The VGF 2 pricing thread

[Bjaiken77]

RIV is our hold at all costs contract. It’s connected to our blue cards at 125 points. We’ve been lifelong Disney fans, and I can’t see us ever selling that one. Plus, I love the resort.

VGF2 seems like a pretty safe investment. I didn’t have the best experience at VGF on my first and only stay, but I’m hoping that was just an anomaly. At this point in the game, there are only a handful of resorts that even make sense for us. VGF2 is one of them if it’s priced competitively.

I guess it all depends on incentives, too. I don’t want to buy a ton of points, but sometimes the incentives make you feel crazy for not doing it. I passed on higher incentives at RIV had I bought more points, and I regret doing it. Of course, that’s always easy to say after you’ve financially recovered from dropping a ton of money.

I need it to be in the $210-$225 range. At that price point, I’m probably a buyer. I’m out at $255.

I agree. I am very excited about the addition, but no way would I pay $255. I don’t see how they could do that when that was the sold out price. Now that there will be about 2m points for them to sell, seems like that price is unlikely. And I think the people on these boards are probably a group that would pay more than the average Joe. Most of their consumers aren’t super fans on boards, etc. I don’t think those buyers would pay 255 pp. The minimum buy in of 150 pts for new contracts would be almost $40k. That’s a tough sell.

just got a call from my rep that it should be soon. It was an unsolicited call saying to expect an email later this week that will gauge interest. He doesn't know exact sale date. He doesn't know price.

I heard the guys on the bus were letting people know! I’m surprised it was a guide this time.

It’s interesting that the ONLY time I felt that was during the recent AUL / RIV / BWV deal in December but I won’t buy RIV because of the resale restrictions, I won’t buy BWV because of the 2042 expiration and I’m concerned AUL as SAP is a bad idea because we will ALWAYS have to wait to 7 months. If we get decent incentives for VGF and no resale restrictions, I may buy more points than I originally intended.

I bought into the AUL deals as we intend to stay at AUL at least every other year, but yes … they are tough on the 7 months for everything else. Was a hard incentive to pass on. Ended up doing a 500 pt contract, wish I split it up into 250 point agreements.

I wish DVC would just put us all out of our misery and release the VGF2 prices!

Do you know how the releases typically work? Do they announce a price and date that sales will start? Or does it all happen on one day (announcement and sales start)? Excuse my ignorance. We’re going to be new owners and I haven’t really followed new property releases in the past..

At this point, I have not seen any declaration of rooms so sales can not begin until that happens.

I think we will see price and starting date first. And hopefully it will be this week!!

Just to be clear - we are hoping that we get a VGF2 announcement tomorrow, right? We don’t know that will happen. I just was curious if this has moved beyond speculation.

As has been said about a jillion times now: don't the units need to be declared before they can start selling them?

 

[Bjaiken77]

I think people (I can speak for myself) are just hoping for some information.

Sounds like that is the correct process. But no need to get rude about it. I’m a novice to purchasing DVC and was simply asking. I haven’t read every single page of this thread.

I wasn't being rude, and I didn't direct the comment at anyone in particular (and definitely not you). This is page 58 of this thread, this discussion has been going on for months, , and my post was #1,154, so I'm not sure why you think I was speaking directly to you (I certainly didn't quote you).

I think Disney could announce a starting sales date and an opening price without actually declaring units.

Still speculation that we will hear but the info from a guide saying an email would be coming this week does seem to indicate at least we might get at least something like a price and when they will start.

Will sales start Thur, probably not. Perhaps but probably not for reasons stated

could they announce pricing and a sales date. Yes more likely than sales starting, may not happen but sure would make a ton of sense given aul/riv goes up in price and new pricing sheets will be published. publishing something more concrete about gfv makes all kinds of sense Thursday

could dvc do none of the above, sure
