Newbie from SoCal

Started buying pins in late 2000 and 2001 and for some reason stopped. Oh well, here we are having a blast collecting and trading in 2025. Got a ways to catch up. Look forward to meeting some of you at Disney trading events in SoCal or even Orlando. We are sure to have lots of questions. Have fun and trade on.

Welcome! I started in 2000 but then took a long break as well. Do you have a favorite character or theme that you collect?

We try to do sets and puzzles. Cinder's Slipper, Jungle Cruise, Pirates, Castles and looking forward to Haunted Mansion. Sets we have from 2025. Many OE from 2000. Lots of Disney Cruise Pins. And anything Club 33 and VIP.

Hi neighbor! With a name like shelterkat, I have to ask if you work with any cat rescues or have connections you recommend. I have a stray mama kitty coming to eat and get massages multiple times a day. I want to get her and her babies taken care of.

Welcome!

I didn't discover this hobby until 2014. And still playing catch up for my collections. Working on it slowing, over time.

Welcome to the forums! Do you still have your pins from when you used to collect?

Welcome Wakedancer!

Wonderful community Here. Sounds like you get to Disneyland from time to time. There is a good number of members who do too, me included.

Do you ever visit the trading tables across from Westward Ho?
