We intend to start with 100-150 points at the Polynesian. After reading threads here I intend to purchase say 75-100 at $135-140 per point resale then add on another 25-50 points direct at $176 per point so we will have access to discounts on annual passes and access to special DVC previews and events (I understand these can be taken away at anytime). We already have a trip to Disneyland planned for the beginning of 2018 so we have time to be patient and wait for the right listing because we will likely not return to WDW for another year or so. When I do the math this averages our total purchase price to approximately 145-150 per point and there are several listings available at that rate for 100-150 points resale. So the downside to adding on direct is the second closing cost. I am hoping the discounts on passes, dining, merchandise from buying direct will make this up fairly quickly as a family of 4 and that is my reasoning to make the two separate purchases as opposed to just buying one larger contract resale. So for all you DVC experts please let me know, am I correct? Way off? Somewhere in between?
