Why choose Pin Zone Trading Pins

If you've never ordered trading pins before, we’ll help you get started. Your budget, ideas and wishes will be considered by our expert team of designers. Our staff can help create a design that will make your pin the most “popular” pin while considering your budget. Simply contact us with any questions you may have.

We’ll help you determine the following:
• Quantity - The quantity of pins you order affects thel price of your trading pins. Design setup and manufacturing costs can be spread over larger orders, the more trading pins you order at one time, the less expensive each pin will be. An average order for a team of 13 is about 40 pins per player.

• Size - Trading pins come in all different shapes and sizes. Larger pins are highly sought after, but are a little more expensive than smaller pins. Because we produce many pins, we recommend pins are at least 1 ½” in size. It allows the factory more room to enhance the details of your pin, while making your pins more “tradeable”.

• Type - There are many ways to produce your pins, but we want you to have the best pin at the tournament. Because different types of pins requires different materials or a different manufacturing process, the prices will vary. Soft enamel and photo-etched are among the most popular processes to produce sports trading pins.

• Colors - Pin Zone includes up to 7 colors on your baseball trading pins absolutely FREE-of-charge.

• Free Artwork – Our experienced design team will create pin designs absolutely FREE. With your ideas and input, we will send you computer-generated artwork via e-mail for you to review. Make any changes you’d like. It only makes the pins better. Unlimited revisions are available.

    
• Add-ons - Danglers, spinners, sliders, glitter and blinking light pins are very popular with most teams, but also carry a higher price. (See our examples below). Our team of designers will help you get the most “bang for your buck” when making your pin special with our unique add-ons.

BLINKERS: Are colored blinking lights that make your pins come to life. The lights are attached to the back of the pin. Each light is battery powered and blink when turned on. Common blinkers would be the eyes of a mascot, train or car headlights, traffic signs, etc.
BOBBLE HEADS: A two-part pin. Common bobbleheads are the head of a player, mascot or figure. The top “bobble” pin is attached with a spring attachment to the base pin. (See our example on this website). The top "bobble" pin moves back and forth giving your pin a life of its own. Extremely popular in the pin trading world. You can choose to customize our stock bobblehead.
SLIDER: A two-part pin including a second mold and design for the “top” sliding pin. Sliders can be attached to the base pin with a “groove” being cut into the die of the main trading pin, then the top slider pin, will fit into the groove of the main pin and slide any way you’d like. Sliders, too add value to your pin. Common sliders include; players sliding into home plate, a train moving on a track or a ball being hit by the bat of a batter.
SPINNER: A two-part pin (including a second mold and design for the “top” spinning pin. Spinners can be anything from ball, logo head, stop sign, etc. We can experiment and design anything you’d like. As with the two-part pins, spinners are attractive and enhance tradability. Ask us about our “stock” spinner game pins
DANGLER: A two-part pin (including a second mold and design). Danglers are usually attached with a simple “jump ring”. Danglers add extra value to your pins and make them more tradable. We offer stock dangles including ball, ball & glove, and many others. Just ask our experienced sales representative which dangle would be best with your design. You can also add to our custom dangles (include the year, your state, etc.)
GLITTER: Glitter paint can be used on virtually any place in your pins. Choose the spot that stands out the most. Glitter adds that jewelry-like dimension to your pin (for a smaller cost than the other add-ons. You can choose from a variety of glitter colors to add “glitz” and sparkle to your pins. It is the most inexpensive way to make your pins more tradable and classy.
