The VGF 2 pricing thread

[nuhusky123]

At low $200 I would buy gfv, at $255 Disney can take a hike

I won’t pay that price. I’ll keep my current contract and augment with paid stays at swan reserve

but I will continue to maintain dvc has to price in low $200s to sell with base price at or near riv. But hey perhaps over at dvc they all failed economics class and think they can sell this.

Well if 255/ pt ends up being the opening price, maybe then we will get microwaves and mini fridges after all

For 255 toilet better be made out of gold

I don't know that this adds any useful info - but I just had this pass ROFR today. I've not heard of any VGF that Disney has Taken in the last few months (last posted was taken at $160). I always thought they might buy one here and there just to show a buyback number? Maybe I should "help" with their marketing lol. Sadly, as a Buyer, I can't help but think that Disney just CLEARLY showed they think I'm paying too much ...

$185-$20209-100-VGF-Aug-0/20, 9/21, 200/22, 100/23- Split 2021 Fees 50/50- sent 12/10, passed 1/5

noob question, what did you pay per point?

noob question, what did you pay per point?

185 before maintenance fees and closing costs

 

[TinkAgainU]

noob question, what did you pay per point?

I "paid" $185 per point, but if you take my total of $20,209 divided by 100 you get my "real" cost. Closing costs vary by broker (as do deposit and cancellation terms) - and since it has 100 past points "banked" some would adjust the cost, saying I could sell those extra points for $16 or more each if I'm not using them. Who pays the management fees can vary too. Asking prices are often adjusted according to how many points are available ... I'm a Newbie too, but pretty sure that is all correct.

If dvc were really going to sell for $255 I’d assume they would have bought your contract and make a good profit flipping it

who knows what dvc is doing. We shall find out shortly though

Even when they were selling at $255 they were only taking back VGF contracts in the 150's.

Disney has only rarely bought back anything priced above 70% of direct pricing

 

[Paul Stupin]

I know you want gfv to be priced high to protect your investment. I don’t think Disney sells squat at $255 and I also see this price for a sold out resort.

law of supply and demand all but requires dvc to adjust the price down unless they are cool sitting on 2,000,000 points for five years

I agree. My bet is that it’s a glitch.

 

[nuhusky123]

I noticed on dvc there is now a gfv video. Not sure if it’s new, new to me but I grabbed this screen shot. Note fine print on typical cost. If we assume 150 point minimum buy in $31,000 is $207 a point

 

[nuhusky123]

Also gfv is no longer in the add on tool page. ill double down price is $207. Video reinforces my prediction I believe

 

[Wedgeout]

Wow! Advertising the full kitchen, washer and dryer in larger units, yet these new points are all part of the hotel studio building expansion. I’m starting to feel for owners on availability, getting one bedrooms or larger with more points use competition coming. “Could” expire in 2062. Maybe an extension in the future.

 

[nuhusky123]

The could language was interesting. For full video go to dvc home page. Scroll down for a box on gfv

clearly the add on tool today was a test in advance of gfv going on sale and the price was not updated. im Sure IT had no intention of this going into prod, but they fixed the mistake quickly

Back onto the Add On Tool.

Surprised…now let’s see if they add incentives to bring it down when they start official VGF2 sales.

Me too. I will just add more RIV points direct and hope that I can get in to the resort at 7 months

I would pay slightly more for VGF to have a nome resort advantage…as high as $220..but not interested at $255.

gfv is no longer on the tool, they took it down

Posted my other response before seeing this…this leads me to that conclusion too!

ETA: But, at least this may mean we will see sales start soon!

 

[TinkB278]

But the 150 point minimum will be for nonmembers right?
