First, will the inaugural Wish merch only be available the first sailing or for the first year?

Second, I keep a Disney gift card in my Apple Wallet. At WDW they were able to scan it for purchases. Does anyone know if they can do the same on the wish? I’m trying to decide if I should move the $ to a physical card instead.
 
I want to hit the gift shops when they first open bc they sell out of so many things. On my only other cruise, on the Dream, they were not running all shows so we skipped the one on day 1 to watch it on another night. If I want to shop right at opening, will I need to miss the early show to do so (we have late dinner)?

2nd question. Last time they had sets of ornaments that had 4 or 5 small ornaments in them. They made perfect souvenir gifts for my coworkers back home. Does anyone know if they still have sets like that or if they are available on the Wish?
 
I was so disappointed by shopping on the Wish. My feeling was that way too much space was dedicated to the high-end shopping (watches, bags, etc.) and there was only one small store for "real" stuff.

Unfortunately every cruise ship is like this. I normally am on Celebrity, they have an entire shopping level that is dedicated to premium and luxury brands. Much of it more expensive compared to their regular shops on Madison Avenue and the like. And on top of that the rather snotty sales people. Was wearing a particular brand of watch while looking at that brand and was steered away from it to something 'more in my price range'. (wearing Breitling steered towards Omega).

I agree, but on the other Disney ships, there is much more real estate dedicated to stuff I might actually splurge for. I went into our Wish cruise planning to buy a souvenir (which I usually don't), but I couldn't even find something I would buy regardless of the price. There were only a few items and they sold out immediately. On any other DCL ship (I've been on all of them), I had a list of things I wanted or would want next time. It was really disappointing.
Sorry to hear of your watch experience. Sounds like an opportunity for a "Pretty Woman" moment...big mistake, big!

Well that is disappointing. I would have assumed a Disney ship would have the typical Mickey's Mainsail style shop. I mean you can buy DCL merch at the parks now, and the airport and the depots.
 
I felt like it was all the same stuff as other ships personally. Mickey mainsails is long and skinny but had similar amount of variety. The only things that sold out fast was the Christmas stuff but I still got a pin on the last day.

Plus the little shop with pool and swim stuff was larger than the others and nice.
