I use a lot of my DVC points for the Disney Cruise. My understanding is that I cannot use points I may purchase through re-sale for booking cruises. For this reason alone I stay away from re-sale purchases.
That being said, I completely disagree and do not think Disney Vacation Club should be able to place these restrictions on owners. They already have their money and on top of that, they are willable and transferable but not saleable.....grrrr
I agree with you about the current restrictions on resales. But I wouldn't rule out resales for that alone if you also want to stay at WDW. You could pay for a lot of cruises for the difference in price between direct and resale. Just sayin'.
