Anyone made it through (or not made it through) ROFR recently? - Section I

[calypso*a*go-go]

Oh you mean the....

"Waiting to hear about the process that shall not be named about the thing that shall not be named"

Thread?

Shhhhh...it's a secret!

 

[greenban]

Hey should I post a poll about superstitious ROFRites, or perhaps DVCers?

Hmmmmmm.... Maybe a poll about the poll?

Just a minute, I can't quite read the screen. I have a necklace of garlic blocking my view, not to mention, a mound of lucky horseshoes and 4-leaf clovers.

What was that old, kid's game we used to play on the sidewalk? ... "Step on a crack get an ROFR attack?"

 

[calypso*a*go-go]

I heard it helps if you sprinkle some sand from Stormalong Bay over your right shoulder...or was it the left shoulder?

 

[Tink10]

I'm telling ya....

Try the offerings to the ROFR Fairy.....

It worked for me!

 

[JoeEpcotRocks]

Made deposit on BWV today, 150 pts. @ $78 (no borrowed or banked) March UY

 

[NYsHiddenMickey]

Joe: you got some guts posting that--you must have nerves of steel,

Seriously though -Good Luck to you on that contract

 

[DisneyRose]

I think people are getting a little out of hand asking $90 a point for BCV. I'm sure someone will take it though. May take some time. Just can't see it being that great above the other resorts.

 

[Beca]

I heard it helps if you sprinkle some sand from Stormalong Bay over your right shoulder...or was it the left shoulder?

My luck I'd get the wrong shoulder and I'd NEVER get BCV points!!!!

Well, I guess no more good news today!! Here's to the beginning of another LONG weekend!!! Let's hope it is the LAST of my ROFR weekends for a while (of course, I am working on two other contracts that will be going to ROFR in about a week...I am SO insane!!! Just get me a padded cell now!!!)

JoeEpcotRocks...please update with the date your contract goes to ROFR. I am going to put it down "tentatively" as Monday.

To everyone still waiting...TRY to enjoy your weekend!!!

[Cinderpals]

Okay, I haven't heard yet about ROFR status. I've noticed at least 2 more contracts that will work for me. My DH does not want to get 'stuck' with more points should the other contract pass, so he wants me to wait. Meanwhile, I'm eyeing these other two contracts, and I'm going to wish that I had them if we don't pass ROFR. Well, I could see us needing more points, so why wait, especially if your UY comes up. My DH is not on board, so I'll have to wait, and pay more for add on points later. Ugh!! :

 

[LauraLea]

We could use some pixie dust! I just mailed our deposit to Jason for a VWL resale contract - 80 points; $79/point; March UY - all 05 points available.

This would be our first DVC contract and I do hope it passes!

[Cinderpals]

Thanks, everyone! Okay, I need to calm down....Deep Breath! I think that I heard her correctly this morning: I just called the agent at the Timeshare Store, super nice lady, who was all by herself. (My agent won't be in until tomorrow) I asked her about another BWV contract, and asked if any had passed ROFR yesterday. She had a whole list!!!! My BWV points @77 Sept UY passed!!!! I hope that she read it correctly! I haven't heard about my BCV points yet though, so I'm still nervous since I sent both contracts in at the same time. Hey, but she did read, without revealing any other specifics that BCV $83, $84 per points on the list had passed.... Beca? Is that you? Okay, nothing specific, but was asking since my points were only at $81 per point. They may be buying them back since they're holding them. They would need to mail a contract to the sellers 1st, I guess, and have them sell points to Disney. Oh!! I hope that it's just delayed!! I'm happy about the BWV points, but really need BCV for Summer vacations!! Anyone around?! I'm really excited that I've at least heard back on this one!! I'm glad I raised the points offer!!

WooHoo, Cinderpals!!! Congratulations!!! I am SOO excited for you!!!

I don't think the points would be mine, though...because I went with a different reseller....but, I will give mine a call.

Congratulations again!!! It is SOO exciting!!! The first time I got thru ROFR I was as excited as I was the day I found out I was pregnant!!!! It was like I was going to have another baby...a DVC baby!!!!

[reesecup]

Yea, Cinderpals!! I didn't think we would find out about any other contracts until tommorow! I just know mine is going to go through if your $77 went through. We gave $80 p/pt. I will be so let down now if not. And I hope I am not jinxing myself. I try not to be very superstitious. BTW...you guys that were talking about the superstitions, made me go around singing "Very Superstitious" all day long. Now, I'm doing it again. And I've been changing the words to like , "Very Superstitious, waiting on Disney's call." OK, so I got a little bored the past few days!
Beca, sounds like yours may go through!!!!

 

[Cinderpals]

Thanks for being home, Beca!! I'm very excited!! Put me on the ROFR list for BCV points at $81 pt. MAR** These went in with the BWV points that just passed. Still waiting to hear back on these BCV babies. Need lots of good vibes!! I have lots of plans for these points!!
I'm going to WDW all of these times around my children's school schedules:
'05:
Mar 22-29th WL see Swimming Jr. Nationals Orlando & Easter at Friend's Church and home
June 2nd-6th Yacht Club Star Wars Weekend (teacher work days F & Mon!)
Aug 20th-28th BCV 1 bedroom please! Vacation before school starts
Nov 4th-8th (teacher's workdays Fri, Mon & Tues) BCV pts, please pass ROFR! Will miss MNSSHP, but will be there for Wine & Food Festival BCV studio or 1 bedroom, will need more points!
More trips in '06 Annual Mother & Daughter trip FEB BCV Studio, Family trip End of August BCV 1 bedroom

DEC '06-Jan'07 Christmas and New Years with BWV points!! banked and borrowed hee hee

Disney Cruise in '07 or '08

Will post as soon as I hear back about BCV points!!

 

[Cinderpals]

I like that idea, though. Changing the words to that song. Very cool!

Mine would start out: I'm not very Superstitious!
I'm just waiting for the call!

I need BCV points to book my vacations,
before they all book up.

....I don't remember the whole song!

 

[Beca]

Cinderpals...I will certainly add you!! (how many points & "points status"?) GOOD LUCK on that contract, and please let me know as soon as you know anything!! Don't count yourself out of them yet...I SERIOUSLY think DVC works more slowly on BCV contracts...what is their "incentive" to pass them more quickly? The more stressful DVC can make ROFR...the more likely people are to want to bypass it. Me? Well, I am just rather fond of ulcers!!! But, seriously...notice OKW, HH and VB pass or fail much more quickly.

[senecabeach]

Cinderpals...YES...YES....YES.....

Super wonderful news !!!!!!!!

Oh...its sooooo great to hear you're in !!!!!!!!!!!!

Still sending much to Beca & reesecup & all still sweating ROFR!!!!!!





Yes...Im still psyched about my wait list BC Sept UY !!

 

[Cinderpals]

Hi Beca,

Here's the points and points status: BCV UY 350 pts 21 banked '04, all 350 pts available '05 at $81 per point. It's not an extremely heavy with points contract, but does have all of Mar '05 that will be available. I almost put this one in at $83 per point. So, I will probably end up with 2 UY at two different DVC homes, and possible 3 UY if this one doesn't pass. How many contracts and UYs can one keep up with? I know that I can definitely manage 2 UY with two different resorts, but 2 UY for same resort? I don't know. Will have to post this question on another site.
Will definitely post info. as soon as I found out. I'll call my agent tomorrow... Hopefully, Disney isn't holding onto my contract news because they are buying the points back! That would really put me behind to book these vacations!
