We just returned from a short trip to Disney for Flower and Garden. It was amazing! We had so much fun! I was really disappointed, though, that the F&G Magic Bands were already sold out?! Unbelievable. We are AP and my DD really wanted the passholder one with Figment. I liked the one with Minnie, but they told me that they had been sold out of of both for a week. That would mean these were only available for about 10 days! Really disappointing. We live across the country so taking a trip just to buy a MB is out of the question for us even if they did get more in stock. Do they usually get more? They were also sold out of the passholder t-shirts. I’d hoped to buy one of those as a gift for someone. Overall we had a great time, I’m just disappointed that we weren’t able to buy the MBs.
 
They won’t get any more of the magic bands. They sell a certain number that’s printed on the magic bands themselves. Unfortunately we had this issue last year with the Halloween mb. We ended up buying it on eBay before our trip
 
I figured this was the case. Really disappointing. F&G goes on for several more weeks, and from what I was told, these sold out within the first 10 days. We were able to get the Halloween MBs last year, but our trip was in September. Still, though, it was September, and MNSSHP had been going on for several weeks already; those at least didn’t sell out within 10 days. I wish Disney had some way to prevent people from buying hordes of the special MBs to sell on eBay. I’m considering buying the F&G one for my DD’s birthday just because she was so sad she missed out on it. I hate that I have to do that, though.
 
I am shocked they lasted 10 days.
They never last long. It's a bummer and they have cracked down on people buying multiples of them.
There was a report late last year, I think it was, on them revoking the AP of people reselling items. Or maybe it was all talk, no action?
This I think was a case of their making too few. These collectable MB haven't been selling well till now so they may have just underestimated

this is sad, the festival goes on till early June and that's just crazy you can't get merch till at least halfway thru
