The owner of The Pin Shop told me today that he will be getting pins from the pilot to sell by tomorrow. I need to know by 7 p.m. tonight, who wants to get a pin. They are $20.00 each. I will make sure they are the licensed pins before I purchase them.

Please let me know by 7 p.m. tonight before I call the guy back.

Thanks,
Colleen

I just left my second message for the guy from the Pin Shack, asking if he got any pins from Benoit.

I heard that the pins were now going for $60.00 at the Fiesta! Is this true?

Not sure. Last time I asked about Mickey Mouse Balloon Pins they were $100. That was 5 years ago. I stopped asking since then.

It sounded like the pins were going through quite the ordeal this year. Thankfully i was able to get one for crowd control services to the 501st and the ballon team, but of what i heard, it was a battle to just get a pin. worried

The real price of the vader pin this year was $20.00. The questionable seller at the north end of the field was selling bootlegs for $60.00 to $100.00 this year. He was taking advantage of the limited supply and the increased demand. We reported him to LucasFilms but I don't think there was enough time for anything to be done. It was a shame. The pins were quite the ordeal this year.

Hi,

The pins sale on the Fiesta (the official) is very expensive, like on e-bay.

For the members of DRS I have given to Bob Tyrell at fiesta in his house some pins free.
