Does anyone know where to find pin lots for cheap? I have checked ebay and the pin homepage and the lots are for either 4 pins or 100. I am looking for 25-30 pins to trade when I go down but I dont want to spend 7 bucks for one pin. The cheap lots on ebay are for the pins from Spain, and I dont want those.

Sedesma pins (from spain) are actually licensed by Disney and therefore tradable with CM's. I've done it myself.
However, if you're looking for pins just for trading fodder, your best bet is a HECK of a lot of patience with ebay. I've lucked out sometimes searching for pins and finding a bunch by one seller for a buck or two each right before they end. Get then all from a same seller and you ususally get combined shipping. It's not easy to do though and can be very frustrating.
Another option is to do something like hit the Dizpins boards and post in the for sale board. A lot of times people are willing to sell off trade-legal pins (usually ones that aren't really worth much like open editions and such, but who cares, you're going to trade 'em anyway) for $3 or $4 a pin. Again though, depends on who's got what and who's trying to get rid of what. If you're not picky as to what it is (so long as it's trade legal), then that's how you get better deals.
Trust me though, there are thousands of people trying to basically do the same thing you are, so unfortunately, it's not easy to do.
