PIN & POP PIN & POP Site Announcements & Ideas

Trade Arcade mystery solved.

There was alot of question about what that "black diamond thing in the stand" was. Here it is ( well a blue version) for the bracelets on sale for the Bluey show at Disneyland.

I'm disappointed there's no specific pins, but digging the shirts. Im figuring they'll be around in November, unless someone's going...

Would it be possible to post Pin and Pop updates in multiple places? For example, I just found out about the trader approve token increase while catching up on this forum. I am not on Facebook so there is no way I would see the update otherwise. Is there a way to send out big Pin and Pop updates via email or notification on the site in addition to social media? I want to see the updates from the Pin and Pop team but I can't see if they are only posted in one place.

I just posted this on facebook to see if they would notice.

This change isn't going into effect until May so we will definitely send out a mass email update and put information on the site to communicate with everyone before then. Facebook, for now at least, will probably continue to be our primary channel for early Trade Arcade updates though - and the community here has been awesome about posting information faster than I've been able to.

There was a post today on PnP's Insta - a 2nd chance trading?
Here's the verbage from the post "
"We've been hard at work creating a 2nd Chance trading experience for pins that are cancelled from events. This is a fantastic way to get new trade offers on a pin especially since the pin is already here at Pin & Pop.
We can't wait to launch this in the coming weeks."

My brain might not be functioning, but I was under the presumption that pins from cancelled trades just went back to their original owner? Curious as to what populates these tables? Be nice to have another crack at some pins, but I just think I'm a bit confused.

Here is a screenshot I took from when they first announced this was coming.
The way I understand it, it's going to be a benefit always available to VIP members once it launches as an opportunity to trade away a pin that is already at Pin & Pop instead of waiting to have it sent back to you.

I guess that makes sense. I'm one opinion but just when I get a pin back from a cancel I try to retrade it- but I do see it as another perk for people to try to get pins during between arcade times to be a VIP member.

I imagine you’d still have the option of having it sent back, but it does seem silly to mail it back only to turn around and mail it back to pin and pop.

I guess? but it's more pins to have to deal with there with already getting 10,000 every 3 months and then 2 months to turn them around to their new homes.

But they wouldn’t have to go through the verification process a second time on the same pin.

The duplication problem in the catalog has really gotten out of control. It's great that Jenn & Chris have left us all on our honour to check a pin before adding- but me thinks it's time for a change.
When someone adds a new pin, it needs to go into a 'holding pen" then once the info is verified (new pin, series, name, etc) then it gets added to the database. Other than that it's junking up an other wise amazing database of content.

Just played around with the new 2nd chance board (sent some offers and accepted an offer). A few things I noticed:
-the “make offer” screen is not filtering out pins with a “traded” status so there is a risk of offering a pin you’ve already traded (see photos)
-when reviewing offers received, you can’t see if there is a backer card included (unless I missed it) but after you accept the trade, the backer card yes/no status appears.
-the only pins showing as “in warehouse” for me are the ones I’ve put on the 2nd chance board. I have another 8 or so pins that are physically at pin & pop awaiting shipment but it won’t let me offer them. Some of them will be dupes (meaning I have multiples in my traders- 1 currently at P&P, another in my possession) but if I try to select one of those, it says I have to ship it in, even though I have one of them at pin & pop already, if that makes sense.

Curious if others noticed the same. Hope this is helpful to admin as they continue tweaking the new feature. Very cool addition to the site!

I love the new 2nd chance board and think it will be a wonderful addition to the site and a great incentive for VIPs.

Along with the traded status issue listed above, I have noticed that if one person sends 20 pins in their offer, I get 20 notifications. A lot of people might miss offers by just marking all as read.

Also, when I go to make an offer, I can see on the listing that I have one of their grails, but when I go to make an offer, I can’t tell which pin is the grail.

Finally, as there are already over 137 pins listed, it would be nice to randomize the listings. Those of us who posted right away may never be seen again otherwise.

Thanks for adding this very cool feature!
