And I thought the 20-minute wait on our AP preview day was bad...Crazy. Saw that the store had like a 2 hour wait.

...ITA.Disney obviously doesn't care or they would put limits on purchases. Makes me sad that they don't, but they're just asking for people to take advantage of this.
...I could be wrong, but I've heard that they are only restocking tees and pins, not the plushes.They've been replenishing everyday
My wife just wanted the "I Brer'ly got wet" secret message tank top, to be added to the heap of discontinued retro Disney shirts. I saw they had them in The Briar Patch during the CM Previews, but apparently they decided not to open that store for the AP previews or the general re-opening, and the tops were not in stock by the time we got into the store at the exit on the 11th. Hoping they may reopen The Briar Patch at some point.
They've done that beforeWas there any truth to the statement that annual passholders were having their passes revoked for doing this?
They've done that before
...because it is a collectible for you, NOT a way to retire early.I didn't see a single ornament on Friday morning & I went straight there. Hopefully by November people will have calmed down & I'll be able to get one! I collect the mickey ear ornaments but try to limit myself to one per trip, haha.
I get what you are saying, but I respectfully have to disagree. Charging $500 for a $28 item is ludicrous and cannot be categorized under "making a little extra income". And if someone is facing hard financial times, they have the means to go to WDW? That doesn't make sense.Yes, but I believe that is only for pass holder exclusive merchandise.
Also, I'd like to add: The economy is down, many are out of work. Why look down on people who can do something like this in order to make some extra income? Are that many bags a little excessive? Yes. But if you have the means...
I don't agree with price gouging on essentials, but these are luxury items. If you can make a little extra income for whatever you need, I applaud the effort.
Hoping folks in this thread are right and Disney's going to keep up their restocking game--without knowing their timeline on having merch made it'd be hard to guess when they'll stop restocking even if we knew when the ride's last day is going to be, which obviously we don't. My bet's with the majority here that it'll be a while before we even get an announcement and we'll see Disney keep right on restocking through at least the end of the year if not significantly longer.
Which is all comforting words for myself as I sit here hoping they won't be cleared out when I go in early fall, and maybe I'll even be so lucky as to be able to simply walk in the shop without signing up for a virtual queue. But...I don't know, I guess I never felt a need to buy the plushes on any previous trips, so whether I "need" any of them now is questionable. On the other hand, my favorite WDW souvenir is my Skippy plush from Extraterrorestrial and half the reason I care about that thing is because he's not around anymore....

If those people in the photo sincerely wanted to perhaps keep one and sell one, I don't even have a problem with it, as long as the mark-up is within reason. Clearly they had purchased MANY items; I wouldn't be surprised if they were being offered on E-Bay right now.
....and it probably has a value far greater than $$....My favorite is a "Figment" that my late aunt bought me somewhere MANY years ago. Iy is something I will never let go.

Yes, I rode Splash Mountain today and glancrd into the shop afterwards. They were selling Mickey & Minnie dolls where the Brer dolls used to be.They didn’t restock today according to a few CMs, when I went to the store at 4ish no themed merch at all.
