[@kaleikealoha6775]

I'm always hesitant to start pin colleting because it's never ending. Lol.

[@baseball90242]

I wonder if they pin trade in heaven

[@kaleikealoha6775]

@baseball90242 even if they do, you can't take your collection with you. Lol

[@freshtapcoke]

Yeah, it be like that, but it’s a fun activity if you go all the time.

[@happysheepies7321]

Exactly ❤

[@jace0728]

My mom passed away not too long ago and she would snag pins that went on sale and such. My dad doesn't want them so I inherited a pile of them. I'm trying to build my collection up! I love pirate pins!

[@zikikki1]

When I went with my son this past January to WDW, we loved looking at all the pins in the shop but hadn't bought any to trade. We stopped in one of the shops at the Polynesian while waiting for dinner reservations to look at them, and the amazing cast member let him pick one for free! We traded it a few times during the rest of the trip (always taking a pic of each to remember). It was a fantastic bit of magic

[@happysheepies7321]

Love this ❤

[@Cullenore]

I’m a pin collector, not a trader. Loved LOVED this video. You’ve helped increase my willingness to mayyyybeee do some trading one of these days, Chris. You always make me smile. Thanks, friend! Good luck finding Hades eventually! ❤❤❤❤

[@Bowling_Dude]

I am also a collector. I purchase a lot of limited edition pins that are park specific or character specific like Stitch or Figment. I also find pin trading to be a blast, however I need pins I don't care about in order to trade with. luckily for me I'm from florida and it's remarkably easy to find disney pins at garage/yard sales down here so that's where I get most of my pins to trade. I also get some of the mystery collections and or limited edition pins i'm not too interested in to trade as well so that someone else who might really want that pin but doesn't neccisarily want to spend money to get it has a chance to.

[@Bowling_Dude]

I also do a lot of unofficial pin trading and my rule is even if it's a pin that I absolutely love, if it is a child, I will trade whatever pin they want because at the end of the day that kid might get an amazing memory from trading for that pin and to me that's more valuable than "I'm keeping it because it's special." The only exception to that rule is if it is a pin I got from my grandmother but I don't normally have those in my display bag anyway.

[@Richard-vf6mr]

We use to trade some but, during 2023 we started to notice there was no good pins on the boards anymore. Anything to would buy to trade was always better then what would show up on the boards. Then shortly after that disney starting doing those other secure boards that you have to buy and open mystery pack in front of them. Which only allows for one trade. :/

[@PerkHopper]

I was just there on Thursday and for the first time went wild trying to find Robin Hood (from the 50's) and I ended up doing the same thing you did...went to every pin trading store including the downtown Disney one by the monorail. I ended up with 2 pins (each for about $20 😅). But now I may be in trouble because trading seems super fun. There is always something new and fun to get into (and expensive) ha!

[@bobbijodubelaar6151]

I like the shadow box idea because you know the ones you are trading are authentic. I love trading but I am so put off by it because of all the fakes. :( If I saw the one from the blind box I wanted in the shadow box it would be fun to see which two you got and then trade for the one you wanted straight away. Great video.

[@fourrs2105]

We had so much fun collecting pins in November. We started on pressed pennies too.

[@magicaladventuresyt]

Great informational video Chris! I was hoping you’d make an update to your previous beginners pin trading. Magical Adventures approves of this video! To all you beginners: Pin trading and collecting is extremely fun and addicting!

[@Nancy5384_]

I didn't know about the shadow boxes throughout Disneyland. Thanks!😃

[@aliciarojas2080]

I loved this type of video! I had fun going along with you in search of the infamous “hades” pin 😂 please take us along more shopping adventures

[@goofyrulez7914]

I love the pins but I especially love my magnets, I have my whole refrigerator decorated with them and will sometimes just stop and stare, thinking of the great memories. (Happy New Year to you and yours.)

[@dznyluver_Melynda]

Such a fun video! I have been going to Disneyland my entire life and never understood how the pin trading works. I just may have to give pin trading a try now 👍🏼

[@steveneiswender7475]

I love Disney Pin Trading. One of my favorite things to do in Disneyland!

[@patrickfung8565]

I pick up a pin every trip and I always shy away from the random boxes only because I’d fall into the chase. I had no idea about the shadow box! Thanks for the tip.

[@keithbarnes9419]

This is how log I have been pin collecting. I got upset when they increased the pin prices to $6.00!

[@carlredington881]

YES! I'm so happy you put out an updated video. 😊😊 💜🧡

[@RMCToo]

I can Pin Trade ALL DAY! Thanks for sharing this video..... We just got back from Tokyo Disneyland and there are NO VILLAINS (seriously NO MERCH! with Villains bcause it brings 'bad luck' to your home? ! ) anywhere in the park. I was NO HAPPY at all about that actually. As I share my Love of all things Villains on my channel. Richard

[@gregorywelch1362]

Always fun to go on the hunt with you. Love the inspirational messages always so positive and uplifting.

[@splashinreno7735]

This was great information. Thank you for taking us along.

[@marcmooney9293]

My son and I have been collecting together since 2005. We have several lanyards and a collectors book full of seasonal pins and different sets. We don't usually trade though lol. And now I just buy one or 2 when I go on my annual trip. But I used to buy alot more!

[@Bowling_Dude]

dear Chris. I don't know if you will see this message but I would like to say thank you. although I have only discovered your channel recently I have been a fan of disney parks my entire life. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with a very rare type of blood cancer and have not been able to return to the parks since my diagnosis. I appreciate watching your videos because of all the positivity. your channel has really helped me get through a very difficult year. thank you for providing the content you do as it makes at least 1 person smile (and i'm sure there's a lot more than that)

[@taracheung7697]

Thanks for making this video! We might start pin trading next time we go to Disneyland because now we know how. 😊

[@chrislayne3765]

I would like to just say Thank You for the amazing positivity you have in all your videos. Thank you for all the DL Parks and area info. It helped us on our trip out there a few weeks ago. We cant wait to get back there. It has been one of the craziest and most stressful years of my life and your videos have brought us entertainment and positivity. Even as an adult its awsome to see and hear your positive attitude on everything, even when you cant find that sweet pin lol. Hopefully we can make it back out there before too long. Thanks.

[@AlphaStorm98]

YAY! It’s about time you do pin trading haha! I’ve been pin trading for years :) but I still really enjoyed your video! Thanks Chris!!!

[@tinal3852]

Omg!, I never thought I would be invested in you finding hades!!! Thanks for taking me along.

[@steveninaz9576]

Thank you Sir. Disney pins are my weaknesses when we go to the parks.

[@joeleon5009]

Great video Chris!! I do not collect pins however I have a friend is a pin collector/trader and watches PPP. During my trips to Disneyland, I go into a lot of stores to see the latest merchandise and I do run into pins. I have nothing but great hopes for people that participate in pin trading and it's fabulous. I hope that you find Hades in the park sometime. Thanks as always my friend and Disney legend, Chris

[@brandikrafczyk1012]

Love pin collecting thank you for this awesome video sending you happy thoughts and blessings ♥️🎄

[@user-bp9pn7nm9y]

Thanks you for your note. I am going through a hard time. Thanks you for going through the park for me ❤❤

[@billj8817]

I have not been there in over a decade and will be there... tomorrow! Thank you for the content and info!

[@saturnino315]

I started with a kingdom hearts pin I found in one of the shops. I love this hobby.

[@NothingButSomething.]

❤❤❤ Going to Disney in January hope to see u there!!

[@disneyanddaysout]

We love you pin videos 😍

[@MUNDOM316]

Some people get a little too serious about these pin collections. I don’t mean everyone, I know it’s a fun hobby and I mean it’s probably not much different from me collecting shot glasses or when I use to collect Pokémon cards, but I’m talking about the ones who go to the park just to stand/sit around in a few spots around the park displaying their collection to trade, I’ve seen a couple who will take up a whole bench. Or the one who’s set up in the dirt right when you go into (I think) Frontierland, almost looking like a mini swap meet at the park lol

[@Encantada777]

“I’m amazing” 😌 Thank you Chris 🫶🏻

[@BUY.YOUTUB.VIEWS.314]

You have reached your peak with this video

[@mdavis6236]

You make great videos Chris. Baseball season can’t start quick enough, right? Keep up all the hard work.

You're the BEST Chris!!! Happy New Year to you, Amanda and Miles!!!

Happy new year!!

[@patriciachicco9763]

I love Disney pins!!! ❤ good luck finding Hades!

[@katievictoria4757]

Big Hades fan here too! Hades, Scar & Frollo for me! 😄

[@TankCop]

I was at Disneyland on Christmas Day pin trading at the tables for 3 hours with another pin trader. Wish you could have been here then. I will however return with much more epic pins on May 6th and 7th. Will be at the tables after I use the rope drop “Golden Hour” to get on Indy, Pirates, and Thunder Mountain. After will be getting done chicken at Golden Horseshoe restaurant then should start my trading from 10am(ish) till the 3pm removal time.

[@MKPisblessed]

Yes. Please keep doing these vidoes

[@BonitaBeach13]

Love Disney pins!!!

[@mtnlaurel12]

That was fun! I haven't tried pin trading.

[@nicoleslagoski8779]

Thanks for the video. I am a sometimes pin trader in WDW. I have not seen these shadow boxes in WDW but what a great idea!

[@julierobles6]

I was on pins and needles waiting for a satisfying ending were you got Hades! Hahaha fun video.

[@ritaloy8338]

I have been collecting Cheshire Cat Pins. Some I have acquired pin trading. Some I have purchased at the Disneyland Resort. Others I have purchased from Ebay. I intentually picked Cheshire Cat because I knew that I could never complete all the Cheshire Cat Pins. I have Cheshire Cat Pins from every Disney Property around the world. There are also official Disney Pins from other places such as the Disney Store in Hollywood.

[@michaelsullivan3581]

So cool! I had fun! Lets go pin trading at Disneyland again sometime! Yay Chris!

[@cherylpalian3254]

I love villains. I would need all of them. Also, you’re the awesome one

[@TaniaEstes]

Muppets set is awesome!❤

[@CodeytheArtist]

Hey, I've recently discovered that the Little Green Men store in Tomorrowland also has shadow boxes too! So there are a bunch of places that allow you to buy pins and trade for what you'd like!

[@user-gc3kv6gk8s]

Hi Chris. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I love looking at and buying pins. I don't trade. I buy the ones I really like.

[@kerrizor]

One of the fun things about pin trading or collecting is you have a reason to wander the shops a bit more, as they all have different subsets of the overall offerings! (Also, I think the trader you were looking for in DCA is the shop over by Smokejumpers/Soarin ?)

[@lizbethacosta1375]

I agree! I love stopping in each pin store on each visit.

[@Bobby10241]

Hades is my favorite too

[@RFLEEZYUBZ]

Never been into pins but loved this video. I wouldn’t mind a few of the best pins of my fav characters… 😅

[@Michaelmccutchen]

A little while ago they had star wars bounty hunter mystery boxes that were realy cool

[@MasatoKay]

Loooooooove pins!

[@luradennis7405]

First 😂 love your videos ❤

[@nickdavis8576]

Thank you Chris for being a bright shining light. I'm a big fan and would love to meet you in person. My wife and I will be in Disneyland January 4th.-7th. It would be amazing to run into you. Anyway happy holidays to you and yours.

[@davepruitt2739]

Excellent info. Love pin trading. Happy hunting

[@TekGeekDad]

can not believe you traded beaker! He's my favorite.

[@TaskMaster-hy6bp]

the pin trading looks like it would be fun to do to see what it would be like inspeacaly if you're doing it for the first time

[@themaddscrapper-mayradalla6354]

I collect pins, but I'm not a trader, but now that I know about that shadow box...who knows?!!! Thanks Chris!!! May have to revist the massive amount of pins I have! LOL

[@treye5685]

I love the Disney pins. Also today is my Birthday.

[@bglions2001]

such a fun video, this is how i spend my days on solo trips...lol

[@bglions2001]

sorry for all the comments, lol

[@linzzz519]

Your devotion to Janice is cracking me up!!

[@jorgenunez5707]

You should Now do a video on where they have the shadow boxes for Secret Reveal That way for future pin trading

[@Bekahrama]

"We Got Janice" should be a single on Spotify. 😂

[@lukeroberts3464]

You’re an awesome 😎 KZbin channel.

[@chombligrl]

Hey if you’re still at Disney you should swing by and say hi to Steve at Great Moments with Mr Lincoln. We were just at Disney for 5 days and he is a Disney treasure! Tell him his friends from Bakersfield say hi and we’re waiting for the next questions he has for us soon.

[@michelek5819]

There are TONS of pin trading groups online where you can trade for specific pins you’re looking for!

[@tinarash7772]

You can get Haydes next time. It'll be hard to wait, but it'll be there. .........maybe you'll get it for your birthday.

[@rbobinsky]

Hey Chris! It's NEVER a mistake to go for Janice...fer sher, really!!!!!! Hahahahahahaha!

[@daprovocateur]

The first time I ever even heard of pin trading was the recent news article about shutting down pin trading in Frontier Land

[@bglions2001]

i love pin trading. My goal is always to find Tinkerbell pins :-)

[@bglions2001]

my rarest pin is one featuring the Nemo crabs....heeeeeyyyy!

[@user-vw2jk4nv6u]

Hey CHRIS, I love the evil villains and I try to collect the pins. but, I haven’t been back to Disneyland in sometime I do have a question for you. Can you tell me why they took the evil villain store out? It’s never been the same. I loved it when they used to have the evil villain store. I’m not sure what year was that they took it out completely . PS I just started watching you. I love to hear what you say at the end of every video. It’s always heartfelt, because there’s so many people who fill alone and I think you bring them hope.

[@darcyweirich1531]

I collect pins but have never traded any, usually because I only buy pins that mean something to me. This video, though, makes me want to buy some Muppets set & trade to collect all of them.

[@davidcrawford219]

Starting with Haites is a good way to teach kids about horrific monster villains. 😂

[@daprovocateur]

Did you have fun, Chris? Looks like you had a “pin-ball!!”

[@Ed-R]

Hi Chris. Janice is WAY COOLER than Hades. Good luck on finding Hades. The Provost Fam and the PPP Fan Fam are the Coolest and Most Amazing People out there.

[@emmapinter8075]

I had a cast member in the shop near grizzly river run in DCA refuse to trade a pin from the board with my 8 and 6 year old as they said the pin they wanted to trade was not a ‘authentic Disney pin’, I was a little shocked.

[@WonderColumn]

They have a Hawkeye pin @4:52. 😢 Wish I could afford to go to Disney. 😭 Thanks for the video.

[@jasonneverkovec2889]

We always bring a few Hates pins with us to Disneyland just incase we see you just so we can gift them to you!

[@markosbrutos7002]

We need a Trader Sam’s secreats revealed with Cameraman Greg!

[@ChristopherDimitriousPhanara]

I bought a world map for my room, I’m gonna put a pin on everywhere that I’ve traveled… … but first I gotta travel to the top 2 corners of the map so it won’t fall down

[@fortunesrazor3491]

Buy it when you see it.

[@mikecalzaretta9614]

ask: What is the rarest pin and do you have one???

[@amrobear]

Oh Chris!!! I got a Hades pin in Wlt Disney World this summer.purchased with you in mind. Let me know if you want to trade...

[@freshtapcoke]

Haha I call World of Disney World of Color all the time.

[@user-qo6du4hc4w]

Hi chris

[@mikecalzaretta9614]

ask: Couldn't one pin gift store "call" the other one in Downtown Disney and ask if they had a Hades? That would save on shoe leather.

[@justinallen1383]

Let’s us know if you end up finding Hades. If not, I’ll keep an eye out for you when I’m there for the half marathon weekend

[@Onniesprairiegarden]

Do they have these shadow boxes at Disney World, too?

[@jjasea]

I never heard of pin trading before but it sounds expensive. Also my wife and I have the same (rare) pin. We got it for taking a tour at DL in August. I would trade but I don’t know what to trade for.

[@tothetune]

Do you know Ben? He’s the pin master

[@slescoe]

First!!

[@DrDrama2000]

Please Chris or anyone correct me if I am wrong but I thought the ones with Mickey on them that you said don’t trade for were cast member pins and they only way to get them was to trade for them?

[@DisneyACC1986]

Question do they have pin trading in Disney California Adventure too or is it just Disneyland also do they have any Disneyland or DCA Pins that has their names on them?
