The DW and I have been looking into the DVC for some time just never pulled the trigger. I had never been to Disney prior to meeting my wife 8 years ago and we took our first trip for our Honeymoon "totally her choice" 6 years ago. Been back 3 more times since then and planning another late this Oct. Ended up stumbling upon the resale market and with the prices it was more than enough to make us take the leap.
Submitted for ROFR on Mar 16th
Passed ROFR on Apr 4th
Received closing documents Apr 13th
Mailed back documents and money on Apr 14th
Insert what seemed like 2 months here
Confirmation we closed on Apr 22nd
Ended up with 151 points from 2009, all of 2010, and in Nov will receive 2011 points.
Besides seeming to take forever, was a pretty painless evolution. Now we know that our children (4, 2, and newest due in Oct) will have many fun times coming in the near future. And yes ... I tried talking her into a different date for the trip this year but she insisted on going a couple weeks after our newest addition so she could indoctrinate him/her as early as possible.
Now we just have to wait another 7-14 days until we get into the system to make our plans.
