I wonder if Disney would buy back my OKW points

[drakethib]

and trade them for SSR Points?

I think I have heard of someone doing this on these boards or am I just looney?

Disney doesn't "buy back" perse. You can offer your points for sale to a resaler, let them take their 12% cut from it and maybe have Disney buy it through the ROFR process. Disney does "buy back" some, but at a severely reduced rate (like $55/point was what I read from CarolMN).

It seems to me it is easiest to just keep what you have and book at SSR at the 7 month window instead.

From what I've read on these boards, Disney does buy back contracts BUT at a substantially reduced amount from what you could get in the resale market. Last I saw here, Disney was buying some contracts back at around $55.00per point.

Oh I am quite happy with OKW, I was just thinking about the extra 12 years that I could get out of the deal.
