ROFR Thread April to June 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

I see a june use year 200 point international seller listed on the board sponsor website, right now! it's listed at $139 pp but make an offer. You never know.

Thanks for the tip! Found it, and offer made!

Asking price was $150/pt. I made the offer at a point when I already had three in ROFR review, thinking it had no chance. As the pending 3 contracts started to pass, I was hoping this one wouldn't and a bit fearful it would.

Essentially I was helping DVD and the seller make a deal. Glad I could help.

Ah! Well congrats on the contracts that passed! Were they priced higher?

Yes they were; 200@$162, 175@$162, and 150@$164. I think we have enough (for now?).

I own at Copper Creek as well. Good choice!

Thanks for the confirmation! It seems hard to get in there without the 11 month window, especially in December. We typically do a large family trip then with 10-12 people.

I agree. Finding good deals and negotiating can be fun, but for me the waiting, the ROFR process, the monumentally extended timelines to actually get the points, and of course problems with unreliable sellers all kind of eclipse the fun element. That said, the savings are great, though I've bought more direct points recently for what I believe is stronger long term value.

I'm still marveling at that Aulani contract!! Well done my friend! I bought most of my Aulani points about two years ago within a range of $90-$96, so I can't complain. One of these days, you should actually plan a stay at Aulani. Its sensational!

1) in terms of direct contracts lately, I don't blame you. I was really tempted to buy 300 direct points at Aulani during the big sale. Might have considered GF if we hadn't already finished buying contracts.
2) Aulani was defintely a steal and still can be even if it is a higher pp now. As for going there we will. It's just a matter of when. This year and next are occupied with wdw and Mexico. We would be looking at 2025 for our 25 year anniversary although if we try to take the kids 2024 it's possible.

Updated!

I'll try to update next weekend but I have a solo trip on the books for Flower and Garden (I'm clearly turning into my mother, lol) so it might be delayed. But it will get done!

Enjoy that trip! Thank you for updating the thread like you do. It's such helpful info.

We'll be at BWV next weekend; so maybe we'll run into you!

Sorry, completely off topic, but if you can remember, can you please take a picture of the BW Recreation Calendar for me for the Monthly Recreation Calendar Thread? I’d truly appreciate it!! Thank you!

Just heard from the broker, we are officially in Day 1 of ROFR.

Sure. I put a reminder on my calendar so I'm less likely to forget.

Thank you so much

I've felt pretty zen about rofr til seeing myself as second from top on the updated list (waiting on AKL). Now my stomach hurts . Fingers crossed I get an answer this week or next so I can try for another if needed...

So got the first of our 2 emails to activate our membership. I know the second one will come in 2-4 hours, then I'll wait a day or two and request points be added to our account via chat. I know all this because of the wonderful tips and advice from this board. We only closed 12 days ago, so this seems super fast to me also. BCV here we come.

I still can't believe how fast your process went. You passed 4 days before us and we still don't even have our closing docs finalized... (we mailed back today).

I guess it is positive karma for the 5 months of 4 ROFR'D contracts we lost. But all is good, this contract was a bargain compared to the first 4, so in the end worth the wait. Still waiting on ROFR for the 6th contract, but not even concerned about it, since we know we got this one.

That's awesome. We closed 4/28 (deed recorded 4/29) and as an existing member I haven't heard a peep from Disney.

Call. Last time I called two or three days after the deed was recorded, on a new use year and therefore new membership, and they had my points loaded overnight.

 

[lkpat1983]

Today’s my anniversary! Would be a super fun gift to pass ROFR! Not holding my breath though. 25 days on PVB.

 

[NorCalDisFan]

Sorry, Again not rofr related. I wonder how much 2021 stock market boom affected dvc resale price and the current stock market tumbles would. Everyone seems happy in this forum while i’m

 

[BamaGuy44]

Maybe I'm paranoid but I feel called out! Lest anyone think ya boy Cap was lying about $100 loaded Aulani.
