texanlawyer---$144-$7985-50-BLT-Oct-99/18, 50/19, 50/20- sent 1/16, passed 2/19

Just got the good news. When I pulled the trigger on this before the 1/19 deadline, I wasn't worried about ROFR since the price per point was on the higher side. I got nervous the last few days because it was taking so long and I saw on another forum that a similarly priced contract was taken, especially since this contract had all of the 2018 points plus almost all of the 2017 points. Now I just need to close this and get the points in my account so that I can use the 2017 points before they expire.

Congratulations That's nice to have such a loaded contract.

Wendy98---$143-$4271-25-BWV-Dec-16/18, 25/19, 25/20- sent 1/25, passed 2/19

I told DH that the contract passed. He didn't even remember we made an offer and were waiting.

Now just waiting to hear about my BLT...

Congrats! That’s too funny
 
Just had a frustrating conversation with our broker. He first said that our contract was not actually submitted until Jan 30th so we were not outside 30 days. When I pushed back and told him I had email confirmation from them that it was submitted on the 15th, he suddenly reversed and said “oh, oh yes it was submitted on the 15th”...so now I have concerns that they didn’t submit our contract in time to be grandfathered if it does pass. Broker then said that since it’s taking longer than 30, the contract will most likely be taken.

I’d really love for Disney to put me out of my misery already!
Save your emails saying you were sent to ROFR on 1/15.
Perhaps your broker just slipped and said the wrong date, or was looking at some one else’s paperwork, or perhaps they dropped the ball and didn’t get it to ROFR until 1/30 and that broker is now hoping DVC takes it and then they won’t have to explain their mistake to you.
Good luck, it looks like several folks are beyond 30 days waiting, so if it was sent 1/15 you should hear soon.
 
question... if Disney exercised ROFR on a contract shouldn't I be able to look that up in the OCC records? I should find a transaction between the seller and Disney, correct?

I think the answer is yes but not until after the closing date on your contract. Since they have to buy on the exact same terms as your contract it closes then too. Then takes some time to process over at the Comptroller.

Well we put before the 19th in our contract so they would be shooting themselves in the foot to not get it in. We sent all paperwork and deposit on 14th so I feel confident it was done timely on their part. We have successfully bought and sold with the TimeShare Store so I have confidence the ball is in Disney’s court at this point.
 
jodybird511---$115-$8012-60-AUL-Feb-0/18, 20/19, 60/20, 60/21- sent 2/15

Looking at the current thread, as well as historic threads over the past year, I'm seeing that no Aulani contracts have been taken? Is that right? If yes, thoughts on that? B/c it's not sold out yet? B/c Disney is having a hard enough time selling the points it already has for Aulani? Just wondering.... We ended up going with a higher priced contract b/c it was small and the use year we wanted.
I was texting my husband about making an offer on this contract and you beat me to it! It went fast. :)

??? I was referring to SimbaAndSparkles’ post that their broker at DVC Resale Market initially said they sent the contract 1/30 then corrected that to 1/15 - I wasn’t commenting on the reason for any of the other over 30 day waiters, I expect there was a rush just before 1/19 thus the longer than usual ROFR.

Ah that makes sense!

I did not intend to take it personally sorry I came across a little Donald duck! I know alot of new bidders read this and I was just saying the sponsor of this page has always
been great to work with the Timeshare Store. We did buy and sell thru them in the past and I am confident they did their best for us with the crazy rush. Now on 35 days and
I do plan to call today will post the reply I get.
 
I called yesterday and she said still nothing! Uuuggghhh. 34 days.

She told me she posts everything on Facebook, however I do not have Facebook! Yes, I am probably one of the few people in the entire world that does not lol
