Can anyone help me determine the value of this pin. Any help will do. Thanks

Scratch that first though, the last one sold for $70. (I think Monster's U completists were scrambling for the first one listed.) I see these pins to have a potential to go WAY way up in price. These pins verify the purchaser was present for the first showing of the movie at the El Capitan. In a way it's like a verifiable marquee. The marquee's say "Hi, my movie played at El Capitan." This pin says "Hi, I saw the movie on day 1 at El Capitan." That is rarer I feel and requires commitment to a time and place and $30 if I recall. If they continue this trend, once there are 8, 10, 25 of these pins they will catch on and be popular and the first few will be very hard to get hold of. Imagine knowing today's Up marquee value back when it came out. I think these can go that route. I am not a huge fan of the slider feature. If the do Ariel 3D and each new release or re-release these could start adding up to a nice collection to show off. Just hard to wear a slider pin like that on a lanyard.

How many people wear $50+ dollar pins on lanyards though?
 
This is the pin that came / comes with the Monsters University movie ticket option "VIP Ticket + Pin". As long as you were one of the 300 that purchased the movie ticket ($32) it didn't (doesn't) matter what day you asked for, they held the pin for you. They had the same ticket option for Planes (VIP+pin is sold out)...
 
Thanks Steve, I thought it was for opening night. Still, these pins require a $32 commitment and I venture to guess many are going to affluent Hollywood-ites, not pin traders. So they may be rare. Once word catches on to the pin trading masses though, those VIP spots may sell out quick to pin collectors. Especially for the like of a Little Mermaid 3D, Forzen, etc.

I agree!
 
I don't wear any pins on my lanyard, because I don't OWN a lanyard. At all. Nope. Nor do I really want to. I don't personally believe in wearing what I call 'brag lanyards'. I have no problem with other people wearing them, and I enjoy looking at them, but I don't wanna wear one. Personally when I look at someone's lanyard, it always bums me out to find out that they're not actually trading the pins on it. So I wouldn't want to make someone else feel like that, so I don't do it. Again, just my personal preference, not a negative comment about other people wearing them. oh and to stay on topic (lol) that's a really cool looking pin!
