So I have a LE 300 pin that I would like to trade, but surprisingly, I want to trade it for some Hidden Mickey pins. Is it ok to ask for more than one HM since the pin I am trading is LE 300? If so how many HMs is a fair trade for it?
 
the LE 300 is Pin 85656: DSF - Kite Series - Stitch or Pin 85434: DSF - Camera - Stitch
 
Depends on which Hidden Mickeys you are after!! Some traders will value them individually as being worth an LE300 purely down to their current demand - in my opinion I'd agree with the above 3 - 4. Remember in the long run though that your LE300 pin will not vary much in trades/wants ratio BUT the Hidden Mickeys will lose their popularity, become more available & possibly become scrapped making them no so much desirable - just my thoughts!
 
The Hidden Mickeys I am looking to trade for is the 5 "Cute Yeti" ones. I just want them for my personal collection, not to trade or anything.

Have you looked at earthbounds website?? He's selling the 2011 cute yeti pins on there, i think there £2.50 each, might be worth a look?? save your LE pin then? ;-)

I do show 4 of the 5 in stock but I also have a spare Skiing pin from a second set if you do wish to purchase the set of 5
 
I think it's alright got ask, what's it gonna hurt? The other way around however may get someone a little annoyed. (ie. you trade 1 HM for their LE300.) I think some of the older hidden mickey's may be worth a newer LE300. The license plate series perhaps, wanted posters, or a hard to find Tink Topiary perhaps. Maybe one of the lunchbox/school bus pins. Those types are much rarer than others. In a few years I bet the Casey Jr. train locomotice will be worth a LE in trade. It's up to you and the trader to work it out.

I have been asked a lot lately for my DLR completer pins. I've been asking for 2 regular WDW hidden mickey's in return and most people are more than happy to oblige. A few get cranky about it and say a completer is not worth 2 HM's. I disagree. A completer takes a $30 purchase and then costs $3. I've also had a few folks just as excited to trade me 2 WDW chasers for one DLR completer. If they are happy and I am happy then who cares what anyone else thinks about it. I don't think I'm taking advantage of anyone nearly as bad as those sharks out there.
 
It depends on the individual trader :-) I've been selling my 2011 HM (DLR) pins and completers for $4-6 each. I think a completer is worth at least 2 HMs :)
 
I have 5 of the 7 and will take just just traders for them. Pm me if interested. 2 of those are the completers

Are there any from DLR in the yeti series? Sorry if that is a stupid question. I just thought those came from WDW. :-)
 
Sorry, I got confused. We started talking about HMs, then completers, so I thought the conversation was at the completer stage of HM pins.
 
So they are only WDW? If so, I have some too. They are not on my traders, but I have some. If interested, just ask via pm or email, and I'll let you know which ones I have.
 
Thank you everyone for the advice and help! It's really nice that you all are trying to help instead of leaving me to figure it out myself or trying to rip me off!
