Here’s the sad part, because haunted mansion anniversary items are just exclusive to the parks, the price on sites like eBay and such have doubled the price. Making people like me who really want one , and can’t get to the park, out of luck! Shame on you Disney!!!
Glenn, the merchandise is exclusive to the park to promote park attendance, which also promotes the hotels, restaurants, etc. It is all about marketing, so yes, unfortunately someone not willing to visit the parks is out of luck. I am sure Disney probably looks at the shame more on you for being a “fan” yet refusing to take part in the 50th.
You know what Glenn is absolutely right in this sense. For years I lived in Orlando but now having to relocate I was unable to go to the event. That isn’t shame on us for not being able to attend. What the shame of it is when jerks go to these things and horde the merchandise and think they have the right to triple the price of it!! I think it is a shame what people do just to make a buck!! Everyone should be able to enjoy the merchandise without jerks price gouging stuff!!
