Ebay Ticket Experience

[a1tinkfans]

Did you see the article a few weeks ago about Disney tickets being purchased by thieves using stolen CCs? They then sold the passes for less than the gate price to unsuspecting buyers on Craigslist and eBay.

I'm glad it all worked out for you, OP. But I think that buying passes from any one other than an authorized Disney ticket agent is a crapshoot. You got lucky.

DOUBLE!

I would have to wonder where/how the seller bought these tickets. How was *he* able to buy tickets at such a reduced price legally? If they are picked up at the gate, that means a credit card was used for purchase- this is how all will-call ticket transactions at Disney guest relations are handled- a person enters a cc online to purchase the requested tickets and they can either be mailed or picked up via a confirmation number. A ticket sent in the mail CAN be replaced with receipt. Although I certainly don't know what happened in the case of this Ebay seller, it sounds highly likely that it could've been a stolen cc used for the tickets, purchased at full-price at someone else's expense. I doubt the seller would've paid full price and then sold the tickets at a discount. This is not a wholesaler transaction- the tickets were picked up at a DISNEY guest relations window, meaning they were purchased directly through Disney. Perhaps the OP made out okay but someone else was likely scammed. I don't mean to fault the OP as I doubt anyone would knowingly participate in such a deal- the OP was just trying to get a good deal on tickets and isn't responsible for a shady Ebay seller anyway. ---Kathy
