I think the lawsuit that could follow if they don't let them in is more expensive 😂 I mean if there's not a law that says that items without expiry date expire after a certain time.
I was thinking the same thing but then I realized something when your on your deathbed would you rather have a cool ticket or an amazing experience you got for free
But I would also like to point out his first instinct was to get a first class ticket to Orlando, Florida just to see if a really old ticket worked and if not, I bet you he had the money still to get in😂 So different priorities than most of people😢 So let them eat cake
Seriously, no matter who got the final say, that is stupid. Even ignoring things like the ticket lady saying "I want this piece of history" and paying for his pass personally, the company could've put that on display
I redeemed a free Chili's meal. There was no cut off price and no expiration date. The booklet has 20 coupons and is decades old. The employee got the manager and the manager came out laughing hysterically and shoke my hand. He said he don't know where I got them but he'll honor them since technically they don't expire. Hes a real one.
feels like that time we asked people to bring some newspaper for a collage activity and one boy, brought the only one in his home, without asking the parents, kinda aware that was the publishing day of brexit. I guess it has some plot holes now
its worth anywhere from $20-$40 pretty sure they don't care. its actually cheaper to buy those passes on ebay and use them to get into the park than it is buying a pass today. disney validates all passes without expiration dates.
@@ultrameticulous found a used one that sold on there for over 300 dollars, almost twice the price of tickets now and his was unused before this video. there is one on there from their opening year that is worth 1,500.
@@ultrameticulous dude I already looked at that stuff. if YOU want to check use YOUR time to do it. this issue was not even worth the initial investigation but I was curious if the OP had a point, and they do. I'm not going to go make a spreadsheet of all the prices by year and condition cross referenced by rarity of editions with the weight of a laden swallow as a control, just to prove some point to a rando on the internet.

@@dragonwolf5484 might be.... if it's something that can't be bought anymore... selling the ticket would've gotten him prob like.... 10x the amount an entry costs
Most likely it's an artifact and highly collectible. Homie got good content but he should have kept it and sold it online, vintage disney has huge resale value.
@@waflletoast11fucking seriously unless I was a 5 mil + subscriber guy I’m buying a real Disney ticket faking this video to an extent and then selling the old one untouched online
Worse… Its a ticket clip. Meaning around 5 historical tickets in a clip got voided and ruined… Even on shitty ebay it would be worth 1500$. Let alone the insane auction value with a proper appraisal at that condition. 1970 was the opening year. All those original style tickets are insanely rare.
@@KeganGardner how would an old collection item, which can be used as a 160 dollar ticcket be worth 10 bucks? dont you think people would just buy them for 10 bucks instead of paying 160 to go to disney land? you are absolutely delusional
Disney used to make you buy tickets for each individual ride instead of a general entrance fee. I’m surprised that they still upheld their end of the bargain, hats off to that lady.
@@Omar-cw5gg worked the Epcot gate for a little bit, 9/10, it was just do what upsets the guest the least, most of the time, we just give them a ticket. 30,000+ guest a day in just that park, it was better to just give them a ticket so they'll happily spend money inside over them stressing about having to spend money on a ticket. Small stuff like this, you're not bothering your lead over, 100% her
Imagine not selling the ticket to an actual collector and getting enough money that would have covered the cost of more than 100 Disney trips down the road.
It's absolutely not worth that much. These really aren't that rare. Millions of these were printed. He maybe would have recouped the modern ticket price by selling it at best.
technically wouldnt you be able to buy a ticket for $27 if theyre not that rare and do what he did? Basically entering for $150 less than the current price
My grandparents purchased a 3 day pass the first year Epcot was opened, but never used it. It also had no expiration date. I received it as a gift for my honeymoon some 15 years later and they honored it.
@@SuperfanGirl86 We tried that but the best offer we got was essentially the same price tickets were worth. So it wasn't worth the hassle selling them and we could keep the commemorative ticket stub.

Fun fact, when I wa 6 we went to day 1 opening of Universal Studios Orlando. It was notoriously BAD because of ALL the issues the rides had. We got some fancy looking raincheck tickets. When we came back we put them away in a book and forgot about them. 30 something years later we came back. Not only did they accept them but a high up exec came down to get them personally and has it as a collectors item now. We got SUPER VIP treatment that day, meals, snacks all sorts of freebies. Parks like this will always honor these because they know they will earn your money inside the parks.
The moment she started stamping the ticket, my heart sank lol that thing probably worth alot more than today's entrance fee. No to mention, it's just cool to have.
4 sure. That's why she stamped void all over it. Before he flew to Orlando, he should have done his homework. Imagine how much it would be worth a full century later. Not a chance would I have used it. Oh well. Hope he had fun.
He could have auctioned that off and gotten collectors to outbid each other for maximum amount. Would have been worth the time to do that but using it for content is easier.
10 x $8 = 80 Meanwhile it cost 160+ to get in. So even at 10x the price for the ticket he still got a better deal because the cost has gone up 2000% to get in
@@DeathgodccTTVhe means that because the ticket is so old it the price of the old ticket should be 10x the cost for a new ticket…. don’t skimp on math class bud
@@fadya.3660if you’re pathetic enough to spend your time hating on people on a RU-vid comments section then you’re probably crying about your life choices too
And the crazy thing is, this one in the video is probably in way better condition than the one that that collector purchased for $86,000. This one’s probably worth way more. It was almost pristine
Lads my dad is a collector im a collector i feel bad for this guy cuz that was a collection piece and he could of got something for it ik it isn't that deep but it's still and antique and money down the drain
@@minmo2288Not of that specific ticket clip, no. 1970s ticket clips are very rare and estimate around 500-1500 and thats not considering the surprisingly pristine look of that clip or the authenticity.
Yeah, according to an inflation calculator I used, that $8 ticket from 1978 would be roughly $40 in today's money. Which is still a 75% discount from regular prices.
As someone who works at Disney world, yes those are valid! In fact my roommates dad has one from December 1971, just a little over 2 months from opening and we will accept it!
I was born dec 1971 & that would be so cool to have Any chance of further info I don't think I'd even want to use, it'd just be nice to have, they'd ruin it if it got redeemed I can show I.D. 😁
Him in the next video: "I found this super rare collectable toy that's still in the box and in mint condition. Lets open this bad boy up and see how it plays!"
My nephew opened a kobe bryant signed bobble head from 2002 and tore the head off then proceeded to play with a 2002 signed laker ball and slobbered all over it
@@Legofan94828with all due respect have you SEEN the amounts of money disney adults (not casual but full blown) spend on Disney shit alone each year?? People absolutely would get into a bidding war over a rare ticket in such good condition for bragging rights alone
Criminal the price of admission to Disney. Shattered dreams for many a person with such a high price that will never be able to gain entry to the Magic Kingdom
I have a booklet from the year the park opened. We called them up and asked them if it was indeed still valid. They said not only was it still valid, but also that all of the ticket reps have a contest to see who can redeem the oldest pass. I would have won. Theres no way we’re going to use/sell ours.
I dunno- you also would have to measure it against the money he made from the video going there, and what it did for his longterm viability as a RU-vidr.
It's a ticket book from the 1970s - it's less than $20 on Ebay. The Disneyland ones from the 1950s (park opened in 1955) are worth a lot. There are some sellers charging exorbitant prices for the 1970s books for Disney World, but the items aren't selling.
@@petrac7778that’s not how things work if you don’t believe me check the value of a 90s Batman comic vs now compared to a 50s comic in the 90s say Batman #1
None of this is shocking NOR is it a 'good move'. It's called INFLATION. They've had the money for that ticket for over 50 years. By now they've made more in interest alone than the value of the current price!!!!
I destroyed the Taco Bell bathroom, sorry I tarnished history Oh, It doesnt work like that? Because you don't care about Taco Bell bathrooms? Well OP doesn't give a shit about the ticket
@thomaseverette1658 Things don't become worthless, just because some tabloid came out. Yes, it was worth money, but also no one knows why that was kept. Maybe it was a souvenir from his grandparents' first date, maybe gramps knew it'd be worth money and intended for it to become funds, we don't know. All we know, is that it's gone now.
Fun fact: Disney honors all “no expiration date” tickets. Also, if you purchased a ticket before 2004 and never used it you can use it to get in the park.
I’ve been collecting Disney items for just over a decade now. That was a rare ticket you have in that there aren’t many left. I’ve seen it go as high as $65,000 at auction but you could’ve easily got $30,000 without much effort in a private sale if you were just looking to offload it like that
It's tragic that he used the ticket I have my own collection myself with multiple fancy watches and pens from a deceased relative I would have gladly kept the ticket anyone who sells dead relatives items unless given permission I have no respect for even if I were offered infinite money I still wouldn't sell my watch collection even if I could buy infinite fancy watches and build the best collection.
@@lucasjensen4309 nah you stop lying bro. You can find my Disney collection and credentials easily. I’m also VP of Strategy for Disney’s Involvement in Collectibles and Kinetics
@@TheDirtyNorth907just because its on ebay for that price doesn’t mean its worth that much. I could put my toothbrush on ebay for that price if I wanted.
@Jhromanjr do you understand how expensive the food and stuff is??? I bought a little cake thing from one of the food places once and it was $5 or $6. It was tiny and tasted horrible-
It's really cool that they honored the ticket and I'm glad you shared this. The vaule of the admittance was $165 but the actual value of the ticket you had was $400. You could have sold it and bought two passes. Not to mention that it'd probably only appreciate in value.
Young people have absolutely no care for history and most of the new generation are extremely narcissistic and could not care less about some one other than themselves. Even their own family
The stamping hurt my heart. With every stamp I kind of got a punch to the chest 😭 I realize now though that she did it so the ticket wouldn’t be used again. Still though, ouch.
@@xoicaCould have likely bought an annual pass atleast. Annual passes are 1.5k and the ticket clip he had can be worth that or many thousands more depending.
