Show #81 - Pin Trading




Dave’s Disney view show

Summary: <p> Today, I'm talking about Pin Trading.  <br> </p> <p>I follow the history and answer: How did it start? And roll around to : How do I do it?<br> </p> <p>Its pretty thorough except for one simple thing that I failed to mention: green lanyards on CastMembers means they trade only with children.<br> </p> <p>I also delve into what you might trade, different types of pins that are available to trade, and even where you might get some pins a little cheaper to get you started. <br> </p> <p>Its a fun activity that really doesn't cost much and is easy to get home.<br> </p> <p>As for me, I don't trade, but I do have a couple of pins, including the 5-legged goat that appears on the mural in the Contemporary.<br> </p> <p><img height="155" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Tz551djTM0o/Twb1fAwCAMI/AAAAAAAACNg/TYMwjgCQMlY/s200/244173066_tp.jpg" width="200"></p> <p>Of course there are CastMembers who can help you, and some signage that gives the quick overview: <br> </p> <p><img height="200" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XWdrmZRwpu8/Twb1Tu7Sk_I/AAAAAAAACNU/qEdsfhrMeeY/s200/DSC02126.jpg" width="150"></p> <p>You can also visit a couple of websites to help you:<br> <a href="http://eventservices.disney.go.com/pintrading/page?id=getStarted">Disney's overview</a><br> <a href="http://pinpics.com/">PinPics - an anthology of pins </a><br> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_pin_trading">Wikipedia</a><br> <a href="http://www.blogger.com/allears.net/btp/mil_pin.htm">All Ears Pin Trading Guide</a> </p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/daves-disney-view/message
