I have this persistent cough...

I might still be awake...I've popped a 2004 Shiraz as I relax on the DISboards. There will be another one Monday when my settlement company receives my funds, then for sure when I get the "you closed" email!!!

Then more waiting...!

First allow me to offer congratulations to Colonialtink, barney, fourkids...have some

Tammy...you need Funny how it all works out!

OK...got the call for my money at 1240ish...had some work errands to run, get to the bank at 230. There I sat and sat and sat...accepting apologies from the nice people trying to help me. I'm getting so I leave. I had another errand to run anyway. Call DW...get me the big boss number. Call the big boss, leave a message, I'm ready to explode

Yet I remain calm...It's now 345...kids are getting off the bus, I'm not home. Bank calls again. Big Boss got my message, said just give me the money AND a $20 gas card for my trouble.

Got the money...straight to the PO, handed the overnite envelope to the PO person, and woo hoo...the check's in the mail! Grandbuddy, I need to take my medicine...care to join me?!?!?!?!? Anyone else?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I'm with ya, got one in front of as we speak or Email or post or whatever it is we are doing

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Well unless we hear in the next hour I guess we are alone! Oh well. By the way our contracts are almost identical except that we have SSR instead of VWL. Wonder if they are the same seller. Same UY too. All 06', 07 and '08 points. We actually have a renter who wants our '06 points if we get them in time. At this rate I am thinking it won't happen. we'll be out that money. Oh well. You might try to rent yours though. We found someone and we offered them REALLY cheap. $3 a pt. with the understanding tht we would have to close first. They are fellow DVCers and said that if it worked they would take them. I figured it was something. We'll see what happens though.

I was hoping you would find out today as well. It seems that most of these pass through but it is such a relief to have an official ROFR. Thanks for the info on the extra points. Actually, if it all goes through my husband and I are going to try to get a reservation at any resort in May. It will be a bonus trip. I am not going to count on it. Good luck!

[mommacat56]

could someone pm me on who this person is who gets starred and the website so I can check out their resales. Please

Me too, please! Always seem to watch the resales even though I think I have enough points for now (I know...NEVER enough points, NEVER enough)

[tammymacb]

OK, just in from a brisk walk as swimsuit season is around the corner..

Congrats to those who passed today...I guess I'll go to Disney again next week!

 

[mommacat56]

YEEE HAAAA
We are going through the process! I can't believe it.
I mean we have to wait until Disney says yes but....



I got my wife to agree last week, I just sent her flowers to her job from her two daughters saying Thank you for Disney Love my two daughters.

Doing the happy dance, everybody at work thinks i am crazy!!!! :

Crazy like a fox! Let's see what they say when you have your first trip booked...ah, the green eyes of envy. Welcome and good luck!

 

[mommacat56]

OK folks, I need help QUICK!!

Opinions, please!?!

Just got a phone call

50 BWV $87.00 PP
50 banked from 2007 and all 08 and 09. June UY.

So, this contract is $5.00 PP less than my BCV, is at my home resort and has double points!!!!

I have until next week to cancel my BCV without penalty. I could cancel it ( and I know it would sell in a day ) and get the BWV and have all my eggs in one basket..

AAAACK! I have the BWV on hold, said I wanted to buy them, but have to decide ( quickly ) if I want to cancel BCV....HELLLLLLP!!

I think you should do BOTH! I know that is no help at all, but you'd be right there with me. I couldn't decide between 'em, so I got both )

 

[mommacat56]

I think we're all just gluttons for punishment and should stop looking at the new listings on the resale sites.

AMEN sista'!

 

[mommacat56]

Hello again!! I found out a few minutes ago that we passed ROFR. We now have 240 points at VWL with a June UY. We are very excited. We have all of 2007 and 2008 points as well as 2006 points that will expire May 31st. Probably won't be able to use those points...what a waste. Now on to phase 2 which is a much better list to be on...hopefully.

Congratulations and welcome to the "waiting to close" crowd!

Don't let the points go to waste. If you can make a reservation to use them up (anywhere that takes the entire point total) with the checkout date before they expire, you can then post the reservation on the DIS rent and trade board. That board sees alot of activity. Of course, that assumes you close and get the points in your account before then. Just my opinion for whatever that's worth!
