Hello! I'm new to the forum but not too new to trading. I've been doing it very minimally for a few years when I visit the parks, never online though.. So I'm hoping to have a bit of fun and maybe find what I'm looking for here! (Though sadly I don't have much of a collection yet so I've been more-so buying than trading. ): I'm a hoarder, I think.. lol)

I'm in Wisconsin, from Wisconsin.. Never been to Disneyland but I've been to WDW about 3-4 times now.

I'm hoping to collect all the dragons, castles, kitties, waffles, lion king stuff and whatever else I can find.. Ooo, especially the Epcot logo stuff! (I LOVE the Epcot logo!)

In my spare time I do a lot of gaming, video-type and table top/card games, too. I also raise sugar gliders! :D http://kozigliders.com

Also I dabble a bit in graphic design, I make banners, website layouts, etc. If you need help with anything I am happy to help out!
I have lots of free time at the moment because I haven't started work yet! (Just moved to Tampa in June to help out some family and I JUST got back to Milwaukee about a month ago.)


Sadly right now I don't have much for trade fodder so I will likely have to buy any pins I want! ):


I'm not sure what else to say.. but I'm happy to answer questions! :D <3 Nice to meet you all.

Hello there! We seem to have the same taste in pins. I love to collect anything EPCOT.
My boyfriend & I are currently working on it right now along with our Maleficent/License Plates collection.
 
Thanks to both of you! :D

I can't wait to get some more info in my sig and meet more new people. I've been hanging out in chat a bit. xD
 
I have been in 05, 08 and 2010 for full visits so far, I hope to be able to go more often though when I start work soon!
 
Sweet! :) I visit the parks weekly but have been on hiatus for a few months. I recently came back because of my boyfriend. I had asked him about pin trading and soon after things took off for me again! I'm going broke though. Help me!
 
Aw, I'm sorry.. ;-; I wish I could live so close but I hate FL in the summer.. I am in WI so it is too expensive for me to go to disney super often.. ;-; I definitely feel ya though, I'd be broke if I lived so close! D:
 
I've never actually been to WI but have no reason to anyways. KY is on my list because my boyfriend's family lives there. :)

Anyways, good luck with your pin trading! You'll need it especially to get through the scrappers. /:

I know nothing of scrappers yet but I am scared. ;-;
 
HI Kozi! :wavey:

Fellow cheesehead here (over in Madison). Welcome to DPF! It's a lot of fun. :)

Hello and welcom to the forum!! This place is wonderful and full of great people with loads of knowledge on pin trading. I am sure you will have a great time here.
 
@ Laura - HELLO! It's so great to meet so many awesome people and even better.. some of them live nearby! Too cool for words. Is there any kind of Wisconsin meet up at all?!

@ Redrose - Thank you so much! I have already and it hasn't even been a full day! I've met such wonderful people.. I only have about 45 pins at the moment but I can't wait until I get more so I can trade with all you lovely people! <3
 
Thankfully I only have 45 pins and I've bought 95% of them from the park stores. I haven't really traded much. I traded one pin with a cast member and was given one from a cast member because I was a n00b, LOL, but I checked both of those and they look legit from the photos/info I read! So I think I am good, amazingly! (SO far anyhow! I mean, I have SO few pins! X_X I am just lucky atm!)

Thank you, though! <3
 
Welcome! I've been signed up for a while but I am still a newbie to some things. It is so much fun and everyone is really nice!! :drool:
 
Yeah, I know what you mean. It's fun to be signed up just to meet people/trade, too! But I don't know anyone so I will probably be posting a lot to get to know people. :D

Nice to meet you too! :) I am a relative newbie myself, have been pin trading for about 2 years now, so am no expert, but I don't think there are any meets in Wisconsin....yet. I remember checking last year and I think the closest was in Chicagoland area, Schaumburg maybe (?) HOpefully Judy (Tiggermickey) will weigh in because I think she has gone to that one.
