Right now I have the ones I've collected separated into each visit where I've traded pins. Just curious as to what others are doing. |

I also like Tink pins, but I really haven't seen any new ones I like lately. |

| teddibubbles Fri 12/28/2007 9:34a | I collect mostly just things that are disneyland.. or retro looking. I just like cute ,lovely, or fun. lol does that cover it all?
the last time I went to the park. I went NUTS! I bought this big leather look sellers bag. and was at the pin convention thing at the hotel. I tended to trade some of my own keeper collection instead of most of the traders I had. boy did I wheel and deal!
anyway the cool thing was at the very end of my stay. I found some of the pins.. I had hastily gave away early in my unknowing trades. so it made me happy to have them back in my personal collection again. I am soon to get my frameing done of my keepers. funny I saw this topic. as that is one chore I asked hubby to do for me drill the board I need for them. I will post pictures after its done.. one of theses years LOL |

| schnebs Fri 12/28/2007 11:28p | I buy whetever I think is too cute to pass up. :) Mainly that means any pin that has something to do with the steam trains, monorails, features attraction posters, ticket books, castles, or the old WDW logo. (What's that cover, about 75% of the pins out there?) ;) |

| califtink Thu 3/20/2008 8:54a | I buy specific character or attraction themed pins, based on favorites of mine. Also pins that feature a photo of Walt himself. Mostly, though,lately, I buy Tinker Bell. I have a small collection, and I love my older pins that have a regular pin closure on the back, rather than the tie-tack style. |

| trekkeruss Thu 3/20/2008 9:06a | I am a recovering pin collector, meaning I stopped. Thankfully I stopped long ago, before the big craze even started. So all the pins I do have... don't know how many hundreds... mostly pre-date 1996. No type, style, or theme involved, other than whatever I thought was unique. |

(yeah, big surprise there)
I also like odd-ball ones, or ones that are LE <500.
I also started collecting Disney Studio-only pins from Burbank. |
