Please remember that as a seller, my sales costs also include packaging tape, printer ink, printer paper, shipping supplies, sales tracking and auction listing tools, not to mention the 12-14% that eBay commissions and payment processing take off the top for fees and commissions. Prices include $2.99 SHIPPING on all FIXED PRICE items (Domestic Only). All of these costs are included in what you are paying. My pricing reflects the real costs of selling in today's market, including packing materials, supplies, listing and tracking tools, and eBay's 13 to 15% combined fees. All FIXED PRICE listings include $2.99 domestic shipping, which is built into the price. All photos are taken with an iPhone 14 Pro Max using Photoroom Pro for clear, well-lit images. High-resolution photography can make minor imperfections appear more pronounced than they are in hand. After nearly 30 years in the hobby, I can say with confidence that finding truly perfect pins is rare. Plastic sleeves may be removed briefly for photography and replaced immediately afterward. Pricing is based primarily on current and historical market data, not what I originally paid. Because values fluctuate, items may occasionally be listed at or below cost. Rarity drives value. Pins that surface only a few times a year, or not at all, are priced accordingly due to their difficulty to replace. Cast Member and non-retail pins are my focus and specialty. I also aim to be at or near the lowest total price on eBay (item plus shipping). Reasonable offers are welcome, though flexibility is usually limited. As a collector first, I focus on pins that were earned, awarded, or issued outside of retail channels. While I do sell WDI, WDS, DEC, and similar releases, retail-purchased pins simply don't carry the same weight as those directly tied to the parks and the Cast Members who made them run. After more than 26 years in this hobby, Ive watched the market cycle many times. New releases often command high prices due to online promotion and the steady influx of new collectors, while older pins quietly fade from view. Yet history shows that long-term value tends to favor earlier, scarcer pieces, especially Cast Member pins that were never meant to be commodities in the first place. With well over 300,000 Disney pin designs now in existence and new discoveries still appearing, the best advice I can offer is to look backward as much as forward. There is nothing wrong with collecting new releases, but the strongest long-term pieces are usually those with a direct connection to Disney's history, its parks, and its people. Those are the pins that have consistently held their ground over time. Many of my offerings represent a category of Disney memorabilia that was never intended for retail sale, but rather issued through service, recognition, or internal distribution. Pieces like this carry a direct connection to the parks and the Cast Members who operated them, setting them apart from modern retail releases. While new pins often command attention due to promotion and novelty, long-term collector value has historically favored older, scarcer examples with documented institutional significance. For collectors focused on heritage rather than hype, these are the pins that tend to endure. Description: Disneyland opened in 1955 and forever altered the landscape of themed entertainment. Seventy years later, the 70th Anniversary marked a generational milestone in the park's history. To commemorate the occasion, Club 33 released a limited series of anniversary-exclusive pieces available only to members. These were never offered for public retail sale. This oversized presentation pin was produced specifically for the Disneyland 70th Anniversary and limited to just 300 pieces worldwide. Unlike the companion Club 33 70th Mickey pin, which was issued in an edition of 600, this example represents one of the lowest-edition anniversary releases for the event. Design & Construction This is a jumbo-format presentation piece measuring approximately 4 " tall by 4" wide. Design elements include: Multi-layered sculpted metal framework Deep enamel fill in pink, violet, blue, and gold tones Iridescent gradient "33" centerpiece Ornamental filigree inspired by New Orleans Square ironwork Polished gold-tone finish Triple post backing for structural stability The scale and dimensional depth move this piece firmly into display-category territory. It was designed for presentation, not casual wear. Reverse Details LIMITED EDITION 300 / EDITION LIMITÉE DE 300 Official Disney copyright Club 33 crest box stamp Mickey waffle pattern backing Made in China Triple post configuration All hallmarks consistent with authentic Club 33 production. Condition Pin remains housed in its original Club Thirty-Three branded presentation box. No visible enamel loss, chipping, or metal wear observed. Box shows light storage handling consistent with careful ownership. Please review all photographs carefully as they form part of the description. Rarity, Edition Significance & Market Scarcity Limited to 300 pieces worldwide Club 33 exclusive distribution Disneyland 70th Anniversary issue Jumbo 4 " presentation format At the time of listing, no active examples are available on eBay. While I have additional piece of the Mickey companion pin, this is the ONLY example of this pin I have to offer. The most recent publicly recorded sale occurred 9/1/25 at $180. That transaction represented the only visible secondary market sale within the past year and occurred prior to the current anniversary-driven demand cycle. For comparison, the companion Club 33 70th Anniversary Mickey pin, limited to 600 pieces, has been selling in recent days in the $750 range despite having double the edition size. This example is: Half the production quantity Larger in physical scale Architecturally ornate rather than character-driven Currently absent from the open market When a Club 33 anniversary piece reaches zero available supply, pricing is no longer dictated by frequency of sales but by replacement difficulty. Club 33 milestone anniversary pieces are not replenished once distribution concludes. When secondary market availability contracts to zero, the next opportunity is entirely dependent on whether a current owner elects to part with theirs. Serious collectors understand that scarcity in this tier is not measured in days, but in windows. Display & Collectibility This is not a standard trading pin. It is a centerpiece. The 4 " scale and layered construction make it ideally suited for framed shadowbox presentation alongside other Club 33 or milestone anniversary releases. Oversized Club 33 editions historically trade infrequently and tend to settle into established collections for extended periods. Pricing Listed at $899.99 OBO in alignment with current Club 33 70th Anniversary market momentum and complete absence of active supply. Reasonable offers will be considered.
