I have also heard that DVC is planning to up their purchase price from $75 to $85 per point in June. Has anyone else heard the same?

Yes, we received an advertisement for the new Beach Club DVC that will open this summer. They were offering a great deal for current members to add to their current "holdings". You could purchase 100 points at $75 per point, and Disney would throw in a rebate or a three night vacation at a deluxe resort. It also said that points were going up to $80 on June 1. (That is what I remember anyway, I threw it away. It could have been $85, but they usually only bump it up $5 at a time.)

Mickey I would also like to ask you if you purchased direct thru Disney or did you go thru a third party?

We purchased throught the
Timeshare Store. We purchased 270 points, and received an additional 380 points that were banked, enough for us to take two vacations. We also purchased at about $10 per point below what Disney was selling them for. There was no difference at all purchasing from a reseller or from Disney, other than the financing. In fact, all of our membership cards have the "member since" date as 1994, the date the points were originally purchased. I was totally satisfied with how they handles the transaction, and would do it again in a heartbeat. I believe it is the only way to go.
