The Timeshare Store, Inc.®-Contract submitted to Disney for ROFR by 3/20/11

Actually the email is "sent" before they are posted on the website, however, all 16,000 recipients do not receive the email at the exact same time. Apparently the email goes out in alphabetically order by email.

May be part of my problem, although I don't always receive e-mails from TSS. DH is also on your mailing list, so I know...I don't always get them. Too bad, he doesn't check his more frequently...

I've pretty much given up...finding something BEFORE 3/20.
 
Well, we're testing the 3/20 deadline. Signed contract yesterday (3/18), deposit was received by closing company today (3/19). Contract was also submitted to Disney for ROFR today (ahead of 3/20 deadline).

As an add-on we certainly want the points to be treated the same as our existing points. This was a real win for the sellers, I would have negotiated the price had we had the time. But to try and save $200 or less and risk missing the 3/20 deadline wasn't worth it to me.
 
That is what I thought was happening and the reason it takes about 2 hours for me to receive the email. I am one of those that have called several times in the past 6 weeks only to be told the contract was already "sale pending". Another factor could be the way the recipient's email provider receives the mail and then disseminates it. I have been told by an IT person that it will be handled differently depending on whether it is AOL, YAHOO, GMAIL, etc. and what they do before forwarding the email. Some of the factors are whether the provider scans for a virus, packages the email in blocks before passing on, has ample bandwidth or something as random as a surge of email received at one instant. In addition, the sender's speed could be affected by some of these same factors. I hope Jason hasn't opened up a can of worms and 1000's of people open new email accounts on their list that start with AAAAA! :lmao: Maybe a purge is in store? ;)

Don't worry. This frantic selling is over. The deadline is tomorrow and I already see a lot of contracts just sitting on the sites. Things will be back to normal soon and I am guessing that the prices, driven up by 10-20% this past month or two, will go back down to the norm in the next week or so...

One of our contracts was listed on 3/18 and had a potential buyer within 3 hours. Timeshare store was very busy but we managed to get everything signed and returned!

Same for us as buyers from another broker. Posted 3/18 and we jumped on with everything signed and submitted in less than 24 hours.
