Having bid on a 30 point contract at BLT and have it accepted, I received the paperwork by email, downloaded it and went to the library to print it (my copier broke several weeks ago). Reading the instructions, it stated that the $1,000 deposit could be payed by check or credit card but the contract would not be sent to Disney for ROFR until check cleared. I sent the paperwork in by regular mail next morning but received a call from the sales representative that, by Florida law, she needed me to scan and send by email the contract back within 24 hours of receiving it. This would involve me having to go to an office supply store to do it, which I told her that I could do after printing another copy of the contract, signing it, and going the next morning to Kinkos. I received an email that night from her, saying that she had expected the contract back by then. I emailed her back and cancelled the contract because I could not send it back in a timely manner. Is this standard policy for all DVC resale companies? I had hoped to have a resale purchase by my Christmas trip to WDW and, at that time, buy a 25 point contract direct. I think that, instead, I'll wait until late fall/early winter and see if either prices decline or there are more small contracts to choose from. That 24 hour deadline sounds too much like the standard timeshare pitch that the pitchman makes that their offer is only good for today. It almost (but not quite) makes me want to buy direct.
