Direct DVC September Sales

[airjay75]

After reading the article, im wondering if PIT is slowing Riv sales down? Seems like Riv was doing really good in the first months of 2024.

I really dont see the motivation for them to give better incentives for PIT, they simply dont need to unfortunately.

Also the projection of when PIT is going to sell out would make it so that i could wait and see how we like LSL, but then I won't be direct for my next long WDW vacation

Since i know for sure we love PIT, I feel like I should just go with that

If you love PIT (which I think you do), I really wouldn't hesitate. Just decide on the right timing before it sells out. I wish I had loved PIT the way I do RIV - PIT is an easier decision because, even if you change your mind the next day, you can recoup the vast majority of what you spent.

On the PIT vs. RIV sales, yes, I think PIT definitely became the sales leader once it came online, but RIV has a long and complicated history. Had COVID never happened, there would never have been a PIT vs. RIV match up because RIV would be sold out by now. RIV, in addition to being the first restricted resort, is the resort that is most affected by COVID. It truly is the red-headed stepchild of DVC in more ways than one.

Yes im not even going to worry about incentives because im not banking on them getting much better.

March is my one year and im sure youll be seeing my graduation celebration thread I hope you will attend

The redheaded stepchild def has the best food imo. Can't wait to go back to Topolinos for dinner! We're doing the dining plan next year and ive been doing research and Primo Piatto is one of the best bangs for your buck on QS.

I wish I could stay in every hotel each time . Id love to do that kind of challenge. Stay a month in WDW and split stay every hotel. Exhausting, but satifying.

The extra years LSL would give you over Poly is worth waiting to see if you like it enough to buy imo.

I was afraid you would come at me with logic Imagine if I buy pit and then that lazy river is banging My wife loves nature. I love fancy hotels. This might be the life for us

I wouldn’t worry; it’s going to be a huge hotel! I don’t think you’ll have any trouble staying there not as an owner, much like at AKV. But that doesn’t change the extra years argument.

There is a strong chance my VDH contract will outlive me! It is possible I may outlive it, but by that age I’m really going to need my kids to be using my points, because I doubt I’ll want to deal with baggage and flying at that age.

So maybe buy your Poly now! And if at 81 you need more points, YOLO!

Maybe I should do direct at CFW to take me into the early 90s
