When purchasing Disneyland Tickets on eBay

I read a guide on here claiming that you would not be able to use someone's partially used tickets with days left on them. I have been to Disneyland about 6 or 7 times in the last year and I have yet to see a fingerprint scanner that matches the original user to the ticket. That person's guide was written in 2005 and it may be possible that times and procedures have changed at Disneyland. One of my close friends has a cousin and a grandmother who both work there so I rarely pay for tickets but there is nothing that requires a fingerprint to enter. Now, when you leave the park during the day to either hop to the California Adventure park or to go eat and then re-enter, they will stamp your hand with a semi-invisible yellow ink that shows up very well underneath black lights. If you don't have this then you are not permitted to re-enter the original park you started from or switch to the other park (thus eliminating people splitting the cost of a ticket and one person going for half a day and then handing the ticket over and letting the other person go).

There are however a few guidelines to remember when trying to score a discount on cheap Disneyland tickets. I know a little bit more than the average person about these kinds because my mom is a travel agent and receives a discount on her tickets, but she has to show identification at the gate in order for her ticket to be valid. It would be wise to ask to SEE THE BACK of the ticket to see if it states there is a special discount the original ticket owner received because it may or may not present a problem at the gate. Also as with every auction, having credible feedback is definitely something that helps eliminate and gray area on the amount of time left on each ticket. One thing that some people don't realize is that while you are down in Anaheim you can find tons of partially used tickets on Craigslist, and I suppose eBay's copycat version, Kijiji. If you do decide to buy partially used tickets with an expiration date on them (most expire 2 weeks after first use) then just remember to take a look at the the seller's method of shipping (hopefully Priority, but 1st Class is usually pretty reliable), and the seller's Detailed Star Feedback to see if they have a history of shipping things late.

IF YOU FIND THIS GUIDE HELPFUL, PLEASE REMEMBER TO CLICK THE YES BUTTON

Good luck and have a wonderful time at Disneyland, don't forget your Mickey ears!
