I would only feel safe renting from someone I know too.
Price two rooms at AK for 8 days and see if it's more or less than $3000 and you'll know. The villas at AK that sleep 8 are the DVC rooms. I do know it will cost you a lot more to book that same room through Disney than to rent points from a member. That $3000 is just a guess but you'll need about 300 points so it's close.

You can post a request but you may also have to go through all the offers as well.

I don't know how it works but there's a site that is run by a DVC member and he rents points out for other members so I am sure he would have enough points for you because it's his business. If you want that information I could pass it along too.
