Too Good To Be True ??? - Unlimited Fastpass

[jillrobinson]

On Ebay at the moment 5 Rare Lifetime Fastpasses.

I'm not going to bid because I'm such a wuss I wouldn't have the nerve to use them. As tempting as they might be unless the seller can provide me with the where's why's and how's he came by them, I'll leave well alone.
I wonder if the seller would answer if I asked where they got them from and why ?
All his previous listings are Private and for a "specialist item" and lots of them. - They're barbecue grills, checked him out through Goofbay.

I'm with you on this one. Imagine if a CM caught you with something you should not have

 

[marcus.ka]

I doubt that they are for real.
I never heared that they exist.

If they are for real and are working you could use them without showing them to a CM because he writes in the offer that you can also insert them in the FP machines and get additional tickets.
Sounds to good to be true.

WOW!!! But there must be a catch... It's jout too good to be true...

We weren't bothered with the fastpasses, we've only used them a couple of times when it was really busy in the park. Wonder if he's going to sell them and how much for...

I'd prefer using the normal FP or queueing than being caught and feel uncomfortable.

There have been at least 5 other sellers with the same thing - they all had photos of them. They look like pieces of card the same size as a hopper ticket and they are going for about £22 or more for 4 or 5 tickets. I've seen photos of both sides and there was no expiry date. Someone was selling them with semi-used hopper tickets so is it possible they were being given out for some reason? they all said they were complimentary. Nobody is saying they are like VIP Fastpasses though - you still have to put them in the machine so it just gives you an extra go (if it works).

Here's another selling at the moment:

i think i was given one of these a couple of years ago when my park ticket wouldn't work in the fastpass machines. I was given it at city hall and i have no idea if it still works or not

 

[angelamc]

I can vouch that these will definitely work, I bought them from the same seller, seriouslyvintage sales, and they have worked now on two seperate trips.

they worked just like the way you normally get a fast pass
I would say this is a bargain its only 7.50 at the moment and ending soon

Am I missing something here?

If it works just like normal FP in that you have to put it into the machine to get the time slot theres no point is there as you will only get one extra ticket so if you wanted to go again you could only ride alone. I assume if its like normal FP you can only hold for one ride at a time until time window opens.

 

[angelamc]

I bought 9 from this seller, we used them to go around and collect all the fastpasses for the different rides, then went back round them all again, meant we had very little queuing on the first trip, on our second trip, because there was 6 of us, we used them to get double fastpasses and just went on the ride twice

 

[A Small World]

Thanks

i have just bought some and it works out at £1.80 a day for me and dh
so looking at it that way i though i was worth a go !!!

i will report back when i have used them !!!!

 

[jillrobinson]

So unlike current FPs, am I right in thinking you can get as many FPs as you want from 1 ticket for different attractions but still no more than 1 FP per attraction at a time and there is no expiry date ?

and I assume this goes into the FP machine rather than your passport not as well as?

Interesting, thanks for the information.

I keep our old tickets and use them, I have to admit they came in very useful last year as both weekends we went were extremely busy, it did mean we could hold 2 FPs in a row for the same attraction. I timed most of the waiting times with FPs and there was no way of going through the same attraction more than twice in the 1/2 hr FP window.

 

[angelamc]

I bought mine for £5 each, I think they're great value if your going to put them to use. We used them dozens of times. Because we are going back over the May bank holiday, I think they will be necessary.

I keep our old tickets and use them, :

Ive got a few old tickets hanging about do these work in the fast pass machines would it be worth taking them? ,I dont want to get caught doing something dogey

I was thinking exactly the same thing, i have tickets from 2002 and from feb this year. Will both of these work????

 

[angelamc]

I never thought of doing of that, I always assumed they expired

 

[Janetlow]

Just caught ono this thread. would old annual passes work in the fast pass machines

 

[jillrobinson]

I wouldn't say it's any dodgier than buying these Unlimited FP's on Ebay, but we do what we feel comfortable with. I would merely have got my tickets muddled, silly me I keep all 15 of my old tickets in my purse.
Theoretically, I would get an FP with a current ticket and 1 with an older one, say 2004 , there is no point in getting any more than that because you really can't get through the FP line in less than 15mins and it would just be wasteful IMHO.
Or of course you could use your current ticket to get an FP on Buzz and the other ticket to get an FP for BTM, incidently these are the only 2 rides we ever use FP for.
We don't do SM, have never needed one on Indiana Jones or Star Tours and usually do Peter Pan early. That bit's me trying to ease a guilty conscience

 

[angelamc]

oh dear I'm feeling guilty now

 

[sam_rogers]

lol you are merely making your holiday more enjoyable by going on more rides
