Look out, Pin Traders

I knew of someone who was making fakes 8 years ago so I think the answer to a) is "it didn't take long at all."

Can't answer for B.

I had heard it was happening, but I have no idea how to tell the real ones from the fake. I just get most of mine (the very few I do buy) from Disney itself so I know they are real.

You could trade a fake one with a CM. Anyone who consequently trades with that CM has the possibility of getting a fake.

Wait, are you suggesting that I will trade a fake pin to a CM?

I don't even bother with the trading at all. I hope that the fake ones don't make it onto the Disney racks.
