QUESTION Trusted sites to buy?

[BazookaJoe]

Hello all,

I had a question regarding where I could buy authentic Disney pins when I'm not at the parks. I've done some research and the sites I've found are the following. Can anyone else recommend anything to me or if I'm missing anything? Thank you in advance!

- Sites:
Disney Official Store
Disney Pins Blog
Your WDW Store

- Tracking:
Currently using Pin and Pop
I also reference Pin Pics

I'm trying to stay away from Ebay and Amazon altogether, as my past experience with sports pins has proven too many fakes on there. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions!

There are also officially licensed Disney pins on the Loungefly & BoxLunch websites. I like the PALM (Pin a la Mode) Disney pins. ArtLand pins are really expensive, but beautiful.

Great! I wasn't aware of these before! Thank you for the information.

Depending on where you are located going into Boxlunch and Hot Topic stores is a fun option (they are nationwide.) I find Boxlunches and Hot Topic stores where ever I am and have time to spare. Boxlunch stores are also doing a limited trial of in store trading (although Boxlunch pin boards may not be a good source to avoid fakes... as is the case with most pin boards. Mentioning because of the possible additional fun factor.)

additional licensed sellers:
krakenpintrade.com

Loungefly, Disney, Star Wars, Hello Kitty Backpacks, Wallets, Bags

Modern Pinup

www.modernpinup.com

figpin.com
gamestop (sometimes) (online and in stores)
five below (sometimes) (never shopped them online, but maybe online?)
loungefly.com

While Disney has always licensed pins, the volume exploded over the last few years, which means the number of places where you can buy Disney pins has exploded and so this list will always be a work in progress. Tracking these for US retailers is challenging enough, but a plethora...
