I have MBs that I keep in my car for last minute trips. Have used them to go to the parks @10 - 12 times in less than 2 years.And even if it's 4 years, most people would likely only get a couple of visits in.

So not fully functional.

My point was that there do exist some people, like us, who could care less about the on-ride photos. It is not correct to say that "dead" magic bands are useless. "Dead" magic bands are just fine for us. As a side benefit, if Disney is in fact "tracking people's every move" in the parks via magic bands (which I sorta doubt), using one with a dead battery only gives them data for what rides you actually ride.
This has to do with, "Look at me! Look at how much money I have!"
I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with that. Considering she's a host of a podcast about Disney, we can be pretty certain this was about press and free advertisement.
Which by the way seems to have worked. And even though a lot of folks can look at that band and laugh knowing it ain't real/legit and probably cost $100 not $450 - she still got what she was after.
Of course folks can spend however much money they want to spend on anything they want to spend it on. However, when the let their "prize" get posted in articles that we all can read....we are allowed to judge the result of their craft project.It states it works in the article.
Also, my goodness people are being judgmental. It's not my thing but people can use their money on whatever they want. Who am I to judge I've spent more money on sillier things. At least she uses it.
But... but.... but...
People do understand that MBs are temporary, throw away things right?
They have a short shelf life. Even paying $35 for a "special edition" is stretching it when you'll get to use it on at most a handful of visits.
Maybe people collect them. Maybe it's a souvenir from their trip. $35 isn't much for something small to remind you of a favorite trip or a small token of your favorite character.
