The VGF 2 pricing thread

[Sandisw]

Or...... The price is going to be $255/point.

I am skeptical because they are showing the new VGF in the 'limited availability' section on the website and not on the top.

My last second price guess is $225.

Except the put the graphic out and left out the pricing on purpose.

If it is going to be $255, it would have been left there…I think it will be lower and really hope it’s similar to RIV.

I want more points and DH is on board with VGF!!

I don't see the internet list option. Probably for the better.

I got the call from the guide. No news today but will now call as soon as he gets info. Didn’t have any idea when.

Let him know our interest will be based on price and incentives as we love RIV and will consider more there if the price difference is large.

Wow that was fast!
I wonder if they are using the interest to see where to gauge the starting price...

Correct if wrong but isn’t the add on tool for existing members only?

i dont think dvc has any expectation to sell 2,000,000 points to existing members. The primary sales target will be new to dvc buyers and they have no way to express an interest via the tool

I would guess they are not basing pricing for a half billion dollar's worth of points based on how many existing members stalked the site quickly enough to submit an add on request. We're all just doing their marketing for them by sending a bunch of people to the website to create their call list for them

Yeah, I’m not currently a member. When I look at the DVC site today, it looks exactly the same as yesterday. Although I did already reach out a while back requesting info once it’s available so they’ve got their market research from me too I suppose I still just see Riviera and Aulani on the main page.

Interesting. I see a general public VGF page that was there and then was gone and is now back again.

No I don’t think this will make a difference in price. What I am thinking. And just a guess here.. that they may be trying to see how many existing owners want points so they can compare to what they already have deeded to the current building

Remember, new points for VGf2 can not be used for any reservations before the opening date of rooms but the current points can.

So, if the demand from current owners is a lot more than what they could sell immediately, they might just wait until they declare new rooms and new points to sell to anyone.

But, if they can make it work, what a great way to spark some initial sales with current owners!!

And before anyone asks, IMO, it won’t come with a higher price for the privilege.

I do see that page again! You just have to navigate to it. For a few days on the main page, it was showing VGF2 coming soon. And I was getting Instagram ads. Then it switched back to Rivera and Aulani on the main page and the Instagram ads switched too. I now see VGF2 on Instagram ads again but main web page still shows Riveria/Aulani. I have a 7- month old who only contact naps, lol. So this is my hobby because scrolling through the news on my phone for hours a day turns out to be bad for one’s mental health

This link works for non-DVC members to get on the "sell it to me" list

 

[Wedgeout]

Fight your Add On Fever. Don’t show interest. Even if you are going to buy. Beat them at their own marketing ploy. Doubt they care much about current members. Just sales stats.

 

[RoseGold]

I've been sticking to my $275 prediction, but the new BLT pricing today (2/3) is the first sign I've seen of prices lowering. $197 for 300 points, existing members! That's crazy disruptive to the whole resale market. Why buy VGF resale for $190 or Poly resale for $180 when BLT direct is $197. And it makes no sense because Disney just did buybacks for BLT in the 170s and 180s. Maybe y'all were right and VGF is coming in near to RIV.

Disney is coming in hot with the competitive pricing, resale is going to have to dive to keep up.

Is that price only if purchasing 300 or more points? What is it if you want less than 300?

there are tiered incentives. the 200 point one and 250 are actually pretty significant too. clearly a change in approach from disney right now on the sales side.

Thanks. Still that is a hefty number to initially purchase. Will be fun to see how it all plays out.

True, but even for existing members, 200 points is now down to $202.

That is huge and brings RIV and it’s a sold out resort without a new 2 million points to sell.

Definitely going to be interesting going forward !!
