RCI trade in to DVC

Thanks for the information everyone. I was just going to check on those weeks tonight and they're down for maintenance argh! We are on a weekly plan so I'm not sure those weeks might just be for points trade in. Oh man these timeshares are confusing!
These are points only. I don't have anything to check on the weeks side currently. IF you're with the week side, you should have an ongoing search for what you want.
 
Just re-checked RCI Weeks. Not seeing anything in your date range. Still have the 10/2 and 10/3 checkins -- but no other Oct.

Yes, please do use the Ongoing Search!
 
As others have said, it depends on how far in advance you deposit your week, what week you own, and where that week is located. Just out of curiosity, where is the week you own? I did not have to do a search when I deposit my Hawaii week, there were several weeks at several resorts available. Good luck!
 

We're looking Oct. 15- Nov. 7 for checkin dates. We're stuck on the week long checkin which requires a Fri, Sat, Sun checkin. However, for a free location to stay (points from parents) there's no complaining on anything. I know it's a shot to try and get in but I can always get last min. off property so I figured why not go for it!
Reposting ... can't see my earlier reply. Spotted the following Oct dates this morning on RCI Weeks:
  • BWV, 1BR with check-in on either 10/15 or 10/17
  • VWL, 1BR with check-in on 10/30
  • VWL, 2BR with check-in on 10/22
Did your open search book something? Given these new listings, if your open search didn't book something today -- it may not have enough trade power or meet other restrictions/requirements.
 
We own with hilton and were able to get 2 weeks back to back in 2bdr. I am so happy they are trading with RCI.
 
bwvBound,
How did you see those weeks. I've been checking every night and I haven't seen anything in the weeks deposit. I have two weeks. The first is:
Mountain Loft 59,691 pts. The other is Bluegreen Club 36 90,393 pts.
Thanks for the help guys. I think I need to set up an ongoing search for the Bluegreen Club too it looks like they only have one search going on.

It sounds like you've confused yourself. BG has 2 potential connections to RCI. One is through the weeks side where you must have previously deposited a week with RCI. The other is through the new travelers plus points connection. While you can search RCI weeks through that account, you will NOT see any RCI points resorts that have found their way over to the RCI weeks side. This is a rule of the system. That means the BWV 2 BR weeks I mentioned earlier would have been available to you. Don't waste your time looking on the weeks side through your BG points account, at least that seems to be what you might have been doing.
 
I'm pretty sure I've been logging in and looking at the Ava. On the weeks side. And I'm still seeing nothing. The points are listed when I go look at my ongoing vacation plans that's why I listed points. Not sure what I'm doing wrong... Maybe my week just isn't strong enough.

If you're looking in your weeks membership you should not have any points info listed on your exchanges. That membership number should be 9 digits with no dashes. If you have a BG points membership, that is a single digit likely starting with 8 followed by a dash. You can only see inventory in the weeks side through a weeks account but it may include inventory that has found itself from points to week. From a points membership you can only see points inventory and non RCI points resorts in the weeks side.

If you're looking on the weeks side and not seeing anything, you likely don't have sufficient trade power. What resort, unit size and week do you have on file? how far ahead of the week you gave RCI, did you deposit it. There really isn't a lot of BG inventory that will see DVC.

This is what I see when I log in on the weeks side of RCI. Hopefully this will explain where I was pulling points from.

The numbers you see are the number of resort available for you to exchange to. I don't have a deposit on file to compare to but going by my (and others) experience the last few years, a very good trader will pull close to 150000 exchange options. The lowest one I've had has been around 100K options and that was a studio. I doubt you'll have any chance of exchanging in to DVC with either of those options other than for under 45 days possibly. No harm in trying, just not much chance of success. Maybe bwvBound, Brian or others have deposits they can compare with to give you a better idea. Are you a travelers plus members? If so, you have access to the RCI points side as well.

I've pasted my results below. Of these, only the Grand Pacific Palisades sees DVC -- and I'm only able to see weeks beyond Aug 2010 based on my deposit's travel window. The deposits titled "The Seapointer" are from a non-rated resort in South Africa and are not expected to match DVC.

Edited: I'm currently only seeing one week inside MMluvsWDW's target dates ... but plenty of other weeks in either Sept/Nov.
  • BWV 1 BR checkin: 15-Oct-2010
 
Thanks Dean, That makes more sense. Well I guess we'll just wait and see what happens. I guess if worst comes to worst we'll be off site again. Oh well at least I'll be there right!

You should likely put in for the best option that work well for you off site now. In your exact situation I see no reason to wait. Better to get your top choices off site than take your chances in this situation.
