ROFR Thread Jan to March 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

I have your triplet. I put an offer on one of these, and it took two days to hear back. When I was told the offer was accepted, I looked for the other two, but they were gone. It's a perfect contract. I needed just that amount to make sure I get a 1 bedroom savanna view for 4 nights even at peak season. I'm a split stay person-4 days here/4 days there. This summer I'm splitting 3 times: 5 at OKW, 4 at Bay Lake, and 4 at AKV. I've been looking for about 4 months such a contract. I promised I would buy direct at AKV in Sept if I did not find one.

Does that make us inlaws or outlaws LOL? That is too funny...I called and asked about three and then when I called back five minutes later, one was gone. We were considering buying direct too!
I'm happy it went to a fellow disboarder!

Two is actually perfect for us as we are fine tuning our contracts for our retirement trips. We want a shot at AKV value 1BR or even studios but will have enough for at least standard studios. I'm trying to get at least a month in (mostly) an OKW 1 BR in October. We are in the 600's now which is not enough!

Congratulations!!!

I know this is the wrong thread for this, but just FYI, DVC is bringing back Moonlight Magic.....finally!

Just the main WDW parks, nothing for water parks yet.

blimey, The trainee who was being generous on the passes must be gone

I can only imagine it’s because it’s a loaded contract?

looks like the tides have turned on passes

and yes, it looks like loaded contracts are the ones getting gobbled. not good news for my next offer

 

[Ginamarie]

Aaaaand they're back to buying AKV contracts again.

We may be seeing AKV direct price increase next month. Though now I don't feel quite as bad for spending $135/point on AKV a few months ago.

 

[princetonsmom]

Were advised that Disney exercised ROFR on our 200 point contract at BWV. Price was $130/pt. I guess I'll go see what fresh hell I am about to descend to waiting for Disney to close :S

 

[princesscinderella]

I feel like Mondays are ROFR passing days and Thursdays seem to be buy back notifications.

 

[Allison270]

We have almost an identical one we’re waiting to hear back on. $135/pp with 100 points that’s loaded. I bet that they’ll take ours too.

Good to hear. But I don’t like what I’m reading wrt potential problems booking MM if you’re using resale points, even if you are a direct member. Oh Disney IT….

 

[snowy82]

i'm very new to all of this, so what does Disney gain when it buys a loaded contract? It has more room availability? Or does it literally spit that very same contract out to people it lures on its property? I had assumed that Disney can tweak that bought contract however it liked...even change the use year, but what do I know??

There won't be any problem, that's just typical rampant DisBoard speculation. MM is booked directly through DVC, and has zero to do with MDE, or whether your digital card says Y or ND. Now using your discount once you're at MM, well that might still be an issue (even though your very presence there is predicated on perk eligibility).

I hope you’re right. I’m just reading a lot of people suggesting possible hiccups when trying to book MM when booked on resale points. The prospect doesn’t surprise considering Disney’s IT reputation. Kinda like when I haveto wait on the phone for hours just to borrow some points.

I don’t thing there’s a rhyme or reason. Disney sometimes takes loaded and stripped. They pass on $130pp and take $160pp. There is no pattern.

You can book MM without blue card standing?

Not sure this one stands a chance of passing ROFR, but here goes. Fingers crossed.

I thought it was a "Blue Card" perk.

 

[dado4]

Not to change the subject but, is it too soon to put Beach Club on my signature line, do I have to wait until the contract shows up in my DVC account? Haha

Nicely done! Is 130 the new floor for BCV? I gotta get on this <giddyup>

LOL, probably not at BCV, but definitely hoping that it flies for BWV!
