QUESTION Pin pics?

[Rasputin]

I am trying to price what’s left of our collection, but it seems pins are missing from the database. Is it just me?

No, their “clean up” has left a lot to be desired. In addition to stuff disappearing, stuff has been renamed, so the pins might still be there but more difficult to pull up in search.

Bleh! This is going to take a lot longer than I imagined.

Agree, quality of Pinpics and search is still very spotty. I try searching using different word combos and usually no more than 3 words in my search. Happy to try to help if you become stuck.

Sometimes it comes down to searching the character's name and filtering for the year marked on the back of the pin. Then you scroll. Of course, that only works with pins from 2000 on.

It's frustrating. Let us know if you want help.

Can you post some or all of what you have left and I can help you find them. I am usually pretty good at searching pins. You can also send me in a pm.

I will a little later this week. I am going to see how many I can find.

The Marvel stuff, seems like the type of thing that Pinpics would be missing. It's Marvel and international (assume Japan), maybe a promo. I don't think any of the databases do well with those.

Ok, here is the rest minus a Japan pin that I need to take a better pic of.

I didn't think I would find Tink before I got tired of looking, but... Disneystore.com - The Four Seasons Series - Summer Tinker Bell Pin

 

[Rasputin]

Thank you! I went through Tink 5x for other pins.

The trick with this version of Pinpics is to check the "Include description" option. So for this, I only searched "Tink leaf" with the description checked, and thankfully it was only 4 pages of results and I noticed her. Their photo is not the greatest. "Scrooge gold" got me the previous one.

Wanna try this one? It’s the last of the 202 pins that have been looked up.

I need to take a better pic.

What does the text say? What does the back say?

It looks like Japanese Disney Store, because of the UniBEARsity bears in the lower right corner.
