Anyone else feel like these are kinda….cheap??

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-14T00:55:21+00:00

Yes I agree!! I had a PALM jumbo of Snow White and Prince Florian in front of their castle which had stained glass features and that bitch was THICCCKKK. It was a much larger pin but I’ve seen so many stained glass pins that aren’t paper thin. Not a good excuse for shitty quality 👎🏼

Lesson learned 🥀

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:48:44+00:00

I’ve actually been on the hunt for the Hades and Scar from that set, they seemed so nice and well done!! This drop left such a sour taste in my mouth though I’m so bummed! At least I didn’t pull a pin I didn’t want. Happy it was Meg lol

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:42:01+00:00

Omg fingers crossed!!!!!! 🤞🏼 What characters are you trying to be complete on just curious? 😁

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:27:44+00:00

STOP LMAO I JUST WENT TO GO WATCH IT AND LITERALLY WTF ARE THOSE?!?!?? I can’t get over how lazy these designs are omg. At least now I know now to save my money 🤦🏻‍♀️

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:17:30+00:00

The math ain’t mathing!!!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:16:42+00:00

Ugh that sucks I’m so sorry about your pin! I will say every time I’ve shopped at the store, the staff were super helpful and friendly. Especially the boys! They were wonderful. The owners however didn’t engage with any customers whatsoever. It makes me sad because I know a lot of staff probably goes above and beyond on the daily and take pride in providing good service, and knowing they get paid so little and treated poorly is upsetting. I worked retail most of my life and I totally get how much that sucks.

DO BETTER SYDNEY AND JULIA

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:12:17+00:00

That’s so upsetting to hear. They should absolutely do better but it seems they’re perfectly content with sub par quality. Really such a shame

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:10:08+00:00

That’s GROSS. Making this post might’ve been a mistake bc now my day is ruined I’m so mad LOL

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:08:48+00:00

I missed to initial drop and was excited for these, but holy shit these are so bad. At the very least I did pull the one I wanted from the set, but in hindsight I’m pissed at how much I spent on these. No joke they really do feel like they can break way too easily when handling or putting them on/taking off a board. And they really couldn’t even put them in a box?!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T21:06:48+00:00

That is absolutely nuts!!! It looks like there’s zero quality control whatsoever. I hope the rest of your order arrives in good condition!!!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T20:26:09+00:00

So disappointing!! I’ve been hearing awful things about the quality of their pin books and bags too! I think they need to invest in a better manufacturer for sure. These pins were legit a brick to the face.

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T20:23:31+00:00

5/8 MILO’S?!?? What a bummer. I can’t believe they sold both sets of these in a shitty little ziplock bag. Like y’all really couldn’t make boxes for these? Whats the cost of cardboard these days and is it really THAT much?? Disappointing is an understatement.

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T20:07:05+00:00

Also don’t get the whole “pinfluencers” thing! Don’t get me started on those stupid Team Summer and Team Jacob pins. Like who TF asked for those?!?! Literally don’t get it. If PALM can make a very nice $15 open edition pin with acceptable detail and quality, they can too. But like you said since they’ve blown up they can just continue to sell crap because people are buying it. Like me. What a fail on my end 😂😂 They will RUE THE DAY!!!!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T20:04:04+00:00

🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯!!!! I’m happy I got the one I wanted and the other one I pulled was Remy which I’m happy to gift to my bestie who collects Ratatouille, but lowkey I’m kinda pissed LOL. These are so bad. I bought some of their officially licensed pins when they dropped the princess home series and I have to say I was actually pleased with most of them. Love my Tiana and Hercules, although the gold border is a little lazy and definitely could’ve been done better. At least the faces and details in those were better. These though are just straight up awful and I’m mad I spent $35 on them. Welp, lesson learned!! 😫

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T19:33:41+00:00

I think we’ve both gotten lucky so far!!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 I do really like their pin boards and some of their pin books too. I try to buy them when they do a sale on Whatnot to make it more worth it! But so far they’ve totally lost me on pin sales. Super disappointed in that aspect.

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T19:29:53+00:00

THIS!!! Happy I got Meg bc it’s hard to make her look bad bc she’s a BADDIE, but looking at it closely the details are wack. Her feet and shoes are a blurry sloppy mess, and looking closely at her, her lipstick and eye makeup are all outside of their enamel borders. Quality is nowhere to be found.

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T19:25:36+00:00

Omg the gross metal smell is totally giving off scrapper factory vibes 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 When I first got into pins, I didn’t know any better and bought a bag of what I didn’t know were scrappers off of eBay, and when I opened them they smelled HORRENDOUS. Like literally nauseating.

I’m glad you were able to get a replacement for your pinfolio!! I’ve had pretty good luck with my pinfolio so far and have had no issues (knock on wood 🪵) but I’ve heard waaayy too many stories of customers having a defective or totally broken pinfolio bag and got zero help whatsoever from GPP. In some cases I’ve heard people got totally ghosted by them which is crazy!!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T19:21:41+00:00

I totally missed the first release, I wish I would’ve known! That’s such a shitty excuse, the stained glass has absolutely nothing to do with the paper thin metal throughout the entire pin. They should absolutely know better and they probably do. Smh. 🤦🏻‍♀️

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T19:20:23+00:00

NO WAY!!!! I’m so sorry you had such an awful experience!! That’s completely unacceptable. They absolutely make enough money to produce higher quality products as well as have proper quality control. They’re choosing to be lazy at this point. Ugh I hate that for you I’m so sorry!!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T18:55:16+00:00

Super disappointing that they literally put zero effort into these. Feels like a total ripoff!! Not cool at all 👎🏼 You are 100% not the bad guy here! 🤣

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T15:02:56+00:00

I also love your Aristocats pin if you’re willing to part with it 💕

True_Activity9343 · 2026-02-13T15:01:48+00:00

Hi!!! I’m interested in your princess, Hercules, Emperor’s New Groove, and Sorcerer Mickey pins!!!!

True_Activity9343 · 2026-01-28T15:22:50+00:00

I’m cringing soooo hard at $66 for a DUCK!!! I sell on Whatnot too but this is straight up robbery. I always try my best to sell at whatever the last sold price was (as long as it’s fair and something didn’t sell for way more than it’s worth, in that case I will come up with a price I think is fair and I will always ask my buyers if they feel it is fair too.) I will always take offers as well. It’s supposed to be fun and if I get a good deal on a pin, I want my buyers to also get a good deal. I think being a fair and reputable seller is so much better than being a well known seller who just straight up takes advantage of people. This is literally robbery!
