Wondering is there any benefit to buying tix from undercover tourist other than piece of mind through disney vs saving money with UT? It seems like too good to be true and why not save the money but not sure. TIA

Not sure why "too good to be true?" UT has been in business a long time.
I've ordered from them for years. I like the savings, never had a problem.
 
The benefit is of course the cost savings. And while small in the overall picture they do save you money on tickets packages of 3 days or greater. UT is 100% reliable. They are working directly with Disney. Nothing shady about it. One of the main reason why you wouldn't buy from UT and instead directly from Disney would be the case of discounted packages that Disney may offer such as free dinning.
 

I have ordered tickets and booked Disney rooms from UT 3 times in the past. We live in Canada and the tickets have been shipped to us each time, no problem. You then link them to your MDE account and you're ready to go. Most of the time they are cheaper and/or add an extra free day on i.e 5 days for the price of 4.
The rooms (value for us) have always been significantly cheaper also, I would say around $20/night or so less.
 
I've used UT many times and they have always been great to deal with. I just bought some WDW tickets from them about a week ago.

We used UT in the past and had some savings on the tickets. This trip, I don't know why but I went right through Disney to book our hotel and tickets. Well wouldn't you know 3 months later we were able to upgrade to free dining because it fell on our dates and we got our tickets direct.

I trust UT, but as Brett said, any discount packages that pop up even after booking can only be claimed if you went direct through Disney.
 
I never do dining plans or packages or things of that nature so UT is always my best money saving option. I think last time I saved about $300.
 
I always buy through UT. When you do all of the math the savings aren’t huge, usually around 5%. Maybe I’ve missed out on better deals but even a small discount is worthwhile as there really is no downside.
 
Just FYI there is also Last minute travel Club which is usually a bit cheaper than UT.
 
UT is a legit site. I've purchased from them before and saved a decent amount.

Do you know if I purchase tickets from LMTC am I able to change the start date? They quoted me a great price on a park hopper ticket but I don’t want to wait till 30 days out to receive it. My thought is to purchase with a January start date and when I get the voucher, go in to MDE and change the start date.

Im not sure since i purchase for DL and have not idea how MDE works. I do know the tickets we just purchased are for this weekend and they expire 1/2021. I purchased on the 8th and received a voucher that day and then the e tickets the next morning which you take right to the gate. there is a thread on the Disneyland board about LMTC and there is a rep on there that may be able to answer you question.
