So this whole fake pin thing is really throwing me off and leaving a bad taste in my mouth and I can't get my mind off of it.
A) I have been examining my pins for past 1-2 hrs checking with pinpics.com
B) I have been especially looking at the pins I got from a lot from Disneyfamily801 on eBay
C) I really can't see any pure signs that any of the pins I have are scrappers or fake.
There are a few (7 of about 100) that in my opinion could be scrappers according to pinpics and other signs of scrappers posted but honestly if Disney is making thousands of pins aren't some pins going to have rough edges, and discoloration. That is just the truth of mass production.
What I am really concerned about is the possibility that the pins I traded with cast members are fake, and then another guest trades for that pin and thinks they have a real pin and it is actually fake. I have been thinking this since the discovery of these scrappers and can't get it out of my mind.
I always knew there were fake pins but I had no idea they were good at doing it, I mean fake DVD etc are usually easy to detect, but I can't and don't want to determine if these are fake.
Help any advice? I could use a second opinion. Anything....
