I had a friend who recently made a similar offer and he has actually purchased containers of pins over the years.
I dont know this fellow, but i do know there is a large wholesaler in that specific area.
Cant hurt to make a wish list, just hand over the dollars when u see the pin in australia, if its up to scratch.....or just buy em from Mark C or someone we all know n trust....

needs more looking into..anyone know this fellow ?
