locking pin backs?

Hi! I want to buy a bunch of the locking pin backs ... I looked on ebay and found several different kinds, including the 'official' disney ones (which are much more expensive). Does anyone know if any locking back can be used? Thanks!

Any backs can be used but many traders don't like the generic locking style. Personally I use the Disney locking backs on my "keeper" pins and the plastic Mickey backs on my traders. I personally don't like the other style of locking backs at all. However, that does not stop me from trading, with other traders it might.

thanks for the quick reply! These are for my kids' keeper pins, so I don't have to worry about trading. Thank you!

If they are for keepers I highly recommend Disney's backs.....I have lost pins with the other style of locking backs.
