We bought in early 99.....but we were at OKW in 96 and 97 because my sister was a DVC member. We had the GV each time for the family . After that, as Rich would say, the decision was made to buy at OKW!!!!!
We bought at the BWV in August 2000, and we are just making our first trip home this July! We have used points at HH and through the Disney collection, but this will be our first actual trip to the BWV! I can't wait!
We bought at the VWL after staying there for cash on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Stayed there for points on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. February 2001.
I bought BCV in 3/02. I'll be visiting BCV in July and September but my first stay there isn't until November 7. I stayed at BWV April 21-25 on rented points, and it felt like home.
We purchased in Dec of 2000. We banked our 2001 points and just got back from our first time home. We stayed at BWV for 5 nights and then went on a 4 night cruise.
Bought over the phone in September 1999 (Boardwalk) after a March 1999 stay at OKW with friends. Stayed at OKW in May 2000 and Boardwalk in December 2000. Same in 2001 & 2002, 5 DVC trips so far!
