I've just finished a trade with @00Fayt00 and I have to say it was the best experience I've had so far (and they've all been pretty damn good), he's freaking awesome to trade with and super nice too!!
I'm already looking forward to my next chance to trade with him ^^
Here's a question. Does anyone out there have any PAX East or PAX Aus sets to trade? We're all looking, it seems, but is anyone actually holding on to extras?
I have a dozen or so pins from all 3 PAX's that i'm saving to trade at PAX East as well as some heads and third parties. Not sure of what exactly i'm bringing yet vs saving for the folks at Aus and Prime. I will be hanging around the Info booth a lot all weekend for my enforcer duties and will be at whatever Pin trading gatherings we plan unless some issue pops up I have to deal with.
I much prefer trading in person and dropping them into the PAX Pineconomy is a lot of fun. So many more people there that don't frequent these forums.

@Duckie is great to trade with! Looking forward to setting up more trades with her!
Pinny pals seems to think so. Quite a few East sets and pins out there, and a very small number of Aus pins.
I think there's plenty more not listed as people are saving them...I'm one of those people, I don't think I'm alone People with spares but full collections don't need to trade them right now, I don't list them because you get a lot of offers and it's a bit mean to list as "Available" when there's no current pins I'd actually accept for them.

Actually I think the opposite: I list mine because I want people to know there is a chance to complete the full set. Might not be likely, and it can't be for everyone. But just maybe.
Personally I list pins that I'm willing to part with, with the hopes of getting some of the rarer pins I'm missing.
For example: I only have 1 each of East/Aus Chandra, but I'd definitely trade them away if the right trade came up (TRADE ME YOUR AUSSIE GABE PIN SOMEONE)
I also just recently came into a 2012 Merch pin again which is up for grabs, so... yeah, I'll leave it at that, hit me up people!
Ya i list everything, I am up to trade anything as long as the price is good. I always try to respond to any trade offers so no one is left in the lurch. Usually most trade offers come in for the Aus ones. It also give you a good idea on market value of certain pins.
Does anyone know where i can ask if someone wants to be a PAX pin buddy. Like Ill get the Prime pins for them and they get east or aus pins for me? Is anyone interested?
So... how does one get on a list of people that are looking for palls attending the various PAX conventions?
I've missed my chance to get tickets for East, and live in Ohio... so Prime and Australia are even less likely to happen this year.
I am able to attempt to solve my problem by throwing money at it however.
I'm looking for Pin Pals that are attending the various conventions that I can team up with and get them to purchase extra pins for me.
I think things will get way easier for those of us that can't make it to the conventions once the blind boxes are an option.... but since I can't justify the 12 hour drive to Boston on the off chance I'll find scalped tickets for a price I'm willing to pay, trading with people in person is hard to accomplish.
Also... I'm in need of staff heads.
Take a look at my pin pall trade page and see if I have stuff you want.
currently we are at a plateau of pin trading. most trades will have already occured and distribution of exclusives and desired trades will be fairly wide spread.
seeing as most current pins are readily available for purchase through the PA store. most people are as up to date as they can be before the next PAX pin drops. I know that some people will be withholding pins for future trades, I myself have started a deep storage category of pins to trade off in a few years to give new comers a chance at some of the original pin sets.
keep up the good work and coordinate with your pinpal groups to keep those trades happening : )
Sadly, you don't have much available. I went to look if I could offer you anything.
To you perhaps (also thanks btw), but everyone I sent trades to wanted pins I had and had pins I wanted. Maybe they're holding onto them for PAX trading. It would be nice to get a reply stating why not occasionally though.

The plateau is definitely upon us. People are limbering up for PAX East. Expect a flurry of activity shortly before, then a mountain of trades during and after. The quiet comes back around May-July, right before Prime. Normally Aus would fill that gap, but November.

Everyone is basically playing the waiting game. Though, if you guys did get into a PAX Group, I would hope you're all into constant communication with your guys/girls!
Thanks to a super awesome trade, I am now in possession of a spare PAX East 2013 logo up for grabs (as well as a Handheld lounge Gabe if that tickles your fancy).
If this interests you, shoot me a PM, look at my list of wants, etc.
Still primarily looking for Strip Search and Aussie Gabe!
I know we are sort of in a lull for another month BUT if anyone has a Hatty Hattington available for trade, I'd love to hear from you! It's the last one I need to complete my set of The Behemoth pins. Any pin that is flagged as available on my pinnypals profile is fair game. I opened so many of those damn capsules but Mr. Hattington eluded me.
So I don't know if this is the right thread to be asking (I checked and I'm 99.99% positive it is), but I'm looking for someone to ninja for me at East and AUS since I can't make it those two this year due to school (damn finals!).
Also I'm looking for some trades so check my profile and let me know if you want to trade anything.
Just realized I put my last message about the Table Titans pin in the wrong thread. That's what I get for trying to multitask.
Anyway, I don't think I've done this, but these guys are awesome pals: @odinson83, @spy112, @imsorad, and of course @pedroasani. Don't even spent one moment worrying about trading with them because they rock.

I'm looking for a PAX East Logo and the Handheld Lounge Gabe. Let me know what you'll take for them (even if I don't have it yet). Also looking for a PAX East 13 Patch. Thanks, guys.

Looks like the Gabe is taken care of (courtesy of TheAggroCraig) but I'm still looking for the East Logo and the East patch.
Man, I need to pay more attention to the forums. I have a full PAX East set from last year that I've been hanging on to for no real reason other than forgetfulness. I'd be happy to trade that to someone with an available Prime or AUS set before I head to PAX East again this year.
I'm happy to ship, but I live in Boston, and I'll be in Pittsburgh this coming weekend, and Austin in May if anyone wants to meet up to trade
