Then I think I would look at as what the value is of that resort or contract long term. As long as you aren’t overpaying in the beginning or if that resort didn’t get to a real low in price at one time (AK cough cough)
Yep, that's where I wanted to check my math, that they basically even out after 35 years. (or the savings on one would catch up with the other)
I'm also going to point out, you have a number of different resorts - so perhaps you like the variety of different stays. Aulani is nice, but I could see people wishing to try other Hawaiian islands or resorts. Might be worth considering a smaller Aulani contract just for a few days when you plan to be in Hawaii rather than a lot of Aulani points to where you feel committed to that one hotel. We actually did the Marriott next door last trip for 7 nights and had one (concurrent) night at Aulani so the kids had a couple days to play in those pools. Found it a pleasant change and would do that again - it has a more elegant and quiet vibe. Or maybe even do a different island next time, finishing with a couple nites at Aulani if it seemed important to the kids.
Yea, I'm not really looking to get Aulani points (direct or resale unless maybe subsidized), just SAP/+ specifically for use at Aulani, but that's where the math comes in, I might rather have (and the value could be much better if I just added-on) more BLT, or just a small SSR contract that I could use every 3 years.
Oh no, i don't have any notifications coming in, I select "no" when I make the saved search. I'd have seen it 100 times before i got to the email anyway. lol
hmmm so weird, the alert email I got is actually not a new listing, when I went to the site its 247 days old.Oh no, i don't have any notifications coming in, I select "no" when I make the saved search. I'd have seen it 100 times before i got to the email anyway. lol
Now if there was an app, maybe i might allow notifications.
But yes, i agree, if its a joke it should be 1 or less.
Well right now BCV has a bit under 10k points resale and total points are 3m. But that’s probably a resort owners sell at a much lower rate than others. .3% of BCV is up on the resale market today. I’ve heard estimates that 1% of DVC gets resold each year.
$10m? $25m? Mostly just wondering where it’s at and what point it would need to be for DVD to want in and create a way for owners to trade in contracts.
Hurry up! It’s going like hotcakes
That’s interesting. I am the opposite. I have “good enough to buy at list price” which probably 0.5% of contracts are listed for, and “too expensive” which 99.5% of contracts are listed for. Within too expensive there’s “close enough to offer what I want to pay” and “not even gonna bother”. So that’s 3 categories I suppose.
If it’s less than 50 points and you’re very sure you won’t need more later then I think just buy them from Disney. But for the truly outrageously priced ones like BLT or VB I would have a lot of trouble taking that advice myself.
In their defense, automated scraping of data in a consistent and accurate manner is REALLY hard and requires basically constant monitoring and upkeep.
Doesn't bother me really, thought it was funny when I went to the site I was looking and thought no chance someone bought it that quick! It was is outrageously priced and stripped
I wonder if the one that was 247 days old had a price reduction, so that's why it was sent to you? A few bucks off of an awful price to start would still look bad

Usually there is an arrow either up or down that’s how I know if it’s been modified. So I think it’s pretty clear already
