2017 Points

Does anyone know when the points chart will come out for 2017?

And when will I start seeing 2017 points for rent on Vacation Point Exchange?

Thanks!

There is at least one person listing 2017 points for rent on VPE now. You can't tell by the listing headers, but if you click on and read the ads, you will find them.

Fasttr,

When did you buy a Grande Ocean? I recall you were thinking about one, but I missed the actual purchase (or had forgotten it...). What did you end up buying? Belated congrats if it's been awhile, that is a beautiful property!

Best,

Greg

Hi,
Does anyone know when the 2017 points charts will come out?

Thanks

Except for those times when they decide really re-assign the point values, as they did recently - I wish that somewhere on the charts they would list the Week Numbers. We all have access to charts that have the calendar weeks numbered - so I go thru the points charts each time, and write in what numbered weeks they are. Then I can scan across and see - pretty much - what dates it is going to be in the future. I would not BOOK anything until I saw the official ones - but at least we could sketch things in. I think I will give this a look right now. I know I started it - and then got distracted. Makes things easier to find, the more info you have.

Thanks!! We bought it late last year....you may recall THIS thread when I was contemplating it. We got a great deal, we love the resort and are looking forward to making it an annual spring or fall trek for many years to come.

Congrats on the purchase, I'm glad it came together. And I do remember that thread -- Marty really nailed it when the time value of money.

Enjoy your new week! (and are you done shopping ;))

Best,

Greg

It appears the completion of the 2017 Points Chart is getting closer. At THIS link....it now says it is Under Construction where before, it just said that the page could not be displayed.

Using the Destination points is new for us. Would you go to the classified section in TUG to see who has points to rent? Or am I totally off base and someonw can direct me.

I like the fancy new font for the location of the resort.

Thanks for posting this!

Maybe it's like Festivus?

It did seem to be a feat of strength to get it posted this year.

Perhaps it was all of the airing of grievances that made it happen!!!
