ROFR Thread April to June 2018 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

[Beesknees6]

I’m trying so hard, I almost made an offer on another contract today

Me too... thankfully someone scooped it up. My husband would not have been happy

 

[disneyeveryyear]

I agree with Shontell. I'm not even certain how much I worried on our 1st ROFR but the broker actually sent a few things during it that passed the time. After that on subsequent purchases it became more of a surprised when the email came. I had already done my work finding and negotiating and nothing more to be done.

I know there is nothing to do, but with the speed that was previously seen, I thought I would hear an approval within two weeks (based on my purchase price). So now on day 19, with very little happening for the last two weeks, I have to learn to be patient.

Could you reformat that with the link on post #1 so it can go on the list?

Congrats on the deal.. I hope it goes through!

Thank you I hope it goes through!

Boo! I'm sorry. It really stinks that the only people hearing so far this week are getting bad news. Disney, what's the deal?!?

Right! Does anyone have some good news? I think we could all use some at over half way through May.

I still don’t get what they are doing with all these buybacks

Fingers crossed for you !

I still don’t get what they are doing with all these buybacks

I honestly have no idea. There have been a lot of theories:

1) They want to use the SSR points as OTUP to entice new sales at CCV and then Riviera
2) They need more inventory to sell because CCV is selling out faster than anticipated
3) They are trying to push all resorts above $100pp
4) The drunken monkey has been hitting the sauce a little too hard

Haha. I am going with #4!!!

 

[motherof5]

Here we go with take #2

A little higher but slightly better value with my crazy math.

Sending pixie dust your way

 

[motherof5]

Don’t lose hope. We passed on day 38.

Wow. Congratulations. Never heard of someone waiting that long

I wonder if it's to drive the prices up since it is known that SSR has the best price value.

Sorry to hear that. I was hoping they would be done taking SSRs.

 

[NewbieMom]

Fingers crossed for you !

Thank you! I really want this one. I hope they'll let it go.

Sorry to hear that. How annoying they made you wait almost the full month too!

Drunken monkey is either having a bad, bad trip, or is very badly hung over.

I wonder if it's also #1.

 

[Mumof4mice]

I think #3 is likely. Just have to remind ourselves that dvc controlling the pricing protects the resale value if we ever decided to sell. Personally I'm treating the point purchase as a luxury splurge; not factoring the possibility of being able to recoup the cost in my "is it worth it" calculations. But I suppose the potential safety net is a bonus. (stay positive… glass half full…silver lining… day 20 and getting super irate!!)
