[EDIT] Ok pictures included a few posts down - thanks guys! :)

Hi guys, sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this in, but I'm not sure where else to ask  :-[

Essentially my niece is going on what will probably be her last trip to Disneyland Paris for a long while, as she is saving toward college/uni etc. She's been going every year for ages and wants to have one last "perfect" trip where she does all the stuff she's always meant to do in the past - restaurants, shows etc.

She has a vast collection of really nice Disney pins, all of which have been bought in the Paris parks over the years. She gave a good few of them to me and asked if I could sell them on ebay for her to raise some last minute spending money. Unfortunately as I am new to ebay I'm limited to 10 listings for my first month  :(

Essentially that leaves me with a lot of really nice Disneyland Paris badges (many with their original backing cards) which need to be sold asap!

Would I be allowed to put up pictures here to see if anyone is interested? Or if I'm not allowed to do it here can anyone recommend a place? I thought of this place first as I've used this forum in the past to plan trips and report back when I've been with my family :)

Many thanks in advance for any helpful input  :)

Hi, what kind of pins are they? I am interested in Tinkerbell pins. Maybe you could post photos of the pins as people collect different things. Could you post the the ebay links here, so people can see the listings. Also can you list if any of the pins are limited edition or cast member only pins.This information is on the back of the pins, example one of my Tinkerbell pin says Hidden Mickey Pin 2 of 5, another of my Tinkerbell pins says Limited Release of 1000.

Hi bad-pink-tink thanks for your message :)

I can't post ebay links here because I've already listed and sold my maximum of 10 this month (brand new seller account).

I can absolutely post photos and details here, I was kind of asking first if I am allowed to do so! :)

It would be a case of me posting pictures up in this forum and then taking payment in eitehr paypal or UK bank transfer. I'm happy to post almost anywhere in the world as long as it paid for ;D

There's definitely a few Tinker Bell badges, I'll have a sort through everything and see what I can find :)

Hi msRavenswood, yes I do have one Phantom Manor one - the one from the Attractions series, with the building in purple and black infront of a glow in the dark moon (its a lot nicer than it sounds!)

As I haven't had anyone say "ooh no you aren't allowed to do that" I'll have a sort through what I've got and take some pictures :) Thanks all!

Ok so hopefully you'll be able to see images below (if my html is right!)

I'll (slowly) update with details under each picture with more about each badge / set, along with a rough price. I'm happy to negotiate if you want multiple badges.

Prices are guidelines that my niece has given to me as to what she'd like for them. Some that are a little higher priced are ones that she's more than happy to keep if people don't want to pay much that for them - these are some really nice badges with happy memories for her.

The vast majority of these were bought in DLRP, and some in Florida. A small selection were swapped with others or bought on eBay. I shall specifically note those ones - she's given me extensive notes! of course I'm less able to vouch for the authenticity of these ones, but none of these look fake to me :)

As you can see from the last picture she's kept quite a few of the plastic retail cards, some which are labelled DLP/DLRP, others are generic Disney pin trading ones. If anyone wants to buy badges, I'm happy to include 1 card per pin if you want them until I run out. I also have 2 unused black DLRP lanyards as pictured, I'm happy to include one for free if you buy multiple badges. Again, when they're gone, they're gone. Thanks!
