I'm sure you know it. People "misread" a trade request and though you were offering a different pin so they cancel the agreement the minute after your excitement grew. Or someone declines because you're European, or you don't have the original backing card, etc… Pins that were once so close are the worst.

And these are my "once close" pins. If you see anything between my traders, please let me know. You can also let me know what you're searching for, even if I don't have it. I also have access to UK Disney Store and I'm open to merch trading as well. I also make my own tote bags with my own designs. Anything!

I'll start with three Tangled grails, they're special to me. I've always been so close to them, and yet, I'm always so far away.

Designer Villain (Gothel)
Tangled PODM (I would really love to find a lantern scene!)
Rapunzel Christmas Pin-Doll

DSF Beloved Tales (Little Mermaid)
Ariel Grotto
May the Fourth Be With You (Stitch as Yoda)
Stitch and Scrump in costume (Stitch as Queen of Hearts)
Stitch as Cheshire (this pin has never arrived to me in perfect shape)


WDI Flynn and Rapunzel Valentines Day
Designer Fairytale couples (BATB)
Revenge of the Fifth (Stitch as Emperor Palpatine)
Designer Villain (Queen of Hearts)
DSF Beloved Tales (Alice in Wonderland)


Pin'Art Event (Stitch as Picasso)
Jessica as Mona Lisa
DSF Beloved Tales (Wall E)
Anna and Elsa Jeweled Snowflake
Maximus Chinese New Year 2014

My journey up until now (the "once so close pins" I've found) <3

Stitch with Little Green Men Hat - awaiting delivery yay!
Designer Villain (Ursula) - thank you Arielskellington1423!
Ariel's Undersea Adventure (Ariel and Eric) - found it!
Stitch and Scrump in Costume (Stitch as Sorcerer) - have it!

Thanks for reading!
Don't be afraid to ask to trade for something else. I'm always searching for wants.

I think luck was on my side yesterday. Arielskellington1423 posted a new sales thread and I have enough for Designer Ursula! Then someone posted some traders on Facebook and they agreed to a trade for Stitch as LGM. I'm so excited!

Yay! That's so great! I was tempted to buy some of Matt/Crystal's Ariel pins too, they have some good ones. Good luck on finding the rest of your pins. I love that Belle and Beast couples pin! Congrats on your two most recent finds!

Oh yes, I wish I had more budget for a few more haha, that Ariel/Eric designer pin *swoon*!

And thanks so much! I'm so happy right now, this forum has really helped me find some amazing pins.
 
Thanks mickeymousje! I hope so too ^^

If anyone wants to trade for the next UK pin (the crocodile from Peter Pan), I can order that one.
 
I'm going to add this pin to my "once so close" pins. I bought it from someone but they backed off. It's the first holiday pin I like (mainly because it doesn't say 2014, it just says "Happy Valentine". The WDI Tangled Valentine pin.
