The $88 that went through was an Oct UY and didn't have any points left for 2024 - not super useful if you need to flip them back Oct 1. Those stripped points may have saved the contract for them!
Oh great the ROFR monster has become self aware, we're all screwed now.....
I guess since you were the seller you were fine either way. Less chance for shenanigans if Disney is the buyer.
Update:
Congrats neighbor! Nice to have some of those points available to use immediately. Hopefully you have a quick close! I passed on 8/28 so I'm curious how long it'll be from date of passing to being able to use points. Keep us updated
You’ve tried a few times now right? That’s a great contract.
Disney does not (yet at least, that I know of) use ROFR on international sellers. There are a number of additional loopholes to jump through and it can take a much longer time start to finish to close on an international contract.
As stated, it helps avoid the contract being taken in ROFR. I bought a contract from an international seller a couple years ago when ROFR was very active across many resorts. I don't feel it added much time over a domestic seller resale contract. The closing thread would verify they don't add much time.
Yep, I've had 2 OKW contracts eaten by ROFR. Third time was the charm! Now to find another OKW 230 pointer with Sept UY.
I did a few years ago. They & DVC aren't set up for "donations" of DVC points.
I believe in the past they've taken confirmed reservations as donations--but not points.
