Wow! I can't believe you had to hang on so long but it was worth it in the end! Congrats! (from another member of team 4/27!)

Congratulations can't believe it was over a month!

Congratulations looks like June is starting off as a better month than May for everyone.

 

[motherof5]

That would be so frustrating. I know I started to be on pins and needles after 2 weeks, I can't imagine waiting all that time and then finding out it had passed 3 weeks before.


Congrats, nice contract. I hope you can use all the back points.


That is terrible.


WOW! You got the deal of the year.


Me too, I am still waiting. Estoppel seems to be taking longer than I expected, but I have a close date of 6/18 on my contract, so I assume they have to have it done by then.


Good luck!

Wow this was a amazing deal. I am a little confused how are there still points from 2016 I thought points were only good for 1 year

 

[motherof5]

Outstanding ! If it was a mistake take it and run quickly!

I agree!

I am now 3 for 3 in the Disney ROFR department so I am definitely quitting while I am ahead

And my Old Key West contract closed today so only 2 - 3 more weeks before I can create my DVC member account and book my first DVC trip

Congrats! Good luck on booking your first trip home.

Finally! I was a member of the 4/27 club but didn't want to jinx it! Now onto the next waiting game!

JennaShapiro---$140-$19022-125-PVB-Jun-125/17, 202/18, 125/19, 125/20- sent 4/27, passed 6/5

I am sorry it took so long for you to hear, but glad you passed too!

Unfortunately, we will be canceling the contract. It was a great price and we were really excited.

I've waited almost a month for a seller to return the signed deed due to a nasty divorce. Eventually whatever the issue was worked itself out and the guy signed and that was that.

It sounds like you're canceling more due to impatience or frustration. I'd suggest giving it a couple more weeks, but it's your call. Good luck!

Shocked it passed and wonder if it was a mistake

Wow!! Incredible.. ! my guess it has too many points void that they’d be waiting on. Great deal

Definitely the deal of the month or quarter or year! There was a 1000+ point VGF contract that sold for under $120pp back in December/January. So the big contracts definitely can go at a discount. Woohoooooo!

1000 points wow. I couldn't image.

 

[Jerry5788]

1000 points wow. I couldn't image.

I think there is a thread somewhere on here that has the names/posts of those with 1,000 points

That list has mostly people who have 1000 points or more in the aggregate.

VGF sold a lot of fixed weeks in BIG chunks of points (I think the 1000 point on that sold was a fixed week in July in a GV or 2br. I don't see those owners as being the power-users who frequent these boards...

 

[kboo]

Oh, and this happened too:

kboo---$150-$15742-100-VGF-Aug-0/16, 124/17, 16/18, 100/19-124 pts expire 7.31- sent 5/17, passed 6/5

Now I have to hope that estoppel goes quickly and we have a hope of using those 124 points. If we lose those points, then it's only a "meh" price for VGF.

 

[CMNJ]

Wow this was a amazing deal. I am a little confused how are there still points from 2016 I thought points were only good for 1 year

They have a dec UY so 2016 points go from Dec 1 2016-Nov 30 2017. They said the points had been banked into the 2017 UY so they run from Dec 2017-Nov 2018. They can’t be banked a second time so they will have to use them by Nov 30th or lose them.

Congrats - hopefully they banked those points for you...never understand how people mismanage using their points like that

 

[ScubaCat]

1000 points wow. I couldn't image.

@pangyal has a few of those.

 

[kboo]

Congrats - hopefully they banked those points for you...never understand how people mismanage using their points like that

Unfortunately they couldn't bank those points because they were behind either in dues or mortgage payments (or both), so they are 2017 points that expire in their 2017 UY. I kind of knew that when making the offer, to not count on the value of the points, but if we were to get anything back from renting those points, it would make a huge difference in the "cost per point" (using Disney math). Otherwise, $150 pp for a mostly stripped small contract is (to me) just an OK price.

(After closing, together with my other VGF contract, I will have a grand total of 20 2018 points. Because I spent them all already... When I told DH we passed ROFR last night, he high fived and said, "Great! You mean now we could stay in a LAKE VIEW studio over Christmas?")

Congrats! I submitted something similar 5/15 and still waiting...ughhh I hope to hear this week..I'm impatient haha... I would have thought they went in order by submission date and resort or something but it's so random I don't have a clue when to expect to hear something

Welcome to the BLT family! Hope closing happens quickly so you can bank those 2017 points before the end of July
