New to this forum and new to Disney pin collecting!
Hello all! I'm a newbie at pin collecting
I live up in the northeast so I am not close to Disney World to be able to trade often. The only time I ever went to Disney World was once when I was about 10 or 12 years old but even then, I never did purchase a pin when I wanted one. Most of the pins I own come from ebay. All I can do is hope I don't get a counterfeit! (I do look at feedback and recently found seller lists) That is why I joined this pin trading community so I do not have to keep buying my pins and spending a fortune :lol:
What got me started on trading pins in the first place was when I was walking around a local flea market. A man was selling a bunch of disney pins real cheap. The ones I bought are scrappers but it did get me started on collecting. Maybe some he sold were genuine (who knows) I haven't been back in a while. It was a couple of years ago so I would go in and out of buying pins so I am still quite new.
