<font face="times" size="+0">this is inspired by DisneyBill's thread: How many points for 1st time buyers?

please vote for the number of points your INITIAL purchase was for. (basically the number of points you started with... don't count any add-ons!)

argh... oops, i made 2 mistakes in the Poll. the 5th line should say 151 points to 180 points. also the old minimum purchase wasn't 210, i think it was 190, and 230 suggested points. i'll PM a moderator to try to get it fixed. this is what happens when i try to post on the DIS while watching Survivor at the same time...

TIA!

(for anyone who does not want to vote, you can still view the Poll results by clicking here)

okay, commercial break. just wanted to add comments... on why the Poll is broken up in weird increments:

150 points = Current Minimum Purchase
181 points = Exact Cost of 1 Week in Studio Premier Season, most resorts
190 points = Old Minimum Purchase
230 points = Old DVC Suggested Initial Purchase
270 points = Minimum Current World Passport Collection Trade Cost for 2 Bedroom (also Exact Cost of 1 Week in 1Bdrm Dream Season, most resorts)
350 points = Exact Cost of 1 Week in 1Bdrm Premier Season, most resorts (also Exact Cost of 1 Week in 2Bdrm Dream Season, most resorts)


<b>umm... third edit: i think i have to rework this whole poll. it's not very well thought out... i guess i should go watch TV instead, and come back to this later.

suggestions are welcome, on what the best 12 options should be in this Poll. </b> </font>

We started with 450 at VWL, and added 150 more the very next day.

We now have six contracts, and my only regret is that we bought 450 on our first instead of splitting that into smaller contracts.

First contract at OKW purchased from Disney for 200 points in 1997. Second contract purchased through The Timeshare Store for 230 points at OKW.

Two of the best purchases we ever made!!!

Verbally purchased 270 - made my first add on for another 50 on the spot at the DVC Sales Centre at the Boardwalk whilst submitting the paperwork for the 270 - these were all at BCV - all this in May 03

Then we bought 130 VB points from DVC - this took us up to 450 points - this was in Jan 04

Then we bought another 50 VB and 163 SSR points in late Feb 04

Now up to 663 points total

I checked the 270 point box even though some may say we started with 320

thanks
