How to keep the excitement of Disney Pin Trading going after you go home!

We recently spent some time at Walt Disney World were we spent everyday of our trip trading pins with cast members and guests, and even were lucky enough to go to a Pin Trading Night at the Contemporary Resort.  Well we came home with a lot of broken sets and were left with a hole in our excitement for Pin Collecting and Trading.

When we got home I started looking for other avenues of trading pins and I found a good one in Pinpics! Pinpics.com is a totally free site, that allows you to catalog your disney pin hoard and a great way to meet new friends.  We've had a lot of fun trading with other people from all over the United States.

We just got done inventorying our pins with Pinpics exhaustive database of over 90,000 disney pins.  Our collection has grown to 960 pins that we want to keep, 247 pins that we want to trade, and if you are like us 1418 pins that we WANT!

To date we have mailed about a dozen parcels all over the country. The biggest multiple single trade we've done so far was for 5 pins.  It's been great fun so far. And if your like me you have a paypal account so you can create postage right from your desk and mail right out of your mailbox like the good old days. Paypal shipping is great, you can create postage with tracking (one caveat first class parcel has to be atleast 3/4" thick or the post office will charge your delivery address for priority mail which is usually a couple of dollars more). 

Please take a moment to look over Pinpics.com's quick tour. Come join the community and learn about your disney pins that you are coveting so closely.

So look us up on Pinpics.com our username is vangoshen maybe we can work out a trade.
