Can You Negotiate On Price?

if you go that route -- you have to use gold coins as payment. Pretty sure that's a rule.

I guess I can go with pennies... you guys still have those down there don't you?

I still want to call my guide, say “I will buy my 150 points, pay with cash right now - what type of deal can you give me”

I would do this with a riviera contract as this property is not selling well (from what we’re hearing)

It's not like buying a car. Its more like buying something at Walmart. Your not going to negotiate with the cashier at Walmart on the price of the fancy, Walmart branded toaster.

you'd need way more than a pillowcase for $700,000 worth of pennies.

there's nothing stopping you from doing that. give 'em a call and see what happens.

My advice,go home think about it for 50 years while investing that money and if you still want it then go right ahead.

Wonder what the response would be?

The answer will be a big NO -- they offer the price that they offer. There might be incentives if you buy a certain amount of points. So with that it doesn't sound like Riviera is right for you. On the resale market there is much more flexibility in negotiating prices so you might want to start there.

Considering the interest rates that they charge, I suspect offering cash will underwhelm them...

You might be surprised at the number of buyers who do pay "cash". It really isn't a big deal to them and as mentioned they make more off the financing. So it's more like they let you pay cash but prefer you wouldn't.

If the buyer defaults on the financing they get the product back and sell it all over again as brand new - actually for more than brand new. Cash is not king - Disney has lots of cash.
