I thought I'd start a master thread to keep track of how long VGC wait lists are running. It will be a great resource for people on the wait list or considering joining the wait list. Please include

Your requested contract
Whether it's a new purchase or add-on
Whether you are a new member to DVC or own elsewhere
The day you joined the wait list
Your place on the wait list if you know it
When you received your points
The details of your final contract :)

I will update the thread as people get their points so we have a a running idea of wait times.

Hope this is helpful for everyone!:woohoo:

DVC "accidentally" gave me my add on at the end of May. We contacted our guide when we saw the charges to confirm and after a couple days, he got back to us saying it was a mistake. They accidentally passed up another family who was ahead of us so they refunded our $ and gave the contract to the other family. We are now #1 on the waitlist per our guide.
 
Your requested contract - 160 pts
Whether it's a new purchase or add-on - New
Whether you are a new member to DVC or own elsewhere - New
The day you joined the wait list - 4/15/11 (I was 34th on the list)
Your place on the wait list if you know it - #3 (for something other than small add-ons) a few weeks ago :cool1:
When you received your points - ??
The details of your final contract - ??

They did offer me a 71 pt contract a few weeks ago which I passed on. Maybe I should have taken it if they'd have let me stay on the list!
 
Disney ROFR'd my 160 point contact on Monday, so maybe someone will get taken off the wait list soon.
 
Out of curiosity, how much is DVC direct price for GCV points now?
 
I'm now #1 on the WL for purchases other than add-ons as of today!:yay:

I was told there are 54 people on the WL and the price is going up to $130 next Monday. If you're on the WL, though, you're protected at the price you joined.

We got on the wait list on Aug 8 for June use year at 150 points the day before the price went up. Apparently we can drop down in points but can't go up and keep the $120 per point price. We'll likely just get 100-120 points at this time. Also June has the most waiting while some of the other months have only a few waiting.
 
Wow, this makes me so glad I went ahead and got my two 80 point contracts. If my son moves back home, then my two contracts will be up for sale.

I guess that's me! Just got called this afternoon that I'm a new DVC member with 160 points at VGC for June UY! :dance3:

Sorry you had to lose out, though.:sad:

The waitlist is up to 2 pages, now. More than my guide has seen for any other site. About 20 people on the list who either want June or have no preference.

Congrats to you :goodvibes. Glad to see they're going to someone!

Whether you are a new member to DVC or own elsewhere: current member, no other ownership

Your place on the wait list if you know it: #1 on Aug 12 (originally #26)

Originally, purchased 160 points, but found it was not quite enough points for our annual visit. Hopefully, done with point purchases for now.

Good luck to all on the waitlist!
