I did hear back from her. She claims to be a "fellow pin trader" that gets her pins from Disneyland and other pin traders. She apologized for the one pin that I was able to identify as being a scrapper but insisted that I return the pins if I want a refund. (so she can sell them to the next dupe).
I have gone over many of the others and have notice upon close inspection things like a small dimple in the enamel or missing enamel in a small section.
I can't understand how Ebay and Disney let this go on. There are tons and tons of these pin lots all over the Internet. Selling these counterfeit pins is a crime. Once they mail them using USPS like mine came, I believe it elevates to a federal crime.
This whole pin trading mess has given me a massive headache and is about as far away from Magical as you can get.
