The "Waiting for ROFR" support group thread

[tammymacb]

Ed, is that the price in dollars.....or pounds!

 

[Tigger & Eeyore]

OK, my paperwork is supposed to be here today or tomorrow, we'll see how that goes...

I tried posting this once but don't see it - so forgive me if it is a duplicate

HOPING YOU HEAR SOMETHING TODAY

 

[tammymacb]

Thanks so much! I'd really like to have a member number on contract #1 before contract #2.

Susan, I've cruised with just about everyone but Princess. So far, RCCL has been my hands down favorite.

My trip would either have to be, a DCL cruise to Alaska, or a trip to Hawaii, I've always wanted to go to both places, but haven't made it to either one.

Hopefully DCL will make it to Alaska someday.. and in another 5 years I will be sitting on the beach in Hawaii at DVC , I can not wait!! I have cruised Alaska on Princess it is very nice. I think I would do a Disney Adventure trip to Ireland if $$ was not an option.

Good Morning Sister, who never visits this thread anymore!

Hi everyone,

Haven't checked in for a while because it's soccer season for me (I coach a HS girls team). Good luck to all the newbies. BTW, don't know if anyone mentioned it yet, but our thread now has more posts than that "other" ROFR thread. I guess they are the "other" thread now! (in all seriousness, though, Donald does an awesome job over there, and it's invaluable for those looking to buy resale. This is way more fun, though.)

Pam,

Did our old contract get through? I didn't see you on the "Waiting" list on the other thread - I'm hoping it worked out for you. I did a quick look here, but didn't see one way or the other.

Donald's thread is invaluable with its knowledge. I know I've studied it trying to figure out if I got a good deal on my points.

We all just come over here to flap our lips..

Speaking of "Good Deals"

I didn't even make an offer on the BCV contract. Just agreed to full price. I guessed that with '07 points and such a small contract, the seller wouldn't budge much and I didn't want anyone else to steal it...Not really sure if I got a "good deal" or not. ( But I'm excited about BCV so I don't really care, either)

Hey, that works out to less than $220, per person, per day. A bargain when your independently wealthy like myself.

 

[tammymacb]

You and me both, brother!

 

[tammymacb]

OK, what DVCs are we dying to try?

I'll use BWV for December, because I absolutely love it.

I'll use BCV for a kids summer trip where we can use the pool. ( I wouldn't use the extra points to stay there unless I could swim )

I'm really excited about seeing the Savannah view at AKL just because I think it will be awesome

OKW...just 'cause it's so laid back. I know I'll love it...

I give you credit, to be juggling two of these nightmare fun packs at the same time, I wouldn't want to do it. I just want to get through the first one.

I really want to stay at VWL at Xmas time, and at AKV with a sav. view. Going to WDW at Xmas time is what got me hooked in the first place, and I hear that WL is awesome.

I think I would like to do something like this, you said to anything right:

How many points do you think I'd need.

I like the way you think! That's an easy one; the %#@ that Minniekissedme says that I need to buy!!

Hopefully DCL will make it to Alaska someday.. and in another 5 years I will be sitting on the beach in Hawaii at DVC , I can not wait!! I have cruised Alaska on Princess it is very nice. I think I would do a Disney Adventure trip to Ireland if $$ was not an option.

I have been to the Marriott Ko Olina right where DVC is going to build. It is really nice!! Hawaii was a great trip but man was that a long plane trip!

BTW, did you guys know there is a formal night on our Sept cruise? I wondered since there is on the 7 nighters. I had not posted on the cruise thread in forever so I checked in there this am. So much for packing light...

 

[tammymacb]

I'll still be packing light.

This girl isn't much of a dresser upper...( Though I will bring a black dress )

I have stayed in Wilderness Lodge but never a DVC. I am excited to try them all!!

I have been seeing a lot of availability on II with my Marriotts. This am, I could have actually gotten a 2 bedroom immediately for this fall. I am just not sure what I want to do with that week and I don't want another trip that close to the cruise since I am buying for 5 - w/2 cabins.

So let me see, first trip will be to HHI next March for DH and I. The list of where to stay at the World would probably be; VWL, SSR and BWV although I hear BCV is great too. VAK would be neat but, I have to admit, not my favorite theme. We went there for dinner when we stayed at WL. It was ok. Maybe I would feel differently if I hadn't been staying at my fav Disney resort - WL.

Did you guys hear about the arrest at the Orlando Airport?

Me either. My black dress is long enough that I won't need panty hose!! (I personally think they were invented by a man!!)

Oh comon' HR! It must be kinda like having kids; what's one more! (Which is why I only had 2, 7 years apart!!)

Exactly, Tammy's having twins!
