8. My trade was accepted! Now what?

   Both trading parties send their pins through Pin & Pop's Trade Protection. Not only does this provide an extra layer of security and privacy for our members, but Pin & Pop's Trade Protection also guarantees that both pins are received and verified as authentic before they're sent on to their new owners.

9. How do I use Pin & Pop's Trade Protection?

   Mail your pins as soon as you receive your acceptance email.
