This does not give me high hopes for my $129/160.

 

[LadybugsMum]

I'm still salty about my BWV contract being taken. I need a Grumpy smilie.

Same for me. Same price/points, I'm assuming it will be bad news

My wife's addonitis struck hard after having to stay in a studio at OKW this past week instead of the 2 BDRM we had when we took all 4 kids in September. I don't expect to get the OKWE contract, maybe we will lose both. CCV sort of went against everything in me because I agreed to it even though the price wasn't really low(not bad, just not great). It kills me not to get a screaming deal. I almost never find Feb CCV contracts.

Feb contracts are mother's milk. I paid well over what I should have on a Feb contract at BRV, because you see them so rarely.

I apparently got beat by you(in terms of time, not price) for this one. When did you try to get it? I think you had already agreed to a deal before I saw it, as I looked Saturday afternoon and spotted the 3 CCV contracts. I would have rather gotten the banked points with yours and a little cheaper than I agreed to.

Got it late Thursday night (October 28th).

Ok good makes me feel much better that I wouldn't have been able to get it. We didn't get home until late Friday night from Disney, so I wouldn't have looked before Saturday. I don't care about the $3 a point, I just would have loved the dues free banked points

 

[perchy]

Welcome Home!
I was watching the HHI contract you are talking about to see if they would drop the price.
HHI is a nice relaxing getaway, especially since you are nearby as well!

I thought after a month I might have some wiggle room, but they were firm. Still seems priced fairly, even being a small contract.

Our agent called last night to tell us the sad news. We figured it wouldn't pass, but was such a good deal we had to try. She said Disney has been taking everything for OKW and SSR lately. Nothing has been passing for SSR that's under 132/pt. Already have another offer in though, hoping we can reach a deal and try again!

Im in for $125pp. I feel your pain

 

[Ginamarie]

Honest question.....no accusations...just curious for opinions from some who have more experience with DVC and the resale process. Do direct guides have influence on the ROFR process or have access to the names involved in resale contracts that come over to Disney for ROFR? For instance, if you were speaking with a direct guide but decided to pursue resale instead, would that direct guide have any influence on the ROFR decision process, perhaps thinking if 1 or 2 of your resales had ROFR exercised, you may get frustrated and return back to direct options?

My direct guide seemed to have no idea I bought another resale contract. I don’t think they see any part of the ROFR process.

I had seen that OKWE contract and would have bid on it myself if I was ready to buy more points. Great deal if it sneaks through!

Wow, that’s a great deal! And almost fully loaded! Good luck!

I'm not hopeful given other data points but we'll see.

Wahhh they got me

So sorry. They took my AKV on Friday. I'm already in a new contract that I actually think one is a better value, although it's more money overall. If they take this one as well, I may change resorts. But I really want AKV.

 

[Pnyc1969]

I don’t believe they do, though there have been people who question this very thing from time to time due to what I feel is just coincidental bad luck. In our most recent resale purchase we had reached out to our guide about RIV or AKV direct, spoke on the phone, traded emails with pricing info and such. A week or two later and we ended up with an AKV resale at $123pp that passed ROFR when others were being taken as high as $128 at the time. So if he had influence he certainly didn’t exercise it, especially at a price they very well could have taken it. That just solidified for me what I already believed to be true, it’s a completely numbers based decision on a contract by contract basis. We just don’t know what those numbers are, nor will we ever, because I believe it’s so fluid it’s always changing for Disney.

What numbers do you mean? Points in the contract? Price per point?

What numbers do you mean? Points in the contract? Price per point?

In my opinion, all of the above, and then some. While I believe their main concern is price per point, I do think number of points, loaded vs stripped, sold out resort vs actively selling, amount of interest in direct sales, international vs domestic seller, etc. are all things that drive Disney’s decision. My point is, there are so many variables that we will never know what Disney will use to exercise or pass on ROFR on any given day. About the best we can hope for is bet on recent historical data to get a sense of whether something will pass or not, which makes this thread so valuable. But even that can be a guess.
