How important is it for you to stay in a Disney hotel when visiting DL?
I ask because for me it's a very different experience from WDW. In Florida I stay 2 weeks and prefer onsite, that's why I bought DVC. At DL if I cannot get the VGC it's not a big deal, as I stay 3-4 nights, spend all my time in the parks and to shower and sleep there are many off site resorts 5-10 minutes away that are perfectly serviceable.
This is to say: I would not pay the prices for VGC resale, staying onsite is not that important for me. When I succeed to book VGC with my SSR points bought for $50 pp, I still think if it's really worth as I could rent the points and stay in a cheaper hotel nearby.
Of course if you value staying in the Disney bubble at DL the high cost may be worth for you.
