Backpack Gate?

I spoke to guest services in chat just now who thinks international dvc owners do not in fact receive a welcome gift. She's going to email when she finds out for sure!

I had a feeling this was it. Do let us know for sure, but I wouldn't think they would ship internationally. While it should be fine for UK purchases, for buyers elsewhere it may never arrive. I know when I send postcards in the mail to relatives in South America and Eastern Europe, they seem to arrive only half the time!

So if you care for the gift and happen to be buying onsite, do as @Stitchescape did and ask for it right then and there!
 

Hey There!
I can only speak from my own personal experience. I bought it in January and have yet to get anything other than my points and a dues bill. There will be no backpack. There will be no chips and salsa, no crab legs, and no cell phone pop socket, whatever that is.
 
We have several direct purchases, including this year. Never got a thing (except a pin this year). No backpacks ever, or anything remotely like that, lol. My sister's family once got a hat. We get the big zippo from DVC in terms of swag.
 
You totally need to give your guide a call :)
Our guide stinks. We've actually requested a change to a different guide because he badly botched a simple cash deal contract in March. Took us weeks and DVC leaders to sort it out. So probably not a shocker he doesn't give out swag.

For multiple direct contracts, I would totally bug them about getting something more than a pin ... if I find where we put our backpack, I would send it to you! We only purchased one direct contract and several resale - all this year - and we only got the one bag - so I guess we were lucky? :)

My family purchased in January as well. We didn't get anything so I called our guide. I got my backpack a couple of weeks later. Definitely reach out, get that gift!

Might be because you reside in Canada. Not sure they ship those to International members. Sorry if that's the case.
