Any way to buy DW park tix & get credit?

[fourfoxesinpa]

Any merchants sell 10 day, no exp. hopper MMW tix?

Thanks for any tips.

Did you check Dwtickets?

[m 'n c]

DWTickets? I see 10 day tickets but I can't tell if they are expiring or not. They are hoppers so worse case you just have to upgrade them at the gates.

Have you checked out DWTickets?? They're the only place I know of on SR to get them.

Thanks Ladies! I knew someone would know. I'm off to check it out right now.

Be very careful of WDW tix on ebay. That is one category that has fraudulent listing every single day! Many people have their accounts hijacked and the perps use their ids to sell the tix. They are targeted because they are a popular high price tag item.

Yep I agree! You should always check the feedback of the seller, and IMO, they should have a good amount of it too (I wouldn't purchase such a high dollar item from a 'newer' seller) ;)

As I mentioned before, this a category where people's ids are being hijacked and used to fraudulently to sell tix. I personally know someone who was burned in this scenario. After I heard about it, I even spent a few hours a day for over a month reporting fraudulent auctions. You can't begin to believe how many there were!!!

This is one of those cases where you have to be VERY thorough in your investigation of the auction. See if the seller has been active on ebay recently or is this the first thing that they have done in a long time. Send the seller a note asking a question through ebay - NEVER send an email to an email address that is listed inside of the listing.

Personally, I would not risk something like this through ebay. You have no way of checking the validity of the tickets until you arrive at WDW. By then the thief is long gone with your money (and lots of it) and you are stuck paying hundreds of extra dollars to get into the parks. I'm not saying that there aren't legit tickets there but with that much money, I would stick to getting my tickets through a reputable authorized reseller not on ebay.

I agree..DWtickets is the way to go, for SR credit. and YES they do have 10 day No-Expiry tickets there.

Not to hijack this thread but did you all hear about someone on Ebay selling Fast Passes!! OMG, some people will buy anything on Ebay. :confused:

Yep, they sell expired fast passes, baby sway passes, used APs and even GACs :(

Sorry if I sounded kind of preachy in my earlier posts. I would just hate to see anyone get taken in that scam on ebay. I wouldn't have said anything except for the fact that it is rampant in that particular category! I'm actually surprised that ebay continues to let them be sold on there!

Yes I did...pathetic isn't it?

It is sad that people get so greedy they must do things like this. Ebay can be very safe IF you are an informed knowledgeable buyer. I have bought/sold for years and years and have never had a negative transaction. With that being said, I am very careful about who I buy from. ;)

I think for most things it can be a very good place to buy from. I have seen so many times where people think they are buying WDW tickets from someone reputable on ebay and then find out at disney the tickets are no good and the person had stolen someone elses account so it would look as though they were reputable. I would NEVER suggest to anyone to buy off of ebay for this type of ticket. The amount you can save is not worth the pain and aggravation of standing at the gate with tickets that are not any good. As a matter of fact I was just reading on Anita Answer from allears.net and she gave a person a good scolding about not buying them off of ebay. Good luck finding them!

[andrea2289]

Unfortunately that is what ruins it for honest sellers. There are a lot of very honest people that sell Disney passes on Ebay. I am not saying that you should, just that greed ruins it for everyone. Anytime I list a high-ticket item, I include my phone number so that a buyer can call me anytime. Seems like the whole identity theft thing is just getting out of control. Too bad there isn't a better system to protect the buyer, because Ebay is a wonderful venue to sell/buy things like this. :rolleyes:

[jnorth1007]

I agree. I think ebay is an awesome place to buy things. We used to buy football cards for Brandon all the time before kids came along. I would still buy collectibles on there at the drop of a hat because those types of things are owned by individuals and how else would they sell them? I really need to look in to buying gift cards like you do. With those at least you get them quickly and can find out quickly if they are any good and file a complaint quickly if you need to.

[andrea2289]

I do not recommend anyone just popping on Ebay for the first time and buying something. There is a lot to know and learn. I guess I just feel comfortable with it because I've been there so long but I need to remember many people haven't. I am very cautious and find myself not buying things all the time because I just don't feel comfortable with the seller for whatever reason. I have never bought Disney tickets, but I have bought the gift cards. They all have been under $50 except the last one I bought, but before I bid, I really checked the seller out! (although I still had a sigh of relief when I received them) ;)

I think Paypal Buyer Protection is great but I think you have to file a claim within 30 days.

Yeah, I don't think I'd ever buy DW tix on Ebay - too many nightmare stories.

Sometimes I just don't understand DH...I've been talking about getting our tix for a few weeks now since they will probably go up in price in August, as they do year after year. It must have gone in one ear and out the other because tonight I tell him about a couple online discount sellers, including DW Tickets, to which he replied, "well, did you check my employee discount?" Well, no I hadn't because you hadn't told me about it!!! :rolleyes:

So, long story short, he gets a really good discount since his company does work for Disney so we're all set now.

Thanks for the tips.

[andrea2289]

Wow that's great he gets a discount! Glad you worked it all out :clap:
