Just make sure it's an authorized ticket reseller!! Many dealers in the Orlando area are not!

The ticket reseller noted to me that anyone can buy and use this ticket.. even Americans. They have sold this ticket a thousand times over without a problem. Once onsite, like any other ticket, you swipe and they'll obtain your finger print. There is the option of getting a voucher I've heard and obtaining the ticket at Guest Relations as you have mentioned.

Robtking.. you mentioned you were a cast member, and you checked these tickets.. if there was a problem with the tickets, the guests were then sent to guest relations as you've mentioned.. Seems to me a two step process you described.. good tickets allowed admission.. tickets with problems with biometrics are sent to guest relations.. but your latest post says straight to guest relations.. seems like two completely different and contradicting processes you've communicated. What is the exact process?

Edit: I can see the need to visit guest relations if you have a electronic ticket. Sorry robtking.. misread your comment about the electronic tickets.
