ROFR Thread April to June 2021 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

Hello Everyone! Currently in the process of purchasing a 300 pt Aulani contract for $80/pt. Is this a good deal? How does it compare to historical prices for contracts this size? At initial glance of ROFR threads, it appears pretty good.

80$/pt right now seems a very good deal! Prices are so high since few months

Yes, I read somewhere else that someone had inquired this week about buying SSR direct, and DVC was out of SSR inventory. So it makes sense that they're back to buying SSR contracts right now. I think it's a really attractive purchase for people because DVC has it priced the lowest and was running incentives on top of that. For anyone who wants that blue card, that's the most cost effective way to go.

I still don't understand why Disney is using ROFR to fill up inventory. Why wouldn't they just buy resale contracts themselves? They could negotiate better deals which would allow them to make more money once the contract is sold again directly and at the same time, there wouldn't be many Disney customers disappointed when trying to buy resale but have their contracts taken - in the end, these are still customers of Disney with all of the annual dues they will be paying and money they will spend while being onsite on food, theme park entrance etc; why let these people down so often?

Completely understand why they use ROFR to keep the prices on level - but for stocking up inventory, it makes little sense.

Loaded PVB for $146/pt, seems like a killer deal right now! Everything I see is around $170+ for stripped. Wonder where these deals are coming from?

Yes, that's a good deal.

Part of this has to do with the fact that it's 275 points (on the higher side). And it seems more likely to pass ROFR because of all the loaded points.
Not everyone is paying list prices- you have to try to negotiate.

I saw a price today for OKW-E - $150 for 50 points.... for the extra $750, I'd buy those direct every time.
When I see a price like that, I think the seller will have to negotiate and take less or risk not selling the contract.

It’s not as good as it seems. Seller is behind on dues, so apparently they couldn’t bank the 2020 points?!? Nonetheless, right now I was happy with $146 pp, since it does at least have full 2021 points.

But what's genius about this... I'm assuming seller has to pay the 2020 dues from his proceeds. So Disney will be thrilled to get the dues. They're little reason for Disney to buy this one back- it wants the seller to get up to date and the new buyer to start paying the 2021 dues. So you wind up with a good price and less of a chance of ROFR.

There's another OKW E contract listed at $135 that's been sitting for over 30 days.

Thanks for the clarification. Still a great deal in what seems to be a seller's market! If I hadn't just bought PVB, I would have been buying this if I had seen it!

Too good to miss this one. I didn't need any more but this was far too good a deal:

macman123---$160-$10350-60-VGF-Aug-0/20, 60/21, 60/22 - sent 5/19

Was it 160 or 60 points? Either way I can’t believe you got VGF for $160! Would you mind sharing which broker you used?

 

[macman123]

Edited - thanks. 60 points. I cant believe I got 60 point contract for $160pp

Yeah I agree even if you don’t need more points you can’t let that contract get away.

 

[macman123]

Agreed. I had expressed an interest via their signup a few months ago. Then the broker said, we have this come up. Do you want it before its listed.

I guess the price point on that from main stream brokers would be around $195pp-$200pp mark........

Indeed I do!

Assuming it passes be certain to ask DVC if you can bank the 2020 points once the contract is loaded. They've allowed it a few times in the past for resales although I'm suspicious they may not anymore but still, doesn't hurt to ask.

GREAT suggestion!!! IF I pass, I will definitely call DVD and ask/beg/plead when it's loaded.

 

[rkrose1]

Yeah!! We passed RoFR today I hope there is availability for some short trips before the 2019 banked points expire, or that we at least close and load in time to put them in RCI. This is our first resale purchase.
