That pinpics member has some serious grails, too!

He values his pins a little more usually than I think they're worth, so he hasn't gotten that pin from me yet, but we have traded other pins in the past.

Book 2 page 3

This page has just 5 pins on it.




Pretty sure the Cast Lanyard is legit...it is gorgeous IRL. I have seen a lot of scrappers of it but I think this is the first authentic one I’ve seen.

I've been trying to hunt down that Triton Carousel set if you decide to let it go.
I think some of my favorites things have been seeing the sheer randomness of how this person stored their pins and also that gorgeous crest pin with Ariel & Eric together.
 
Rarest pin so far is probably the TDL one on the last page with the shell. I've only ever seen it on eBay once.

So many amazing Ariel pins, Megan!! I’m definitely not showing my daughter this thread! Seriously, though, i have loved following this thread and if there are any Ariel or Ariel/Eric pins that you won’t be keeping for your collection, please pm me.
 

Well, I’m definitely not keeping it! So I’m sure we can work something out! I didn’t even know it existed! Lol!

I haven’t decided yet on the Fantasy Tales...( Is that the Ariel Eric you are referring to?) I’ve never been crazy about pins with hinges/moving parts unless they really scream at me.

I have never seen it before! It’s not my favorite style (glossy top - know what I mean?) if I can trade for anything I actually like or sell for a decent price I will probably part with it.
