I'm starting to suspect that at Disney World, they just leave them on. I don't know that for sure, and I hope I don't offend anyone, but I asked some questions last month at the trade meet (held at the Contemporary), and the pin developer didn't seem to want to address what happens directly. She mentioned that they try to send pins to other parks when they get too many of something (like cuties, which she claims are popular in Japan). She also told me that they rarely lose money on the deal, which makes me think they aren't destroying any fakes--if they were, they'd be throwing away 50% or more of the pins CMs are wearing. And the last few times I've gone, I hit all the parks and many of the other locations that pins are traded, and it seems to be property wide. I'm sure some of you who have been in the hobby longer know more about what goes on--I'm certainly curious to know if there is a set policy.
