Need some extra pin backs, where to find??
I have lost a bunch of the backs to my pins and can't find a source to purchase them. Any clues or ideas? Thanks! :)

I was able to purchase a package of pin backs from one of the pin carts in WDW. They were shaped like Mickey ears and inexpensive.
If not in disney - check a local trophy company or someone who deals with pins. Little League does alot of pin trading so I have dealt with several National companies. I am not sure if they can help. I usually deal with them in mass quanities. Wilson trophy www.wilsontrophy.com Sunshine pins www.sunshinepins.com Awards by wilson www.awardsbywilson.com Pins ASAP www.pinsasap.com

Try Dizpins. They have a link page that lists about 40 sites that sell pins and accessories. You are bound to find something there. Just go down to Pin Sales and Shopping Services.

If you're having a problem losing pin backs (and perhaps pins, too, if they fall off your lanyard), Disney now sells a metal locking pin back that you might be interested in. They're a little pricey, but I've found it's worth the peace of mind not worrying about losing your pins. If you don't have access to WDW, I'm sure you can find similar accessories on the Internet.
