I did this last year for a November trip - it's the best bargain around!! We stayed in a room w/ a rack rate of ~$260 for $105, including $25/night for "extra housekeeping." (When you are a
DVC member or renting points from a member, you only get housekeeping every 8 days, plus "trash and towels" every 4. On vacation, I want the beds made and bathroom cleaned for me!

)
I posted a points request, and within literally one day, I had three emails from people willing to rent me their points. Totally painless process. Give it a shot!!
