Winter Dec 25 - Jan 26 Direct Incentives

Heck, I just look a the board while I'm in line!

I try not to look because I get sucked in easily

Anyone planning to ride the fence on the incentives on a specific resort this cycle vs next cycle and close on the better deal?

Yes

My purchase of Poly is still in open contract status until later in February and the guide will rewrite the contract if it's better with the next incentives. We will close on the better deal.

I confess I was tempted to see about picking up Week 49 at CCV with the current incentives (we already have runDisney Wine & Dine week 44 there, plus weeks 47 and 48), but I really shouldn't add on (much as I love CCV and would always want more points there). Not just because we now have two kids in college, but also because we're holding out for Lake Shore Lodge. I'll likely try to grab Week 49 there, though December can be iffy if it's warm enough to use that lazy river. Maybe 4th of July week... ;-)

Well, we decided to bite the bullet and got 150 at CCV to add to our 100 resale. With magical beginnings I couldn’t say no to direct at CCV for $209 per point.

Congratulations!

When you consider their point chart, the true home resort advantage for popular times, and the long life left on the contract, I think it’s a smart buy, even before you consider it may hold up resale better over time.

Congrats! Love your new owner's graphic!

For those of you that purchased CCV during this incentive period, did they give you the D23 $500 discount? There isn't a sheet for that promo on page 1 of this thread, so wondering if they are allowing that discount for CCV

They did not give the D23 credit to me for 150pt ccv. My Guide said it wasn't available for that resort.

Thanks for the answer. That is too bad for you. I don't understand their reasoning on that.

 

[byurick]

I've noticed that seems pretty typical, unless it's one of the active resorts they often don't give any of the extra discounts like D23.

Same

No D23 either for us for CCV. He said the only incentive they could offer was the developer one and thats it

Love seeing all the CCV love this round of incentives. We own BLT resale and had been waiting on the right opportunity to get the blue card direct. We were ready to pull the trigger while we were on the Magic in December. The guide told us he had a guaranteed week 47 PVB, but we found out the unit was tower inventory, not legacy studios so we held off. We had been weighing CCV, too...because we really enjoy the resort, so after reading this thread, I went back to the guide to see what he had.

guaranteed wk 47 was ~140 pts, so by the time we add 25 points to clear the threshold, the 199 points for week 52 made much more sense. The difference is purchase price (~$7k) would be pretty quickly absorbed over the difference in rack rates for a week 52 room.

We are reviewing the contract now for our guaranteed week 52! Any thing else we should be thinking about or reviewing as the incentives period transitions?

Thanks, all! Maybe soon I can learn how to update my signature with ownership and info
