Getting DVC member discount on MagicBand before trip?

[noisykid]

Since in their infinite wisdom, Disney has decided they need that extra $10 from pre-sale MagicBands to keep the parks open and feed the executives, I'm looking for deals. Is there any way to use my DVC member discount on a new MagicBand+ before my upcoming April trip, or is the only way in-person at an on-site (or Disney Springs) store? We don't live anywhere near a Disney property or a Disney store. I wanted to use it as part of a surprise for my daughter. I'm aware I can buy one on eBay, etc.

I just looked and you can get 20% off certain styles of MagicBand on ShopDisney right now. Maybe the best option for a surprise?

Not sure about exactly what you're looking for, but i'd be very hesitant to buy a MB on eBay. You're trusting that the MB hasn't been linked, which would make it useless for you to use, as they're not transferable.

Are you referring to the 20% off $100 code of "PRIVATE" ?

Yes that's it. I think there's also free shipping on orders over $85 if you can use both codes.

Ugh I just tried it and it won’t work on magic bands

Although they aren't Discounted, remember that you can purchase magic bands thru the MDE App for upcoming trips, IF they are listed on the reservations. These should have a custom name on the back, and thet do have some selections not showing on the DisneyStore site.
