Another Pin Collecting Question

I had bought some Winnie the Pooh pins at flea market years ago for trading. They are gold with a "clasp type" pin back. At the time I was told on the board (after buying) they were not tradeable as they must have the "tie tack" type back.

I just found an old Electric Light Parade Pin I have on the original 2000 card. It has the "clasp type back"

So my question is, does "pin back type" matter or as long as it is marked copyright Disney is it ok?

Has anyone actually done a trade like this successfully
 
I would say that if you were to take this to a Disney park to trade with a CM, probably not. But if you took it to trade with a guest/pin collector, you might be able to trade it. Depends on if there is anyone who would like your pin and be willing to trade a typical Disney pin for it.

Blessings,
Winnie
 
The pooh pins you are talking about can not be traded with CMs because they are considered jewlery, not trading pins.

The Electric Parade pin you are talking about can be traded, because it was released in the parks as a trading pin.
