered me up and the scarves are WONDERFUL. Even if your funk last a year (mine did) do NOT sell your traders. You will regret it when the "bug" bites you again. I just put mine in the closet and waited it out. Now I'm back in full swing. I am thinning down my collection and will probably sell some traders after the September event. But there have been some nice pins come out lately and I've made some great trades. Don't quit and keep your chin up.

Glad you like them Margaret and I hope to get the last scarf in a few weeks. Maybe by mid-July, they'll actually have the pins!

Glad to know it's not just me, I am like you seriously considering selling off my traders. That and the stupid shipping costs from the UK these days means it's not worthwhile trading for 1 pin.

Pin trading through pin pics is not the fun it used to be, it's very rare to get a reply. I do try and reply to all the TA's I get not always on the same day but usually within a day or 2. Sometimes I want to mull trades over.

Some pins I've been hunting down for a good few years but no one is trading them so that is part of my frustration.

Time to sell up and just buy the ones I need for my collection? Who knows, still mulling it over.

Yup, that's exactly what I've been pondering - sell the traders and just buy what I need.

Thank you for the wonderful zap mysterious PinZapper!

Daisy will go well with my Woody Kooky pen. And that Beach Club Villas pin will go well to commemorate my recent WDW trip. Thanks so much!
