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

[Flossbolna]

I just got the message that I passed ROFR for my first DVC contract at BWV! Here are the details:

150 BWV (Aug), 148 '10 points, all '11 points, buyer pays closing, seller pays '10 mf (sub 10/20, passed 11/17)

ETA: I forgot to mention that I used the Timeshare Store and they were wonderful to deal with!

I just realized that I forgot the most important bit of data for the purpose of this thread... I paid 71 $ per point. Closing was on 11/29, so now I am just waiting to appear in Disney's database so that I can start to book my first trip home in November 2011!

Exciting things happening! We currently own 100 pts at VGC and have a small contract at VB. Decided to sell the VB points and add on at VGC.

So our VB contract has just been listed for sale and we have offered on 70 pts at VGC! This has gone for ROFL today so we are waiting impatiently.

OKW (2042), 67pts, all '09 & '10 pts, June UY, buyer pays closing/mf's. $69/pt.

Submitted to Disney 12/03

I just got approval for SSR resale for $62 a point at 200 points for use year in August with full 200 points on 2010 and 2011. Disney decided not to utilize ROFR.

Congratulations!! What a great deal! I've been following this thread for awhile as I have adonistis bad -- I look at my dues bill online and that helps me get over it, but these great prices are hard to fight!

I learned a lot from the threads here on the Dis. The best tip I got was not to be afraid to ask for what you want. I think this contract was originally listed at $64, but it was the right use year and the point allotment we wanted.

We had put in an offer on a different contract, but were rejected. We bid the same amount ($58) on a second contract - and were thrilled when it was accepted!

So know what you want to pay, your use year, and point amount - then go forth fearlessly and ASK.

Thanks to everyone for the terrific advise over the years. Without you, our Disney experiences wouldn't be this sweet.

Best of luck to you! We just love our time at the Boardwalk....

Thanks, Wigd!! I feel like that about you, too! You are all really funny over there!

And I am sooooo excited about this contract- because it was sooooo unexpected- but I kept on telling DH what was going through, and he finally BIT! You could have knocked me over with a feather when he said "make them an offer" last weekend! I was on the phone in literally 10 seconds before he had a change of heart- not that he has!
