Yes thank you, and for this reason I think DSSH is probably most comparable. PTDs are annoying in their surprise release, never know when they will flip and really only easily accessible to people who live above the Ice Cream shop. The other DSSH releases, by lottery, etc are insane. Although the Windows of Magic (I.e. Ariel and what I imagine Sorcrer mickey and Jack Skellington) are equally intimidating; the perfect description.One thing I'd probably add about the DLP LE pins is that for the most part, they're hard to get hold of at release. They aren't on general sale so you can't just go buy them in the stores on release day. We had to jump through the hoops that the electronic app Lineberty create for us:
Two days before release day, a number of virtual tickets are released giving you a specific time to go to the shop to make your purchase where you're allowed to purchase two of each LE pin on release.
One day before the release day, a further amount of tickets are released which they call "last chance" where you may be able to buy a pin if there are any left but it's all done in number order. Then for the most part, no ticket, no pin. It makes it really difficult for anyone not living close to Paris as you can't really plan a trip (other than going for a fun old time of course).
I guess this can make some traders value the Paris LE pins more than any other LE pin potentially.
Personally I was at the Eleonore Bridge release at the weekend and it was chaotic, intimidating and not a pleasant experience at all.
Anyway - hope that adds a little other thought into the discussion

I guess my question is, offering DSSH pins for DLP pins are probably the most appropriate? Maybe windows of magic? Would LE Pins from DLR be okay to offer? I’m just trying to avoid offending anyone when it’s just I really don’t know.

Eleonore Bridge's pin releases are ALWAYS kind of chaotique and scary. (Sorry @Stewbaws i didn't had the courage to come but i think you discovered why. I hope you managed to get a set).
The releases that are harder to get these days are the Stitch "Today I feel" pin and "Les étoiles de Disneyland". I don't know how i can compare with US releases but depending on quality and release size, i'll be more or less peaky on DLP pins. I'm not trading enough with US users to compare, most of my traders are chinese. I'd love to trade more with US, you have so much Star Wars pin.
Edit> Sorry for the silly question but, what is a "RAK"?
RAK is OE I believe - pins available on the rack to buy all day, every day
RAK are rack pins basically open edition pins.Eleonore Bridge's pin releases are ALWAYS kind of chaotique and scary. (Sorry @Stewbaws i didn't had the courage to come but i think you discovered why. I hope you managed to get a set).

Sometimes people also use RAK for "Random Act of Kindness", but in this case I agree with @Stewbaws that it means "Rack" or OE pins
OE for OE trading was easy (and a lot of fun, to boot). But I had a hard time figuring out the LE stuff, except that everyone wanted WDI pins. I found I was surprised by some of the stuff that was passed up in my book, just in that I had thought it would go over well.
I had hard time understanding that my LE 700 should be traded with american LE2000+ . Because those size in France are not limited at all. But in the end, this is the kind of trade that make me get the pin i want more. I almost abandonned any chance to trade WDI/DSSH pin and sometime, i just buy some or look at them at event without even trying to ask for trade (maybe i shouldn't).
