The VGF 2 pricing thread

[sethschroeder]

These 3D tours are so neat. They need to offer these Matterport 3D tours for every single DVC accommodation on the booking Web site. I know the board sponsor's rental store has them (thanks to Pete & company).

They exist there are matter port tours for every single resort room category.

I have wondered how long it will take to distribute the 500 luggage sets to eligible buyers. Two or three days, maybe?

It took them 2 months to get me my last sweet sweet DVC backpack so...

Only if they came in with the last shipment of Figment popcorn buckets.

Well the price per point came in right where I was willing to purchase. I’m not going to add on here though. I have a later month uy and won’t get 2021 points. So for our stay I was planning on this year will need to borrow our 2022 points just to make a reservation. That starts off the contract in borrow mode and with all the restrictions on borrowing only half and that borrowing is a final transaction, I’m just not willing to pay that kind of money to start off upside down on points. Too bad- I liked the luggage and was all set up to add on today. I’m sure it’ll be a big money maker for Disney but just a little too much hair on it for me. Pretty bummed.

Its first 500 contracts at 125 minimum. That equate to at least 62k points. Nothing has sold that fast so I say they last awhile.

Yes I agree, in January reports RIV had around 466 or so contracts sold. So 500 over 125 will take some time.

And, I don’t qualify for the luggage because I broke mine up into 100 point contracts. I wasn’t going to add more points to make them 125 each (and I don’t want to have uneven contracts since I want to have one for each of my kids). Oh well! I didn’t really care that much for the luggage anyway!

I was tempted to bump up my 80 points to 125 points just for the luggage, then my husband reminded me of how much luggage I could buy with the price difference lol.

My husband wants to know what I think we can sell the luggage for on eBay. I kind of want to keep it but I’m sure they’ll be popping up soon!!

It’s kind of lame that you don’t qualify just because you split the contracts.

Don’t you still get the other incentives?

Wanted to add that I did get the permission for 90 days. My final payment is due June 1st, which means not having to pay it off until Dec!

I'm from Europe(not UK) how do I add on direct? Do I call or chat with DVC ? and is it even possible to add on direct if you are not located in the US or the UK?

Call your guide or email her/him. (If you don't know who your guide is, I think the website has contact info and someone will reach out to you.) They'll let you know if they're able to sell you points. I'm in Canada and was able to purchase with no issues today.

thanks I'll give it a try.

The correct term is actually current points.

This I find shocking - no current points for 1/2 of the UY's? That I think is unprecedented. Once the entire resort is open then the points exist. That Feb-June wouldn't get points until the resort opens is understandable. That the 2nd half of the year would not? It defies the system. I'll have to roll this around in my head a bit more but first reaction is that it gives DVD/DVC several months of inventory.

VGC opened in September 2009, the first use year was June 2009. I have April at BWV and it soured me on it. Of course, I regret it now when I paid $180 for resale 2 years ago.

 

[Deeleebaker]

Not sure if it matters to you but 1 dues are cheaper at VGF and 2 contract is 7 years longer

Yeah. It’s $1k less now but 400 more a year. More years (I’m already 55 so really not a concern for me so much as my daughter) but not getting 2021 points is more than a little annoying, especially since I messed up with 2020 points. I’m also a little afraid of keeping Track of points I can only use at AKL value/club and points I cant use at Riv. I really like being close to Epcot and HS.

If I got 125 at VGF and then banked to use 250 alternating at VGF and Riviera, I would have my resale to use the other years at any 1br, including value or club. But I think I could still do that, just without home resort advantage, by getting 125 at AKV.

Am I missing something? Will I end up with small amounts of points I can’t use or bank if I have two separate resorts?

My guide said there were 100 guides got 5 each. He’s made one sale and had 3 maybes and I was call number 18 for him today.

I dont believe you can add unless you're physically in the USA. DVC needs to be registered to sell within your country (and particular Canadian provinces). We are in Australia and I have to be physically present to add on.

Go into your dashboard and select the add on tool. If you get Rex, you won't be able to add.

 

[Soap_1984]

I added on and got a fedex notification already from dvc; it looked like a return label so perhaps they ship the luggage sooner than expected? I'll never use it, maybe the backpack only.

I added on in Canada they have a service for notary online even. Not sure if UK is different but all my docs came through docusign so it is possible while not in US
