A lot of people care about the ride and it is now a relic
This is what I mean by the attractions at MK being untouchable monoliths
They garner a questionable amount of iconography in the Disney ethos. This is an example of it in action.

But, like... there's no closing date. If the rumor is true and this doesn't even close for another few years, this is pretty ridiculous. It's not like it's the final week it's open and merch is limited

They’re eBay resellers. Same group that pushed WoD hours long lines when DTD reopened.
You don’t need to go on the ride to get your eBay stuff though. Both Splash gift shops can be accessed without going on the ride and wasting 4 hours.
These are eBay sellers though:

Oh, they don't care. They're used to this by now. Ebay sellers are pretty much their own little chunk of the Disney community at this point

People will overpay for stuff they really want. And there's more cash wanting to be spent out there than many realize. Heck, we've been selling online (not Ebay) limited and/or out of print dvd's that we paid a buck or two for in overstock buys years ago, for two, three , four hundred dollars each , ever since the covid lockdown started. I've been trying to retire that part of the business slowly, but I did more than a years worth of business in April/May alone. Things finally slowed down last week. People are crazy. And on EBay, my nephew, who's in college, has been selling our old movie Tshirts and hats that we have in stock for two to three hundred apiece.

Two sold :bigeye:
Who would pay that much ... and wouldn't these be CMs buying these? I'll just stop asking questions and go dig through my drawers to see if there's any Splash Mountain junk anywhere.

Perception is all that matters. People know "ride is closing" and they buy up all the merch for it.But, like... there's no closing date. If the rumor is true and this doesn't even close for another few years, this is pretty ridiculous. It's not like it's the final week it's open and merch is limited
The ride is very well known in its current form, I'm not surprised by any of this.

I remember a time a while back when Disney did a big crackdown on people reselling off of AP discounted merch. (It violates the pass's terms) I would love to see the EBay Reckoning Part 2
This is (partially) why APs are so expensive now. The people doing this way more than made back their AP investment today.
Yes, I remember this as well. I'm expecting a 2nd part to it haha
