    March Check-In **Official** Thread (Start with Post #17)

    We are planning on going to DL 3/23 and 3/24 in between checking out So Cal Colleges for my kid (if they are still open to tours) and wrapping up our trip in Palm Springs. I've been holding off buying our park passes in case things get worse, but it appears most of the CA threat is in the SF area.

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    One of the owners from UT reached out to me this afternoon to help resolve this issue with Disney. He was very helpful and apologetic for the response I received yesterday when I called.

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    This is the route I will likely take. I called ticket services and they stated any tickets I received thru the upgrade could be applied to a later trip (and upgraded over the phone if needed to at a later date). One thing I didn't ask is if the tickets are transferable, because I wasn't aware...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    If I bought the tickets from Disney I could upgrade over the phone. Since I bought from UT, the tickets can only be upgraded at the gate. There was no mention at all on the order form or the tickets I received that these expired at a certain point in time.

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    So I just found out the hard way that tickets have to be used in the year of purchase as I bought mine last Feb. I didn't see this anywhere on the order form when buying my tickets from UT, nor was this printed on the tickets I received. I just noticed my tickets were no longer linked to MDE...

    FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    We are headed to WDW at the end of March and I bought tickets last Feb from Undercover Tourist (initially we planned to go in Aug 2018). When I went to MDE I noticed my tickets were no longer linked so I called the help desk. I was unaware that tickets now expire in the year of purchase (we go...

    Please recommend a resale broker

    It was almost 3 months for us from acceptance of offer to being able to book our 1st DVC trip with our own points for this upcoming fall. The folks we bought from sold 2 contracts and the other contract closed 15 days faster (not sure why but our Estoppel took almost 4 weeks). As many have...

    Help please....question about Orange County Comptrollers website

    That is the correct site. I used either party (to the right of where you can filter dates) when searching for my deed.

    Even more interesting is I was just looking on the site where the deed will be eventually recorded I see that the other contract our seller sold was recorded yesterday. The contract was listed the same day as ours (we offered on day 1, accepted on day 2, and sent to ROFR on day 4) and passed...

    Come on Estoppel!!!!

    It took over 3 weeks from passing ROFR to get the closing docs which seemed a little longer than a few others so I am not overly optimistic.

    Buy Saratoga instead of Boardwalk, pass Go and collect $200...

    We are in process of buying SSR. We stayed at SSR on our last trip and enjoyed it quite a bit. My wife loves DTD so being close is huge plus for her. I prefer the spacious rooms at OKW or SSR so my little ones have room to play when we are not at the parks. SSR was the best value during my...

    Ballpark range for SSR

    I paid $90 a point for a 100 point contract that had full 15 and 16 points. Maybe I could have offered $87-$88/pt but the risk of losing a contract that I wanted wasn't worth $200-$300. Resale prices have increased significantly over the last few years. You might be able to find a stripped...
