Buying DVC Points

How should I go about buying more points for the DVC since I would like some more, maybe 50-100 points at a good price?

You can either call your DVC guide and let them know you'd like to buy the additional pts to add on or you can buy re-sale.

Buying directly through Disney would probably be more expensive but much more hassle free and you could probably get your same use year easier -- if you buy re-sale, you can probably get your pts less expensive but if you need to finance, you'd need to get your own financing and such.

drjny,
If you are buying as many as 100 points--you could do an add on for Saratoga Springs Resort (SSR). Currently, the SSR points are a little higher in price (they are 89.00, but the presale offer is $79.00 per point if you add on at least 100 points. You also get to keep your 2004 points). Even though the SSR points cost more, the points are good for 50 years--so the average cost per point per year is less than just about anything else you can buy.

Good luck with your decision.

-DC
