Hello,
My name is Anjeanette. I am an avid Disney (Orlando) theme park hopper and have bought a few pins over the years. Nothing to speak of. My Aunt Kay was however an avid pin trader and was a member of DVC and others which she frequently took trips on Disney cruises and resorts all over the world. Thanks to Disney she had a wonderful fun filled life. Sorry to say she passed away about a year ago and her children did not want anything so I grabbed all the Disney pins and other Disney souvenirs. I did not realize how many pins she had collected over the years. She had to them all stored away in bins. I brought home at least 10 bins full of pins and such... She has doubles, triples and multiple of pins with lots of LE'S and frames with themed sets and on and on. So I am currently going through it all, sorting it and looking them up. I want to sell all the duplicates and keep at least one of everything. Any suggestions as to how to go about this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
First of all, welcome!

:)

Sorry to hear about your aunt, though it sounds like she really did have a wonderful life! You are very lucky to have acquired these souvenirs as a memory of her as well! Hopefully you find something extra meaningful to hold on to! There are so many pins, I wonder what you have now? It will be fun to see what she has collected over the years and what you end up deciding to collect yourself!

Hope to see you around!

And have fun!
 
Thanks for all the welcomes. My Aunt passed away over a year ago now and we just sold the house so had to get everything out of there. They were going to throw these away if I did not take them. I have been slowly going through the boxes of pins, taking pictures, researching values and listing them in a notebook. Starting a spreadsheet now. Any suggestions as to what program I should use to share a list of what I am trying to sell online? For now I am using Excel. I am keeping all the Night Before Christmas pins because my grandson loves Jack and I am putting together some pins for all the kids in the family. I gave some Tinkerbell pins to a dear friend, i'll keep some for myself, not sure yet which ones. Probably just holiday pins. The rest I am getting rid of. One of these days soon I will have a list with pictures to share. Thanks again. Anjeanette
