I've reused pins on 9 speed chains, and haven't been able to prove any ill effects of doing so. I try to mark the reused pin for later inspection, and generally don't see specific problems associated with it.

11 speed chains are quite different beasts, and I wouldn't recommend it. One can physically see the damage to the pins as they are pushed out.
