I wonder if this has anything to do with Developer Points going into RCI? Either way, even for a large resort like OKW (my home resort), is it like 20 rooms in August. Overall a pretty small overall percentage of OKW rooms.

I wonder what is the average number of RCI trade outs for DVC Members per month?

Not seeing a thing in RCI Weeks (RD##). Looks like most inventory must be in RCI Points (DV##). Bummer...

They are under weeks.

I wonder if this has anything to do with Developer Points going into RCI? Either way, even for a large resort like OKW (my home resort), is it like 20 rooms in August. Overall a pretty small overall percentage of OKW rooms.

I wonder what is the average number of RCI trade outs for DVC Members per month?

When DVC was with II, I never saw more then a few units a day deposited into II.

TomandRobin,

I've seen so many of your posts so I'm pretty sure you'll know this answer.

What exactly does dumping into RCI mean?

Still not seeing them. Looking with my father-in-law's units. One is a 2 Bedroom Diamond Royal Palm Beach Club (Gold Crown in St Maarten, though I think it was deposited rather last minute a little over a year ago - don't know if that makes a difference) and the others are lockoffs at Vacation Village of Bonaventure. I didn't think the Vacation Villages would pull DVC, but I thought that RPBC might.

These are units that are currently available for exchange in RCI.

Did you go down to Lake Buena Vista to pull the weeks? Go to Florida, then to the city, and see if that works for you. Or type in "disney" in the description (keyword} near the bottom. It will bring up more resorts than you want, but they're alphabetical. It worked for me.

Also, one other thing, when I look in the directory, it has two designations for each DVC resort. Take Saratoga for example. It is listed as RD06 and another listing for DV06. The DV06 has the RCI points logo out there next to it. That's why I was thinking that these were RCI Points deposits instead of RCI Weeks...

It would help if I became familiar with RCI, wouldn't it?

Typed in Disney, got 70 resorts, but the only one that started with DIS was Discovery something or other...

Other thing that is weird is that I can see both Hiltons and Orange Lake, but not DVC...

I'll never, ever use an RCI exchange and was really disappointed that DVC dropped II for RCI. We stayed once at Vacation Village at Bonaventure, albeit not in the newest building. It was a real dump and no where near the quality of DVC. If I ever want to use an RCI property I'll pay cash for the place vs. degrade the value of my points. We paid $199 for the week at Vacation Village for a one bedroom unit and it wasn't worth it. I hope others have a better experience than I did at the properties being offered. I guess if inventory is being dumped into RCI then it's based on members wanting the RCI exchanges.---Kathy

Well it's my FIL's place at Vacation Villages. I've never been there, but from what I've heard, you're probably not too far off the mark...

Royal Palm Beach Club on the other hand is a beautiful resort. Of course, it was on the DVC II list as well...

Your FIL may also have the new building at Vacation Villages which appeared much nicer and modern- it was being finished when we were there a few years ago. We were in one of the newer buildings out of quite a few- there were areas older than the one we ended up in that were likely worse- at least they appeared that way from the outside. The main draw there too was golf and I don't play golf so I did focus on the quality of the furnishings, cleanliness, decor, etc. I know RCI owners who have said the same about Vistana- some buildings are worse than others based on when they were built or rehabbed. I'm just not taking a chance with my points, esp. when some of those properties can be had for a very low cash amount. I'd imagine the premium locations such as the one in St. Maarten would be more costly and harder to reserve w/o an exchange. ---Kathy

I was thinking about this.

It looks like DVC is depositing monthly into RCI. There was a big burst in early Jan, then nothing new for the rest of the month, and then today's big burst. But, they seemed to deposit daily into II. I bet if you added up all the daily sightings for 30 days, you'd get somethign close to what we saw today.

Those of you who aren't seeing it---for January's bunch, you needed an absolute top-demand week to trade with. (Note: top demand doesn't necessarily mean gold crown.) I'm not sure if the trade power for this bunch is a little lower or not---this is a bigger deposit, so possibly.

Edited to add: DVC is also still pretty new in RCI--there may not be a backlog of ongoign requests to snipe deposits before they show up in general searches. Most of the larger units in II were taken by ongoing search---that's how I got all of mine, and the ones I passed on almost never made it into the daily leftover pile.

Keep in mind that the average II member possibly knew already they could put in a request for Disney so many were taken up prior to them getting the sightings. I am sure there are a lot of RCI members that don't even realize they have the chance for DVC units. If so, they have only had a month to put in requests.

I'm still wondering if my Kings Creek unit can pull DVC with RCI. It did with II. Anyone out there have a unit they can search with?

DVC has dumped a TON of weeks into RCI today!!

I have never seen so many Disney weeks deposited at one time!!

WOW!!!

Thanks for posting these!
