Reviving this thread to update. Not sure what to make of today.
I decided to purchase a VGC resale (because direct isn't available right now). I was notified this morning that Disney took it back. I was going to see if my guide could get it for me but she's working on the Wonder and it sounds like she's not going to deal with messages until she gets back. I thought about making an offer on another resale, but the timing is a little off right now.
As the day progressed, my 2 VGC waitlists came through.

I was booked at VDH and waitlisted VGC (which is how I often book). So, now I'm wondering if the universe is telling me that I don't need to buy VGC and I can just use my VDH. Worst case scenario - I have to stay at VDH, which I love. I just love VGC more.
