Undercover Tourist tickets more expensive than Disney?

[sfeisen]

What am I missing? A single day ticket to Magic Kingdom on Disney for an adult is $105.
A single day Magic Your Way ticket to MK on Undercover Tourist for an adult is $115.95?

There are no discounted single-day tickets available that I know of. Discounts are typically seen on multiday tickets.

THIS! Disneys prices don't reflect the taxes or shipping charges. There's your extra cost right there. UT doesn't charge extra for regular shipping, either.

Actually if you go and look, on disney the prices are:
105.00
Tax $6.83
Total $111.83 USD


vs 115.95 on UCT for a nonhopper single-day to MK.


So there's something weird happening.

WDW's site now shows the tax right there over to the right, even before you put it in your cart. They have changed the way they show it now, so if you're seeing the base price you're very likely seeing the tax and total at the same time.

It says right on UT's website that single day tickets are more expensive than Disney's gate price.

Yes.
IF the resellers/discounters sell one-day and two-day tickets,
they will be at a price higher than buying those same tickets from Disney.

It doesn't make much sense that the resellers/discounters even stock one-day and two-day tickets, since those are the tickets on which Disney does not offer wholesale prices.

The resellers that offer 1- and 2-day tickets do it as a convenience for people who are buying other tickets and just need, say, one 1-day ticket for their friend who's stopping by for a day or something.
