Our first time PIN TRADING in DISNEYLAND PARIS ! | How to identify fake Disney pins | DISNEY PARIS

"we don't know much" "But I know i love you" haha you guys are great 🤣💕

[@tattie.b8594]

I’ve got a bit of extra advice with fakes from my experience. 1) the print on the back should not stop on the edge and look continuous, but on fakes there is a line/ridge from where the fake pin cast would stop. 2) If the pin has hidden Mickeys they are often fake 3) if they are not smooth or they are discoloured then they are fake. 4) if it’s not fully coloured or filled in it will most likely be fake . I’ve previously got snow whites with one lip not coloured. 5) most fake pins are the same designs or bunch of designs these often are: puffles, wilderness explorer pins, cup cakes, donuts, tsum tsums, generally they are the type (style) of pins that come in mystery packs 6) fake pins are often light or have sharp edges as they are not properly smooth. 7) if they look distorted e.g. wonky eyes or missing features they’re generally not going to be real 8) Most importantly never buy in bulk from external sources e.g. amazon as they are scrapper/traders even if they say they aren’t. Not all these qualify (except no.8) for all fakes and some real pins have some of these flaws. It’s just a case of being careful. Good luck traders!

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

WOw! So many tips! 💪🏻 Thanks! Is it oke if we use your advice in one of our vlogs? 😃

[@tattie.b8594]

SeeYouInMainstreet I would be so happy if you did, as I am enraged and upset when people get fakes, it’s happened to me and I don’t want it to happen to others. Thanks so much for your videos, I love the doses of DLP magic!!

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hi Tattie B! We will definitely use your advice for ourselves and our vlogs 😁 my experience with the fake pin turned out fine in the end (thanks to the kind cast member) but I was very disappointed when I first heard it was fake 😢 let’s try to prevent this to happen to others 💪🏻

[@Kap00rwith2os]

@0:16 Awww look at that she's all flustered

[@AshleighEmilia]

I never knew that the trading post was there! I can’t wait to go back and explore now 😱

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Going back to Disneyland Paris is always a good idea! 😃💜

[@zf3882]

I love the pins at Disney! I have about 15 from both Disneyworld in Florida an Disneyland in Paris

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Wow! How cool 😎😃

[@CalKlein]

Thank you so much for doing your videos. I’m going to Disney Land Paris this weekend and I am going to try pin trading. Wish me luck

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Good luck AND maybe we'll 'SeeYouInMainStreet'😉

[@oliverrea3924]

I have only ever bought pins from Disney shops and don’t trade. I would be to worried if the pin was fake. I wish I knew how to tell but I don’t feel confident to know if it was fake or not

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

I completely understand! At this point trading feels a little scary, but trading is a lot of fun so ..... what to do? 🤔😉

[@emmal251]

so nice he gifted you a pin :) i really want to start pin collecting now!

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hi Emma, yes that cast member was really nice 🤩 he made our day! Pin Trading is really fun 👍🏻

[@katievictoria4757]

I'm coming for the first time in November, can't wait to try pin trading! :-D

[@sophieg5820]

I really enjoyed the video :). I hope to start pin trading when I go back to Disneyland Paris :)

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hi Sophie, you should definitely give it a try! 😃👍🏻

[@denisedouven823]

I didn't know there was a shop for pins in Frontierland. I can't find any information about it on the dlp website. What are the exact opening times if you can remember them? I'm going to Disneyland in March. At first I didn't really understood the hype around pins, but I'm buying pins now everywhere when I'm on holiday so I can decorate my makeup kit with it. I would love to do a bit of pin trading while in the park so I will have some new experiences of things to do in the park.

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Saturday and Sunday from 10.00h to 17.00h. We didn't understand the hype either. But now.... Happy countdown till March!

[@6Tulips]

Wow! I have NEVER noticed that shop dedicated to pin trading, that is amazing. I really learned something very new with this vlog. I was always scared to start pin collecting/ trading because I thought it was too expensive and addicting.... looks like my suspicions were correct. Now I want to do it too! And seriously how cute are you guys at the beginning! Adorable!

[@F_S_Disney_Adventures]

6Tulips If you ever go to that Pin Trading Shop in Frontierland when they release new pins, the queues are absolutely huge! You have to get there soooo early!

[@6Tulips]

Fiona & Scott's Adventures amazing! Thanks for the Tip. And thanks to Sven and Elise for the tip to go at 16:58 and get a personalized experience!

[@F_S_Disney_Adventures]

My pleasure! This is a great channel!! Love watching these guys!

[@6Tulips]

Fiona & Scott's Adventures....agreed! I also like how Sven and Elise are such good people that they attract other good people. Thanks for sharing your tips on the pin-shop. It is so nice to learn from one another.

[@F_S_Disney_Adventures]

My pleasure again! I love how the Disney community is so friendly. Have met lots of good people via Disney KZbinrs / Disney Insta-grammers.

[@jerismith152]

Thank you so much for sharing this video! I have been trading/collecting since 2005, but only in the US parks. I loved seeing how it was in Paris. It’s on my Disney bucket list to go to one of the monthly pin trading events one day 😊

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Wow you must have quite a collection! Wonderful to hear you enjoyed this pin trading video 😃 we will definitely do more pin trading in the future 😃

[@msjardine666]

How cute was Sven when he started singing to Elise, thanks for the tips on pun trading going to try it next time we go x

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Yes he’s the best hubby! 💜 Have fun pin trading 🙌🏻

[@uselessduck5482]

Brilliant videos guys. We love collecting Disney pins and on our first attempt at pin trading we got caught with a scrapper pin too, but you learn by your mistakes. Pin trading is so much fun.😃

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

It is! And now we know how to identify scrappy pins, it’s less scary to trade real Disneyland Paris pins 😬

[@katievictoria4757]

What about pins that do have the C-disney logo (as they are officially licensed by Disney), but do not have the pin trading stamp? For example pins by loungefly or similar companies. I believe these can be traded in the US parks as long as they have the C-disney logo. What about in Paris??

[@TheMillsRevival]

If you like a pin, and want to keep it, why do you care if its fake? It's a piece of metal.

[@frozonova_]

yeh just because it is fake doesn't mean it isnt disney's pin but poorly made? who else loves disney?

[@KandiRockChick]

Nicole Mills yeah I got loads on eBay! I love pins an I don't care if I lose the fake ones! Lol you can trade primark Disney pins 👍🏻

[@JarredConeau]

Gonna try this for sure!

[@snowpunzel]

I have about 100 pins, yet I've only ever traded once, which was in Shanghai Disneyland. I just love the pins I buy so much, I don't want to part with them, so I may have to follow your idea to buy ones I don't really like, then trade those

[@frozonova_]

my strategy is to buy the cheapest pins and trade them with a cast member for ones that are more expensive and I buy only one or two that I see and like for example a 25 years pin badge or one of the hotel that I am staying in

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Good strategy!

[@eadaoinokeeffe4538]

I had the same experience on my recent trip! I did my first ever trade with a cast member and when I visited the trading post the cast member there told me it was a fake! :( Now I’m much more aware of fake pins so hopefully it won’t happen again! I also just wanted to say I love your channel and videos!! 💖

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Too bad you also had a fake pin 😦 we were recently told that most of the cast member pins are fake. That gives me the creeps 😣 thank you for watching our videos and good luck pin trading!! 🤗

[@dianesim8793]

That is one of the problems trading in the parks a lot of fake ones have been traded but it’s nice he gave you one free 😃

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Yes I was really nice from him! 💜 The real Disney magic! He told me he worked at Disneyland Paris from the beginning, so this guy definitely understands what Disney is all about 🤩

[@reetsjol7959]

Net jullie kanaal gevonden en gelijk geabonneerd! Jullie brengen dit echt super leuk! En ik kom zoveel meer te weten over disney door jullie super bedankt! Blijf zo door gaan! P.s ik ga mijn pins niet ruilen hoor plak ze nog liever aan mijn jasje hihi

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Haha! Je hebt helemaal gelijk; geniet van je pins, je hoeft ze niet te ruilen als je dat niet wilt 😃 Dankjewel dat je je hebt geabonneerd 👍🏻 💜

[@Snoepertje23]

The ‘2 of 5’ on the back of Svens pin means that it’s part of a set of 5 different pins 😊 I’m a pintrader tooo hihihi 🥰

[@mtkhalife]

Ive collected tons of pins along the years but I never ever tried trading! Might do it next time. Gonna check if I have any special ones / limited editions I didnt notice haha Cool video!!

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

So that means you’re a secret collector? 😜 We’ve seen some pretty awesome limited edition pins on the board at the Trading post, so you might end up with some pretty sweet pins 😍

[@MlpSapphire]

I’m going back to DLP at Christmas time, where abouts was that massive board located since I’ve never seen it before?

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hi Lozzarella, In the weekends it's in the Pueblo Trading Post in Fontierland. During the week it's in one of the hotels on a rotational bases (Can't tell you which it will be when you are there)

[@georgieskelsey768]

I’m really confused with the whole pin trading idea. I’ve got some old pins but no idea the ‘value’ of them. I looked at the October pin list. But are they to buy or just to trade? I saw a stitch limited edition one that I would like but I’d have to reserve a place but didn’t know if I’d have to buy it or trade it?

[@sylvia9274]

Ik ben vorig jaar begonnen met pintrading en het is zoooo verslavend! Ik heb nu al 80 pins!!! Het is zoooo jammer als je een pin ziet die je leuk vindt, maar het later een neppe blijkt te zijn... happy trading en ik hoop op meer pin video's van jullie!

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Wow 80 pins! Dat is een grote collectie! De laatste keer in DLP (tijdens Halloween) hebben we ons laten verleiden om de herfst pins met Pooh en z'n vrienden te kopen. Maar (daar gaan we weer) ik denk niet dat ik deze ooit kan ruilen. Hoe doe jij dat? Ruil je wel eens?

[@sylvia9274]

@@SeeYouInMainstreet aah leuk zeg, die pooh-set! Nou, ik zit op Facebook bij een groepje (Disney pintrading holland). Soms komen daar pins in de verkoop, dan kun je "mystery bags" kopen. Deze mensen hebben er over het algemeen best wat verstand van en weten ook of ze echte of neppe pins wegdoen. Deze mensen willen echter liever geen scrappers verkopen dus vaak zit dat wel goed. En dan koop ik dus 5 voor 15 euro ofzo, afhankelijk van de aanbieder. Aangezien ik ze niet zelf uitkies heb ik er geen binding mee en kan ik de pins waar ik niet direct verliefd op word gewoon ruilen! Of zoals jullie in deze vlog doen: starterspakket kopen van karakters waar je geen pins van hoeft en ruilen maar!! Veel plezier met ruilen en sparen!

[@clm2071]

This vlog gave us the confidence to try pin trading, we did our first trades yesterday! I can see how it could get addictive 👍😂

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Be careful! before you know it you'll own too many of them ;-)

[@clm2071]

SeeYouInMainstreet yes, the Dark Side!

[@mischiefmanaged5757]

That was fun. I've never attempted pin trading. I think I'd get too attached to the pins I like and not want to swap them. I might buy a few to keep though. The orange bird one is cute. I believe he is a Disneyland figure. He doesn't feature as much in other parks.

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Maybe you could try my way of pin trading: buying pins you don’t like and keeping the ones you do 😜 unless you all of them 😜🤣

[@Kellydbe]

« This is a lanyard that i bought years ago » 😂😂 it’s the new collection paris

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

No, really. Elise bought the lanyard 3 years ago for our first annual passes.

[@aineoshaughnessy855]

I’m going to Disneyland Paris in 2 weeks which shops can you get the lanyards in for holding the park tickets and pins thank you

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hi Aine, You get get them in MOST shops. For instance in Emporium on Mainstreet in Disneyland Park, Walt Disney Studios Store in Walt Disney Studios. There are various versions available (Collecting them is a hobby in it's own right) and which ones are were varies.

[@aineoshaughnessy855]

Thank you

[@martinwimmer2332]

Great video - please more videos about the pins 👍🏻

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Thanks Martin!

[@jamesandjaninemaroney8190]

Are the pin trading currently with covid?

[@GeekyC]

Thank you so so much for doing this ! I hope you do more trading and if I see you guys next year in may I shall have some pins as a gift for you guys ☺️ I love your channel so much and you guys doing pin trading made me smile ! I’m glad you had a good trading experience ! I’ve been doing it for a few months now and I adore it ! ☺️❤️

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hi 😃 we’re happy to hear you liked the video and that you enjoy pin trading too 😁 have fun with preparing for your Disneyland Paris holiday!! Maybe we’ll see you in mainstreet 😉😃

[@katjanielsen1586]

Where are these trading post? I’m going to disneyland october 25th. And I just found out from seeing this that my Winnie the Pooh pin is fake! 😰

[@LampuhkapsChannel]

weldcome to the club!

[@Marieke_NL]

Kun je hieruit concluderen dat de pins op het bord goed gescreend zijn en dus 100% origineel zijn en dat je bij de cast members zelf alerter moet zijn? Of moet je bij het bord ook nog steeds voorzichtig zijn met ruilen? We willen graag pins ruilen tijdens onze midweek in Disney maar ik ben zo bang om niet te herkennen dat ze nep zijn!

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hoi Marieke, inderdaad nog steeds goed uitkijken bij de borden. We hebben destijds ook super verzamelaars gesproken en die vergissen zich ook nog regelmatig. Er komt zo veel nep spul op de markt. Wij pin traden voor de gezelligheid en als een pin ons aantrekkelijk lijkt ruilen we die.

[@nicolasvanbol3997]

Hey guys. Love your videos! It’s funny because I’ve also gave pin trading a try on my last stay as I was looking for new “Disney experiences”. Actually I was thinking it’s also a great way to connect with others Disney fans in the park... until I hear from you that it’s not really a normal/common thing to trade with our fellow guests? 😕 Well if you ever see me I’ll be so happy to trade with you guys! 😀

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

We heard that it’s not really common, but we discovered that not all Disney pin collectors mind to trade with others. If you see us; please ask for pin trading haha 😆👍🏻👍🏻

[@tattie.b8594]

Nicolas Van Bol many people online of places like Facebook do trading. I’m apart of 5 different groups that do trades and sales, so you can still do pins outside the parks

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Great idea! 😃🙌🏻

[@dutchfither]

Onwijs leuke video! Zei dat ik nooit pins zou kopen maar sinds ik me abonnement op Disney heb hangt ie helemaal vol hahaha. Wist niet dat er een winkel was speciaal voor de pins! Dat is goed om te weten. Nu ook nog pins kopen die je niet zo leuk vind en de volgende keer wisselen want de gene die ik nu heb wil ik ook niet kwijt Hahahah! Onwijs leuke video’s and keep them coming! :D

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Ja mijn idee was helemaal zo slecht nog niet hé?! Ik ben bang dat wij ook ‘hooked’ zijn nu 😜

[@dutchfither]

Nee absoluut! Heb na een aantal video’s me geabonneerd op jullie kanaal. Keep them coming hahaha

[@michelleteboekhorst6659]

Super leuke video! ik ben me aan het voorbereiden op mijn reisje in november naar DLP met kerstsfeer. Nou ben ik als kind heel veel geweest en als volwassene 2x, maar toen niet in een Disney hotel en in november wel in een Disney hotel. Nou krijg ik dus voor het eerst extra magic hours(oftwel hour want het is maar 1 uur.) Ik kan alleen niet echt ergens vinden welke attracties er open zijn in de studios of in het park zelf? Hebben jullie hier een recente video over?(ik heb ze volgens mij allemaal al gezien). Of gaan jullie die nog maken? Ik ben heel benieuwd welke attracties zijn er open? Als jullie dat zouden kunnen doen zijn jullie echt mijn helden! Hopelijk tot in Main Street

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hoi Michelle, wij willen graag je helden zijn 😜😂 we zullen h’m op ons wensenlijstje zetten! Dankjewel voor je idee 👍🏻

[@Liesy13]

Ik heb een aantal oude pins die ik heb gekocht in Disneyland Paris, maar achterop staat geen jaartal. er staat alleen Disneyland resort paris cDisney

[@SeeYouInMainstreet]

Hoi Lies, We zijn er ondertussen wel achter dat er zoo veel variaties op de pins zijn dat het heel lastig is om echt van nep te onderscheiden. :-(

[@petradevries537]

The CM with the 'traveling pinboard' told me today you can ask at Harrington's in the morning in which shop and when to find the pinboard that day :)
