My CBC pin broke off. It didn't just fall off - the metal spike broke clear away. I'm not sure how that happened. I've had it for a long time now (since my second year of collegeand it's ALWAYS been on my bags, so it was only a matter of time, but... :(

I'm really close to CBC HQ, so I can buy a new one IF they still sell it. I can't find it in the online store. This is a cute shirt, though.

If CBC HQ doesn't have one, let me know and I'll check the Ottawa store...it's about two blocks from here and I walk by at least once a day. :)

Not the pin! I think I was there when you brought it too. :(

Thanks! I'm going to swing on by probably tomorrow around lunch time to check. I think it might be in stock at the store and not online because it's a touristy kind of impulse buy, you know?

You know, I hate that! Pins man. I lost my Land Commander, Logistics and Private chevron that fell off my backpacks over time. Now I don't put pins on my bag. I can't replace those without rejoining the army.

I hope yours is easily replaced.

Yeah, that's the one. I bought it a month or so after dad passed away, when the group of us went to Toronto together and visited Lisa.

I find it's the lapel style pins that fall off. Right now, I have a some subway tile pins (these things (http://www.canadiandesignresource.ca/officialgallery/?p=463)), a pin from a grad card, a random saving energy promo pin and my hunter pin on my bag, but they're all the button/badge style and stay on better. I took my Fullmetal Alchemist lapel pins off because they're looong out of print and hard to find replacements because they're off relatively minor characters.

I'm hoping that I can find a new CBC pin. It was from a time when I intended to collect pins from all of the major Canadian media outlets, but I never got around to it.
