I actually get all this. The issue? WHO OWNS THE POINTS?
ANY DVC property - if one OWNS POINTS - the owner may rent them. It's in the contract. PRIVATE parties do this on a regular basis.
So - if WDW gets stuck with POINTS, not owned by a private party? Yup, they can RENT them - just like anyone else
.
So - this occurred because WDW OWNS POINTS at the affected DVC property. Just like any owner? They can RENT them - to anyone they choose.
But there is good news....
WDW does not WANT to own those points. They want to SELL them. This scenerio tells us that WDW has points available at the Classic Villas at Wilderness Lodge, or other "sold out" site
"Sold out" is BOGUS -they have points, they want to SELL them.
This is EXACTLY how my dear wife, and I, bought INTO VWL (OK -Bolder Ridge). WDW had points. They did not WANT those points. We negotiated. Oh yes, they TRIED to sell us something else.... our answer was NO. And we reached an accommodation.
