Has anyone bought theme park tickets from EBay?

Question

was browsing on EBAY and noticed ppl were selling theme park tickets .............can u trust those ppl? or ebay for that fact.

Answer 1

Check to seller's feedback and see if it is 99% or better. Then go to their feedback comments and click the auction numbers to see what they have been selling. If the person has sold a lot of theme park tickets and all the people left good feedback; then you can probably get a good deal.

Notice the number of feedback comments the seller has (I like to see at least 100) If the seller has any negatives or neutrals for selling; then do not buy.

This is just and example look to the right for feedback and seller info

Answer 2

I wouldn't trust that. I am not saying the people are trying to cheat you, however some people might purchase a 7 day ticket, use only 4 days and think they can sell the remainder of their ticket. Unless they were purchased with the "No Expiration" option, these unused days would expire 7 or 14 days after the first use. (I am not exactly sure how many days, but the tickets DO expire). These people may or may not be aware of that.

I would only purchase from a positively reputable site, such as DisneyWorld (or whatever theme park you'd like to go to) or from AAA (auto club). At least you can rest assured that they are not ripping you off.

Answer 3

This is a tough call. There are a few companies who work in Central Florida and offer their tickets for in-person pick-up only.

You can get discounted tickets, safely, by purchasing from AAA or your local Disney Store. If you are interested in buying the tickets from someone on ebay, ask them if they will refund if for any reason, the ticket do not work at the gate. If they won't refund, odds are, they aren't on the level.

Answer 4

I have gotten tickets at ebay, but you have to be careful with the sellers, look for power sellers, don't get them from anyone out of the country that tells you to use Money Gram or Western Union. Only use Pay Pal. Good luck. If not go to www.ticketmomma.com great people, tickets are real and lower prices

Answer 5

It's not Ebay that I wouldn't trust, but it is the people. The ONLY place you can purchase a 1 day ticket that is not a fake is from the Disney, anyone else selling them are selling you a scam. If you are looking for a discounted ticket, you can get a package deal from your travel agent or from the Disney web site.

Answer 6

I did it once and will never do it again, those tickets were used and I had to go back home without my money. I tried to contact the guy I bought the tickets from but never heard from him after that.
I will go to a site specialized in tickets. Official ticket center.com, tickets.allguest.com, or other specialized website.They have great discount going on all year long.

Answer 7

I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole! If you like gambling then try Vegas. It's a gamble on e bay. I bought merchandise from 99% rated sellers and got burned twice!! Never will I buy from them again.Don't take a chance!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

most people on eBay you can trust...get the package insured and get a delivery confirmation number so you can track it. don't pay cash or check, pay by credit card so it can be reported to them and make sure you pay through paypal. i had problems and paypal took care of it and i got my money back from "the paypal guarantee".
