I saw this in the "fine print" and meant to ask you about these resorts.

Will you be getting inventory at The Grand Bliss & The Grand Luxxe?

This is an interesting offer - thanks for posting for us.

Mark,

The big question I have is what can the vacation cash card be used for? The $500 value is great, but... What can I spend it on?

I see they have that up now, when I posted it was still showing the old info... Not to bad a deal. Here is a question.

If I use it on a sell-off week, is the additional 20% discount computed in addition to any Membership Level discount we get, or after our Membership level discounts?

The additional 20% discount is applied to all membership levels, in addition to the already stated discount posted on the Sell-off page.

Hope this helps...

This represents a significant savings.

Let me rephrase, not sure the question was understood.

Lest say I have the 25% diamond discount for the sake of this example.

And lets say I was a $500 (non discounted price) sell off week, here is how the additional vs after would be different.

20% off after Membership Discount of 25%.

$500 - 25% = $500 - $125 = $375

$375 - 20% = $375 - $75 = $300

Final Price: $300

20% off in addition to Membership Discount of 25%

$500 - (25% + 20%) = $500 - 55% = $500 - $275 = $225

Final Price $225


Does that make more sense? It is always tricky when you are applying percentage discounts with more percentage discounts. How you apply them makes a big difference.

Example -
DIAMOND (Save 25%) $374.25
PLATINUM (Save 15%) $424.15
GOLD $499.00

Based on Marks statement - we would be entitled to another 20% off these prices

DIAMOND (Save 25%) $374.25 - 20% = $299
PLATINUM (Save 15%) $424.15 - 20% = $339
GOLD $499.00 - 20% = $399

Mark, could you confirm if this is correct?

[ctscribe1 Member Find all posts View Profile Close ctscribe1]

Updated my information but no.......

Updated information on profile, but no $100 discount card confirmation or enrty for I Pad ....I told Nathan about it but he said he wasn't sure. I did deposit a week to anyways. Have to wait for deposit to clear for any incentives to be active. This is my second deposit with SFX. Still haven't exchanged yet, but have request in. Hopefully soon we can search and exchange on line.

We will have to see. I hope that this is not the way it is being done, I hope it is combined discount as in my other example. Otherwise it means that the higher your membership level in SFX, the less the additional 20% discount is really worth to you.

If it is as you list, then it is really an effective discount of

Gold - 20%
Platinum - 17%
Diamond - 15%

Sorry, my wife always complains I am too much of a Math nerd at times. Tis just the way I am.

ctscribe - Thank you for your post. Your account is immediately credited with $100 when you verify your account profile. For existing Members, this can be done online when you login. For new members, after you are accepted as a member, when you login you can then update and verify information to receive the $100 credit.

Only if you deposit a qualified 2011 or 2012 week by Feb. 28, 2011... will you recieve an additional credit of $400 (totalling $500). This will be applied after your week has been verified with your resort.

Hope this helps...
