    ROFR Thread January to March 2019 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

    I have to agree especially after a five day no park trip. One of the few resorts with easy access to other resorts. So many places to just sit back and relax. The food options. TOTWL not only a nice place to watch the fireworks but a nice spot to watch the sunset.

    This listing is a mess

    That is an asking price. Offer what you think you want to pay. They can say no or counter.

    OTUP will wait list pick up one time use point reservation?

    Did you waitlist with the option to replace a current reservation? If you did when they replace the reservation they should use the point associated with that reservation. Did you use the OTUP as part of a larger reservation? If that is the case call MS and have them remove the day. They will...

    OKW better price direct

    While looking at the resells there is a OKW 2042 smaller point contracted listed for $120 with no points until 2019. If you purchase direct you receive current year forward, lower closing cost and prorated dues. The direct points would expire 2057. If I am looking at this correctly the direct...

    Is a 24 hour deadline for paperwork standard?

    I made an offer several months back and just looked at the contract. It stated I had five days to return the signed documents along with the deposit to the closing agent. It also asked to fax or email a copy to the broker but did not specify a deadline.

    Add-on overseas buyer

    Congratulations and enjoy using those extra points. Crazy how fast those points can show up. Mine took a little longer but I did make my purchase at the end of the day. Called the day after my points appeared and they banked my 2016 points and adjusted my September trip to use the banked...

    Best in-room food tips for studio kitchenettes

    I usually pack instant oatmeal for breakfast. When dining out if the portion is large and feel it will reheat well, I take it back for lunch or dinner the next day. If I had a car I would consider a stop to purchase some snacks. Learned this from staying at Aulani. We stopped on the way to the...

    $109 per point for a HH contract, made me laugh

    At that price with Disney selling only extended I would consider going direct.

    Add-on overseas buyer

    It works well for me. I have two smaller master contracts. I enjoy doing split stays because I feel it gives me two vacations in one. Usually booking three or four days at each of my home resorts. I have not used a point transfer between contracts because if I need just a few points I borrow...

    Order of bus stops at Saratoga Springs

    The DS bus at OKW does stop at the HH on the way into the resort. It is called the internal at the HH bus stop. It then does a loop around the resort and returns to the HH before returning to DS.

    Waitlist points question

    My understanding is that one time use points must be purchased at the time the reservation is made. Not sure how they handle a waitlist that is matched but does not have enough points. Thinking it might be cancelled.
