This type of thing is among the items that I think have a real chance to drag down the price they can charge for the new Disneyland DVC in the current economic climate. As said before, there is a lot of time before the resort opens for the economy to improve. Little doubt this current downturn will be in the rear view mirror when it goes on sale, but the mentality of the consumer coming out of economic downturn takes much longer to change. All of the things I was willing to ignore about the property before, come to the front of my mind now.
I, also, think the value of points of other resorts on the resale market will play an outsized role on on sales at this resort. The number of people I have heard say they were planning on selling some of their existing contracts to help fund a new DLR purchase is amazing. A slumping resale market won’t move those people to the buyers column at DLR.
