The price of every trading pin is determined by:
1. Type of pin
2. Size of the pin

4. Number of Colors
5. Trading Pin Accesories

Please visit our trading pin pricing page

What kind of pin should I get? ?

We recommend two styles for the best value / price of your sports pins: Photo-etched lapel pins and Screen Printed or Offset Printed lapel pins.
We do not recommend Cloisonné lapel pins because of the pin will be too heavy to wear.

What size should my trading pin be?

The size of a trading pin usually varies between 1 ¼" and 2" inches, however we can provide with any size of pins you desire.

How do I make my trading pin to be "unique"?

The trading value of any trading pin can be greatly enhanced by the addition of uniquely designed danglers, spinners and other accesories.

Any hints regarding the pin design?

A few other things to consider in designing your pin: Adding dates to the design will allow the players to remember which game they received the pin.

Irregular shapes and lots of colors will make your pin a desired collector pin and other teams will want to trade with your team players.

Danglers and blinkies are very popular as well as glitter inks and cut outs.
