    came in the mail this morning :D
    Eeeheehee. I'll have an Enforcer and BYOC pass by the end. Wonder if I can scrounge up a 3-day pass, too >_> (I'm a picture framer, so collecting things in sets has an even more complex/expensive layer when it comes to framing things ;D )

    Looking forward to (hopefully!) meeting @Ayefkay and @Drayven_Darko at PAX Aus!

    Hey! That would be great. We should try have a forum meet up at some point if it isn't already being organized. So are you going as an enforcer or just looking for the badges?

    Forum meetup sounds like a thing worth doing.

    I am Enforcing - you'll find me at the PC/BYOC room practically all weekend. (Come find me for trades ;D )

    It seems there is a forum meet: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/175369/pre-pax-boardgame-night-s-in-melbourne-it-s-up-to-each-of-you
    I'm not convinced I can make it due to set-up, but you guys should go. (Sorry for topic derailment)

    Please refrain from offers of buying or selling. Trade only.

    didnt think we were?

    Anyway, not attending BYOC, i totally would but i have to travel interstate and flying with my pc would prove to be quite the task...Will definitely try to pop by and say hi though. Thanks for linking to the meetup thread though :D

  • AyefkayAyefkay Queensland, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    feel like i have to mention before my inbox gets totally flooded. since i started this thread ive gotten so many requests to trade for pins its insane! obviously i cant trade with everyone so i just have to say i have enough people to trade AUS for EAST pins. just wanted to give other aussies a chance i feel like im stealing all the trade offers lol.

    still open for PRIME offers though :D

    I'm not attending PAX Aus, but I'd like to trade for the Australia pins. I have an unopened set of East pins, and an unopened East Chandra pin for trade. I'd like to trade those 5 pins for the equivalent 4 set of Australia pins, and the Australia Chandra pin. I'm also attending Pax Prime, so I'd be willing to pick up pins from there to trade as well. East for Aus pins are a little more tangible, since we don't quite know how many Prime pins there will be. I figure we would each pay our own shipping costs. Please reply here or send me a private message if you'd like to trade.

    On a somewhat related note, what does everyone think about a thread that documents successful (or unsuccessful) trades between forum members? Zerzhul has mentioned that the forums don't give any protection, but I figure this thread could at least help in some fashion. For example, I make a successful trade with Ayefkay. I write down what we traded in a post, and then he comes and confirms it in a different post. Now anyone can see that at least this transaction was successful. They can look at post history, join date, or whatever they want to help guide them in making future transactions with people on the forum.

    I wouldn't make a separate thread for that, you can put it here if you want to self-police some. Then again, both parties could collude to make themselves look more trustworthy (that would take a very special kind of asshole, but it's possible).

    It would probably help if we had the Got/Need format and handled it similar to the hotel sharing thread. For example:

    Got
    Merch, Zombie Tycho, Cardboard Tube Samurai

    Need
    TableTop Tycho, PAX Kemper

    Then you can handle the trades in PM.

    Looking for PAX AUS Pin set, willing to trade East set or upcoming Prime set.

  • AyefkayAyefkay Queensland, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    bit of news regarding the DLC pin
    The physical rewards (USB Drive, poster, and pin) have been held up by one of our digital rewards: we're still putting the finishing touches on the digital formatting of Book 3. Our target ship date for physical rewards is now 7/11, and we'll be sending out a survey tomorrow to get every qualifying backer's current shipping address.

    cool! was wondering when they'd ship them

    I missed the Klickstarter ... wish I had known!

    I have an extra set of pins from PAX East, will be attending PAX Prime, and will be looking of PAX Australia pins ... I love the look of that set! Other than eBay, anyone have good ideas on how to get the Australia pins?

    I'm going to be getting multiple sets of everything at Prime, so anyone who wants to trade from Aus, East or even East 14 (you planning-ahead planners, you) can send me a message.

    It seems like they are going to run out pretty fast. Anyone at East know when the merch booth ran out of Pins?

    I was at East, and I think they ran out of Merch pins first, about the middle of the second day, maybe? and they totally ran out of pins by Sunday noon or so... maybe earlier.

    BTW - I was wearing my pins, and my PAXEAST pin fell off ... I was in the tabletop area, and searched the floor for about an hour; never found it. Be careful if you wear you pins!

    Lost Pin nightmare. Do you think it got snagged, or was it simply that the back was loose and gravity did all the work?

    I think I'll wear the lanyard to show I have Pins to trade, but I'll keep them in a bag for safety.

    Interesting that the Merch Pin went so quickly, but apparantly it was one of the more traded ones. It would be good if they published numbers of how many there are in distribution when they decide to stop production. "DLC Pin - 200, Merch Pin - 1,000,000" etc.

    No Aus Chandra. An oversight, or conspiracy to keep the "Where to find it" hidden until you get to PAX? Maybe you have to hunt Greg Leeds with a net and wrestle the Pin away from him?

  • AyefkayAyefkay Queensland, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    no chandra or DLC podcast pin, most likely an oversight.

    this is about a month old but i think its safe to say it will be the same deal, go to the WotC booth and play the game to get the pin.

    Oh man, that new Chandra pin is awesome. I have a PAX East Chandra pin that I can trade for the PAX AUS one. Plus I'll be going to Prime so if anybody down under would like to trade a full exclusive set just let me know.

  • AyefkayAyefkay Queensland, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    hmm......there are a couple of banners and ads around the PA site (notably in PA store and PA Report) advertising the core set. Looks like theyre trying to spread the word a bit. Guessing there will be some news coming soon.

    I'm taking a guess that eventually the core set will change too. I imagine the current set as the first volume in sets that would change every year or so. Just a guess anyways.

    I think the Core sets might change yearly, but I would be disappointed if the Staff Pins changed that frequently. It will be so difficult to collect all the Pins when not everyone can get to PAX every year.

    its confirmed that there will be a new set available to purchase between pax aus and prime in the online store, not sure if that will replace the core set, probably not for a little while longer. but its the nature of collectables that older pins will lose their availability as time goes on, so if youre keen on collecting all of them its probably best to get them sooner rather than later.

    also: 9 more days to PAX Aus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I just got my physical rewards for the DLC podcast kickstarter. The pin looks really good. I like that the backer is differentiated from the current East and core sets. I wonder if this will be the case with Prime and AUS sets also.

    Given that it was only available if you backed the DLC at $150 or more, and there were only (184+55+6) 245 backers the Limited Edition is a slight understatement. I think the odds of someone trading that is very slim.

    I will now be fervently checking the mail every day until it arrives. I already have chills at the thought of it getting lost in the mail.

    Edit: I wonder when they will get around to putting it on the Pin Page.

    Might be a good idea to remind a pa member on twitter about it. As it seems like an oversight

    In all honesty, I doubt I would have backed a $150 anyways. It's awesome, but I'd have a hard time justifying that kind of expense with the wife.

    I'll have to try to collect some more harder to get pins like Zombie and CBTS. Maybe someone would consider a trade with enough exclusive loot....

    I would probably wait until after PAX Aus and PAX Prime to bother them about it. At the very least until after PAX Aus, since that starts tomorrow. Extremely unlikely you would get a response anytime soon.

    Agreed, I'm just throwing it out there. In the long scheme of things Pinny Arcade has only just begun. I just figure that hard to get pins right now are going to become nearly impossible to get pins in the future, so I'm trying to get as many as I can as fast as I can.

  • y2capeyy2capey Registered User new member
    I know I'm a brand new user so getting anyone to trust me will be a stretch..

    but I was at PAX Aus today and will be all weekend. If anyone is willing to trade me I will pick up an Aus Pin set for you.

    I'm after an East set, Zombie Tycho and CTS Gabe.

    Make me an offer.

    I'm willing to send mine first as well

    I got my DLC pin in yesterday and I love it. Finally get to set up my display box. I managed to get the complete set for at least a few seconds before the Australia ones came out!

    Make sure you get a Chandra pin to trade, I'll definitely be after one of those.

    I am looking for a PAX Aus set. I am willing to trade an upcoming PAX prime set for it. I will be getting a few sets form PAX Prime, so if anyone would like to trade the PAX Aus set please send me a message.

    Hey! We have the originals! Don't make me think my set is incomplete! !!!!!!!!

    I have nothing to trade, so the only promise of trade would be for an East 2014 set. I think I am going to just stick with getting pins from the PAXs I go to.

    It looks like Microsoft/343 did their own pin sets for SDCC. Each Halo related booth, demo, and panel earned you another pin. As a Halo fan I hope they repeat it for PAX Prime. But at the same time I think that it's kind of dumb that they chose to support Comic-Con instead of PAX Aus.
