Okw extended add on

[JBrennan1061]

Hey guys,

I am a new dvc owner at Saratoga and I was thinking of adding a small points contract on at okw extended. The contract is for $155 with an international seller. What do you think the lowest I can offer is with it passing rofr? I know the international seller seems to be the way to go.

Also I was considering adding on direct when my account is set up. I know Disney will sometimes double the points direct when you buy through them. Do they only do that for the minimum 150 points? Or can I buy 25-50 and get the double points?

I am currently awaiting a ROFR decision on an 80-point OKW(E) contract at $130 per point, so will let you know if that makes it through. Just as soon as I find out!

With it being an international seller and OKW Extended, I would try to get them as low as you possibly can unless you are just married to the idea of this specific contract.

I don't think Extended contracts are typically targeted much in ROFR. Even at a great price, they aren't as profitable for Disney to snatch up and resell as the non-extended ones. Combining that with it being an international seller? I doubt you could negotiate the price low enough to get this ROFR'd if you tried.

Of course, someone in the ROFR thread did literally just now post about OKW-E getting taken at $137.

But not an international seller.

I still stand by my original assessment that you couldn't get this ROFR'd if you tried!

Sorry, this is a misunderstanding. If someone buys a June UY direct today, they would be in their 2021 UY and would therefore be entitled to (and get) 2021 UY points. (This would be true if they buy any UY other than February, March or April - those UY are already in their 2022 UY, so the buyer would get only 2022 UY points.) The sales staff (guides) like to tell buyers that they're getting "double points" because they'll get another UY's worth of points on June 1, 2022, but that's just sales talk.

[Note: this doesn't apply to recent direct VGF-2 sales - no one is getting 2021 UY points.]

[And yes, in the past DVD did give buyers some extra points as a sales incentive, but that hasn't been offered for quite some time.]

Got it thank you that is very helpful. I'm in sales so I totally get why Disney is selling it that way.

Agree - I dont think you could find a seller who would sell to you at a price that would be ROFRed in this specific situation. The combo of small contract, extended, and international makes it pretty much bullet proof in my mind.
