25 Points at BLT-Limited Time?

[mikeandkarla]

If anyone really wants a small BLT contract (less than 100 points): Buy 2- 50 point contracts. Total is 100 points. Keep all incentives (Developer points or cruise), Put 1 of your 50 point contracts up for sale through TTS. Now you will have to pay about a 10% fee to TTS, but the incentives you get to keep should still keep you ahead. I would think a 50 point BLT contract on the resale market should sell for Disney's full asking price of $112. Just a thought.

25 points add-on... that is tempting...

This would work out great, but right now, they are not letting you do this. Your contract has to be for 100 pt minimum, unless you fall into the category of being an owner who bought before the 2010 points chart was released--then they are allowing for the 25 point add-on.

I tried this just last week with my 100 pt add on. My guide said I could not do 50/50. I obviously could have complained and fought it and maybe it would have gone through, but was not worth the trouble. From what I hear, I am not the only one who is being told that.

All you have to do is call and commit. It's sitting there waiting on you.

The 2010 DVC resort point charts were released on or about January 25th. That was the 11 month window for reservations that could contain dates in Jan 2010.

I don't own at BLT, but I'm glad for BLT owners. I did mention that I thought DVC should allow BLT owners to do this when I sent DVC a letter regarding the new point allocation.

PS. We were in Boston the weekend of January 23 to 25 and that was the weekend that the new charts came out.

are we allow to sell it now if we want to ?

 

[CarolA]

I don't see how they can stop you from selling once you close.

And if people thought those BCV small contracts were "gold" I am beginning to think these are going to go very high....

 

[cheezNE1]

anyone called their guide this morning to confirm if this is true yet ?

 

[Judy WI]

I just called mine and she is in Chicago until Monday.

I'd be willing to bet an inordinate amount of money that the first post in this thread would be a dead giveaway.

didn't mean to knock you... can't get a hold of my guide to add some. you did say it's limited time....

That's was my interpretation but I may have read too much between the lines. I posted my guide's e-mail to me verbatim (short and sweet) on the second page, I believe.

After re-reading it post-haste in posting here on the forum, I can't tell if it's a permanent waiver for owners or not. Some here have spoken to their guides and I think they have been told it is for a limited time and for a limited set, even; of BLT owners. Specifically, owners that purchased BLT before the 2010 charts came out. My guide didn't spell out those details to me because in my case, it wasn't necessary (I purchased the second day).
