    Offshoot Add-on-itis Poll: Do you plan to add-on? And if so when?

    It’s fun seeing everyone’s DVC journey. I was wondering how many of us have a certain plan regarding add-ons. For us it seems we’ve settled in to a state of possibly. Wasn’t always that way. After our first contract there was a firm plan of no more than 1 add-on contract. Now that we’re at...

    Breaking up direct contract

    I’m planning to buy direct at the Villas at Disneyland Hotel. Leaning towards 200 points. Would it be wise to break the 200 points into two contracts? For example: two 100 pt contracts or a one 150 pt and one 50 pt. I’ve heard some do this for estate planning. I’m mainly thinking resale, since...

    Aulani

    Looking at purchasing an Aulani contract as we would almost pay for the contract versus paying cash for an upcoming trip there. If we purchased 300 points at the current incentives we would get the steepest direct discount it appears. Also looking at direct because from what I’ve read here is...

    Direct bait and switch?

    Hi folks! My family and I have been back and forth on a DVC purchase (our first one!) for a bit and finally decided to take the jump. After discussing, we decided to get the first 150 points direct to get blue card status, with the understanding that any we purchased later would likely be resale...

    Buying Direct Promotions - Existing Members

    Hello, DVC had promotions for existing members who wanted to buy additional points for AKV, OKW and SSR. These promotions expired yesterday (Sept 8th). I'm wondering if anyone has heard if new Fall promotions were released today?

    Young DVC owners in their twenties

    I didn’t expect the comments to be so condescending! I was asking advice on point values, not my personal decisions! No more comments required. I don’t know how to delete.

    Buying a small contract direct/resale question!

    Direct Add-on Timing and Discounts after Initial Ownership

    I've been reading a lot about add-on purchases here since I made a first-time direct purchase this summer. Recently, a very interesting thread has presented what has been speculated to be a direct purchase at RIV of >1,000 points in multiple small contracts with immediate resale of some of the...

    Direct vs Resale?

    Hello! I keep going back and forth on direct vs resale- we are a family of 5. I was thinking the annual pass discount is pretty significant. What are your thoughts?
