Apparently Birdman does not trade pins, so he did not understand my trade request. Let me explain:
Disney pins can be purchased for as little as $1 each on some boards. Disney itself gives free gift pins with purchases. Regular new pins from Disney can start at $4, and sometimes are sold by Disney for $1 per pin on their closeouts. Only very rare and limited edition are in the $8.95 range and up. I don't know what regular pins he is talking about for $25 each.
I am also asking for "trader" pins. These are not the valuable pins that he seems to be equating with $25. They can be anything that someone doesn't even want anymore, but is too inexpensive to bother selling and regular pin collectors will not trade for.
