Thank you.  I wish I would have known this back when I first started.  I bought a "lot" of pins from ebay.  All are fakes.  I don't trade them.  The saying "you get what you pay for" rings true for Disney pins. - NurseDisney  29.2 #4405 12-20-11 7:17PM Like(1)  Reply

The other night I had another example of real vs. fake with the letter Q and the Evil Queen (Hidden Mickey set 2011) with two pins. The detail was way off. You should have seen  - BaseballMickey_CM  2851.4 #16 12-20-11 7:17PM Like  Reply
Love posts like these! Thanks mr. Strawberry for the info! You are the bomb.com! I do want to put in a word about fake pins as well- sometimes fake pins are scrappers that didnt pass inspection, other times they are straight up fakes- however if you ordered on eBay or if your kid wants to trade for a fake one once in a while just have fun with it! If you want a sweet collection don't get fakes but like I said remember to have fun! It's important! :) happy pin trading mwers! - Mouseketeer.for.Short  335.3 #450 12-20-11 7:36PM Like  Reply

So pictures are fake or scrapers? The letter set that came out this year had some major fakes! They were not scrappers but the paint and borders were flat... I know they were fakes based on the sever discoloration and thick boarders of pins... I love hearing how others determine things! - Mouseketeer.for.Short  335.3 #450 12-20-11 7:46PM
