Reliability of Maple Leaf tickets?

[uberman6191]

Has anyone had experience with Maple Leaf tickets? Will it be safe with MDE?

thanks

I used them for universal tickets a few years back and they were perfect. I've never heard a negative thing about them.

Have you checked undercovertourist, though? UCT is generally the cheapest there is and quite reliable and in the know.

I have read no negatives for MLT in the many mentions of them on this board over the years.

Thier tickets wil link to MDE.

Would you mind sharing the type of ticket you are looking for and what ML price you have? I used to use ML in the past, but in the last few years (most recently last week when I checked) they have not been competitive. I'm curious which tickets they are selling cheaper than OTC, UCT, and Disney direct via discounted gift cards. Thanks!

(off mobile, on computer now) Wow, how can you find anything? Just checked their site by safari and firefox and it's a mess! Yikes! They must be under construction.

I second that. I just tried to checked them out too.

You're right - their sight is a mess right now. The price I'm looking at is for a 10 day Park Hopper with Water Park (14 day expiration). I have a price of $437.58 but can't confirm that right now because of their sight.

Try AAA if you are a member. Their prices are even lower by a dollar or two than either of the ticket sites mentioned.

I've used Maple Leaf tickets in the past. I have 8 to buy this trip and have bought 1 from UCT. I got nervous with recent reports, but had no issues. In fact, I got it in the mail the same day that I got the email it was about to be shipped.

I don't know which one I'll buy the others from . UCT with the mousesavers discount was $2 less than MLT. Both are less expensive than through Disney.

sometimes maple leaf tickets throws you a tiny discount if you are subscribed to the allears newsletter. i've always had good experiences with them.

The ML site is up and running this morning. I did a quick check for your particular ticket and found the following as of the time of this post. If there was a special link for more favorable ML pricing, I did not find it. I'm wondering if ML was updating their prices yesterday which is the reason the site was down. All of these prices are higher than my results within the last two weeks and a little higher than the price you quoted above. The exception is he OTC price which is quite a bit lower than the others (I had to check it twice because of the difference):

ML - $442 plus $7 shipping per order if you don't personally pick them up
UCT - $441.03
OTC - $429 via touring plans link

If you live near a grocery store that does the fuel perks for buying certain gift cards you could be eligible for bigger savings. Lately, I've been buying direct from Disney because of this as I do live near one of the grocery stores that does this; my discount comes to 12% off their prices which always beats the discount sellers when I'm "ticket shopping", even after paying the tax that isn't included in the quoted Diseny prices.

What's OTC and do you have personal experience with them?

I logged on to my Touring Plans subscription and see it probably stands for: The Official Ticket Center.

10 DAY base, no hopper, expires
MLT - 365.50
OTC - 365.50 (via TP)
UTC - 365.42

(Same prices as last week)

So it appears they're still neck and neck.

Yea, the ticket I'm pricing is "neck and neck" also, with the exception of ML who doesn't even sell it (8 day base) for some reason. These prices are $4 more than when I checked within the last two weks. That's why I was so suprised to see the OP's ticket so much cheaper at OTC right now.

What grocery stores are you referring to?

Not that it's a big deal, but for what it's worth, my links from TP show OTC at $364.50 and UTC at $364.42 for your ticket, both with free shipping as opposed to ML.

The one I use for the discount is Giant Eagle. I believe that I've seen Kroeger mentioned on the boards as another one. I will wait to buy the cards wen they offer .40 off per gallon of gas (up to 30 gallons) per $100 spent. If I spend $1,000, this will give me $120 worth of free gas, which is a 12% discount off the tickets. Whichever credit card you use will give you an additional discount (cash back or points).

Weird. I'm logged on and see the 365.50 not 364.50. I used the MS referral and it's slightly less.

FYI: I also didn't get free shipping when i purchased UT last month. It wasn't much but it was about $8 if memory serves. Standard shipping. I didn't pay for any upgraded or expedited shipping.
