Buy 1 day Universal at gate?

I have searched the forum for the answer, but can somebody help me? Is it correct that buying a 1 day ticket at the gate at Universal is the same price as buying online from their website before we travel? Some of the threads on here mention it's 10 - 20% dearer on the gate but don't seem to be specific in ticket duration .

I bought one at the gate a couple of weeks ago. It was a 1 day ticket for (the old) Universal only.

I seem to recall it cost just over £100 each so about $125.

I honestly don't know, but their website is showing the same price as undercovertourist.com for a single day Base ticket, $132.06. Link below.

The price of a 1 day ticket on the gate is the same as the price online from Universal's website. There is no difference (remember to take into account tax at 6.5%).

The price of the multi-day tickets is $20 cheaper online from Universal's website than the price on the gate. So, prices for 2 day, 3 day or 4 day tickets are cheaper online.

Prices from other websites (eg. UndercoverTourist) vary but for 1 day tickets they are usually equal to, or slightly more expensive than, the price on the gate. Prices for multi-day tickets are usually cheaper from the other websites than from Universal.

You used to be able to get a discount at the gate with an AA card, not sure if you still can.
