It's pretty stunning how much OKW/SSR direct was sold, almost as much as CCV.

Clearly, there's direct demand at a cheaper price point. ROFR has to pick up to keep this up.

When do y'all have access to the points? Immediately or only after closing (months later)?

Direct points - immediately. Soon as DVC processed the contract to send to me (even before I signed). I had them within a few hours.

Resale? It feels like forever and ever, especially now. ;-)

Yeah I’m convinced tomorrow is the last chance to buy CCV with any incentives.

Is there a way to know approximately how many points are remaining on CCV before they "sell out"?

Is there a way to know approximately how many points are remaining on CCV before they "sell out"?

Yup already did the math for approximate range:

66.4k left before sales resumed
1.5k in July
16.2k in August
5k in September (so far)

22.7k sold since reopen
43.7 left

We can approximate 5k-15k are in delayed closing or have not been recorded yet.

We likely are sitting between 28k to 38k left before its sold out. @CastAStone is making the prediction on Disney knowing the resort will sell out before the conclusion of the next sales incentive and doesn't want to deal with that issue.

Basically yes. Poly never saw incentives again after “the big” price increase from $176 to $220 (which was announced mid-incentive, and the incentives were lower for Poly than CCV and Aulani that time). CCV had its big price increase 2 incentive cycles ago. I am speculating that if it’s got 30K points left they’ll say close enough we can sell the rest without incentives, but also just going off of how much they’ve deviated from Poly already (which was partly COVID driven).

Don't you get 2057 contract for OKW direct? Those are harder to come by on resale.

You do. OKW has been one of the most popular sold out resorts for some time. It’s cheap (relatively speaking), it has a clear benefit vs resale (15 years), and it’s a nice resort! First WDW Hotel I ever stayed at, fantastic rooms.

I just bought direct and two resales OKW. Had a specific $ allotment, so the two resales (2042) give me enough pts/years to enjoy OKW (2057) with the family and then just me and the hubby in our very, very late years using direct. I strayed and bought an AKV, too, for 100$ a point which dented my OKW original goal.

Self Evaluation:

In your defense, part of your idea was that DVD would not have enough points to get through entire promotional period. This new round of incentives is only scheduled to last about 7 weeks when recently expired promotion lasted 12 weeks

Does this bring us down to like 36K points remaining for CCV? Looking forward to when it's sold out - Go baby go!

CCV deluxe studio (shower) week #16 for 162 points

Ah yes, for that magical... googling...

... Mid-April studio? I guess this is occasionally Easter week, or maybe it's spring break for this purchaser?

I find FWs to be fascinating.

 

[jennypenny]

We bought our fixed week because it's our wedding anniversary. We plan on adding a second fixed week during spring training when our extended family travels to Clearwater.

You never know why people choose the week they do.

 

[Duckbug.Ducktales]

oldest effective date was 9 Sep 2019 recorded 8 Sep 2020 (365 days )

Whoa. Wonder what happened there.

I'm curious whether RVA is still selling roughly on par with how VGF sold (though considering the closure)

 

[Prince John Robin Hood]

I'm curious to see how October and November go. My guess is we see a drop off but not sure how much. I'm also curious to see how percentage of points sold shifts. Maybe RIV sees a nice bump when CCV sells out?
