Except now, if you as a BLT owner couldn't book at 7 months, you could book elsewhere. Under the alleged proposal, you could not.
Ok now even more confused, Wasn't Doug talking about direct buyers booking at their home resort at 7 months.
Basically Missyrose has pretty much summed it up. If this comes to pass basically DVC wants to make sure that resale purchasers are not buying points that are selling for much less than what Grand Floridian and more than likely Polynesian will sell for.
They are after all a business that only makes money with new direct sales. It is their only income. In order for them to keep expanding they have to have revenue and they don't get that from a resale.
If I could buy a brand new car for the price of a used car at a used car lot, of course I would never go to the dealer and buy a new car. I do agree with Doug that removing all perks from resale purchases seems like a better place to start, especially the discount on passes, etc.
