Buying only park tickets from an ABTA-bonded site does not in any way guarantee any sort of protection.

I'm not sure what having an "Authorized Disney tickets seller" image on a website actually means nor what protection it gives you. Plus, as far as I'm aware, there's no list online that can be used to check whether a website that says it's authorised actually is authorised by Disney.
Thank you for clearing that up. I was only going by my own experience and from what I have read on other forums that talk about ATD being Authorised Ticket sellers. Lets hope the Black Friday Deals are as good as before! Here's hoping.

Oh, yes, ATD *are* Authorised Ticket Sellers. So are a number of other ticket sellers, for example OrlandoAttractions and FloridaTix.

It's just that I have no idea what benefits or guarantee that provides to the customer. It probably simply means that they've signed up to some ticket selling rules that Disney enforces.

excellent prices on sale at the moment, take a look! I paid 349 for universal seaworld switch ticket, 340 at the mo on sale, 365 usual price currently so this is a good saving. Also universal at 241 instead of 265, wish Id waited a bit longer now!

What site did you get these tickets from?

Seems to be the one I highlighted originally, Orlando Attraction Tickets. However the ticket mentioned is marked as only 2018. If that's not true then it's a good saving! Their 2019 prices for Universal are just their normal price though, despite that apparently being the 'sale' price.

The price that col1968 quoted for the Universal, SeaWorld Switch Ticket is the 2018 price [as you said] the 2019 price is £365. The same goes for the Universal 3 Park Explorer Ticket, col1968 has quoted the 2018 price, the 2019 price is £256 adult, £248 child, it's cheaper to get it from kenwoodtravel.co.uk £248 adult, £240 child, but I think it's a voucher that you need to exchange over there.

Hopefully col1968 is visiting in 2018 then. Only their countdown seems to say they're visiting in 2019. Tickets for 2018 won't be valid in 2019.
