Do you guys have any pin bags you like the design of? It's my next investment, but I'm looking around to see if there are any designs besides the standard pin trading logo.
 
That's a good option then. I like fun styles like this. I'm hoping to find something like a sorcerer mickey or a Chernabog design in the options too. Thanks for the help.
 
Already finding a few I like the look of. Tough choices. Aside from chewie and the wdi sorcerer mickey, there's two brown leather ones that caught my eye. One with the castle and the other with an adventure logo.
 
I got a new one recently commemorating the 60th anniversary of DLR which I really like . It is DLR exclusive but I'm sure you could get someone to get you one .
Had you though of getting a standard plain pin bag and a T-Shirt transfer off eBay . I'm working on something similar for my mystery pin traders
 
If you live near a Disney Outlet, they've had a pink trading bag really cheap recently. I picked two up. One for my daughter and one for a friend. It has classic mickeys stitched all over it. I think it was like 12 bucks after all the discounts.
 
I know this is about cover designs, but I just wanted to throw this out here...

Anyone else think that the older pin bags have a much better page material for keeping the pins on? I have two different bags of the same size, and the older one from Disney Catalog has pages that are bigger, softer, easier to poke the pins through and you don't even see any marks leftover when a pin is removed - plus it has mesh pouches after every page and nice dividers. The newer bag that I have has smaller pages, it's really difficult to poke the pins through the material and there's no place to put anything except the back. I feel as though the dividers don't offer much protection either.

I'm not sure how "new" the latter one is though. They are both from Disney.

What are the current bags like now?
 
Couldn't tell you, but two of the bags on my list are the brown 2004 adventure bag and the 1971 bag with the castle on it.
 
I like the look of the Chewie pin bag, and even have one (not in use), but it doesn't hold many pins. Maybe good for someone with only a few pins or a child. Just my 2 cents.
 
Dont buy this bag at disneyworld as they had this in the character warehouse store marked down to just $10 and they had a lot there when I went in in middle of October

Wow, $10??

If you have a Disney store outlet near you (we have one at Ontario Mills), I suggest going there. I got several pin bags for $25 + tax (original retail was $50-55) and what's great about them is that they are done in the OLD style!

You can find those Chewis pin bags on ebay for $27 shipped or less if you're not close to an outlet. Also, I think I saw My-D Pins have the old style pin bag, I think it was the Mickey's 100 years bag (the one that there were 101 pins of Mickey in various poses) for $15.

And finally, I do not recommend getting those $20 pin bags that aren't made by Disney. They have a cruddy material inside that has to be reinforced with cork to work.

I would love a Stitch themed pin bag for my daughter but the only one I have seen is very expensive brown leather.
 
Disney Auctions had a tummy-pack style Stitch pin bag. It's bigger than the typical small pin bags but not as big as a large one. Perfect size really.

I think they also had one or two full sized Stitch pin bags as well sold through DA.

Such great merch then... :/
