Price of BLT going up

This may be posted on here already, but just wanted to confirm any rumors. My husband just got off the phone with our guide. The price of BLT is going up to $120 because they want to slow down sales. At this point, there is no discussion of the other properties increasing in price and there isn't any talk of better incentives. Of course that can change at any given time, but as of right now, the guides aren't being told of any other price changes.

It was funny though because he said to my husband "your wife must spend time on the DIS boards. They always know stuff on the DIS before we do."

Next time I won't bother calling him, because you all have the info first anyway

It is also posted on dvcnews.com so I think that it is a good bet it will happen. They mention that it will go into effect October 4th for new buyers with the possibility of giving members an extra few weeks to add on under the old price.

Its too bad for me as I was planning to add on another 50 points in January. I can't do it before then so we will have to see if it is worth it.

It's not a rumor, it's true. We were at a DVC function this morning in Garden City, New York and we were told by the DVC salesmen that the price will be going up to $120 as of October 2009.

They want to slow down sales...what, they're making too much money right now? How lucky for them!!!

No kidding. It must be nice in today's economy to be able to pick when and how to control sales.

Bought 50 more of BLT today. My guide noted that although they are happy about Bay Lake that sales for AKL and SSR are below expectations. Discounts in Oct will be greater for AKL and SSR to have them "catch up to sales for BLT" Also he noted that they are ending their (Disney's) fiscal year. New pricing is at the start of a new year for them.

I found it all rather interesting.

Greater discounts for AKV and SSR?
