I think it had been active for about 45 days.

I generally pay very little attention to list price when making an offer. I’m sure there are some sellers very familiar with average resale prices and unwilling to settle for much below asking (I mean, that would be me) and there are others who just want to get rid of this thing and, if it means they’re parting with it for less than they listed, they’re just glad to be done.

Decided to look up the person we bought from and found out they are famous. Probably why our offer wasn’t countered. Thinking they were done with it and didn’t want the hassle of going back and forth.

Every time I have a new PhD student, about a year in they come to me with an ask: "I could use This Thing for my research project. Is it okay if I buy it?"

Inevitably, This Thing costs about $250 or so.

My response is always: "You've wasted more money by getting up from your desk and walking over here to ask me this question. From now on, anything less than $500 just buy, and never ask me about them again."

I suppose there is a version of that for low-four-figures in a DVC sale.

Not asking you to reveal their name but famous for what? Like a celebrity or an author or athlete?

I’m trying to figure out what the most likely overlap is between DVC owner and famous person.

Once when I was looking up my own contract in occompt I noticed Colin Jost had a contract close the same day (I didn’t look close but it might have been an in family transfer). Celebrities…they’re just like us!

That’s crazy! I would have actually assumed Scarlett Johansson can just stay club level whenever she feels like it instead of playing DVC slots and planning 10 months in advance.

I think it came from his family, not hers.
