What causes Charley to be unable to buy tickets on the third level?
Charley is unable to buy tickets on the third level because the money he carries is from the modern era and is not accepted in the past time he believes he has entered. When he tries to purchase tickets for Galesburg, Illinois, the clerk at the ticket counter tells him that his currency is invalid because it is from the 20th century, not 1894. This moment of realization forces Charley to confront the reality that the third level is a gateway to the past, and the modern world’s money cannot be used there, reinforcing the gap between the present and the time he wishes to escape to.
