We closed on April 9. We got a "New Member Handbook" and a "Vacation Planner" book. Now, the interesting thing is that we got them with the sticker on them showing the name of the guide I spoke to when we were considering purchasing SSR. He called once after I purchased resale and I told him "Thanks, but no thanks...we bought a BWV resale". He said, "Great....enjoy it, and let me know if you ever want to add on." I didn't really know whether he would actually be "my" guide, since we didn't purchase from him...but, I guess he is!!! I think
DVC is kind of particular about their record-keeping. We could not attend our scheduled DVC sales tour the last time we were in WDW (Dec. 2002), due to my DD having to be hospitalized on our vacation. Anyway, I was too distracted to think about "cancelling" our tour. When I called DVC in late Feb 2004 to request a DVC information packet, the person who answered the phone said, "Oh, I see you made a reservation for a sales tour, but did not show....might I inquire why?" Needless to say, I was more than a little shocked that 1) they kept me in their system, and 2) they had me down as a "no-show".
Anyway, so I am pretty sure that the two guidebooks I received were from my guide, and not DVC. I wasn't really sure of that until I read these posts. My guide (I guess he really IS my guide) said that sometimes the guides read this website. So, Gib McCain, if you're reading this...."THANKS...and, I REALLY want to add on"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
