Question about collectible Disney shares

[Shir Kahn]

Hi, I've been looking at those shares that you can get off the Disney store website and it says that they won't ship them internationally. I really want to give one to my wife, but we live in Canada. We're heading down to WDW in March and I was wondering if anyone knows if they would ship to the resort?

I was under the impression Disney no longer did paper shares of their stock, even as collectibles.

What they are selling is not a stock certificate and is not negotiable. It is just a certificate that says that you own Disney stock.

OK, I found what you are talking about on their website. I was referring to the actual Disney Stock Certificate seen here:

that they stopped selling last year

This just jogged my memory. I have a set of these tucked away somewhere for my daughters. A hunting we will go.

Yes, I was apparently the 2nd to last person to be able to purchase shares right before they stopped issuing them with the certificate shown above. Found that out while on the phone with my broker as I got my purchase registered right before the close of business on the last day of sales. Didn't receive the certificate until almost two months later, but it was worth the wait.
