Is DVC for us???

Hi I'm new this whole point thing sounds confusing! I did a tour at Saratoga in 06 and have been saving since. I want to buy DVC and all these abbreviations now have me more confused! We usually go in Sept. B/c of the free dinning. We also asked about dinning options if you are a DVC member. I love character dinning and always make reservations ASAP! But the sales person didn't even know if you could get DDP or if there was a discount for it. We are a family of 5 and soon for a couple years we'll be a family of 6. I wanted 350 points and wanted to buy them cash or at least half down so I could go any time of year. I also have a friend who said she usually pays 250 a mo. for hers but then the resort did an upgrade and she had to pay 600 for that month! Does that happen often? Is it a good idea to buy through DVC or a resale place? I'm confused and curious! Very interested though! Thanks

You can get any of the Dining plans and still make those ressies ASAP. you also don't get free dining when the public does. There is no discount for it or MYW tickets for the park. There is never a month where you pay $250 for this month and $600 for that month. It may change yearly but never month to month. It also only changes by pennies per point for the year. New or Resale is a personla preference based on how you want to finance and what resort you want to buy into.
