We purchased both our contracts as resale, but before they made the new rule. So we can use our points to cruise. We've traded to RCI twice (both times to give our children a honeymoon) and I wouldn't do it again. I just don't have enough points to go around! If you do decide to trade to RCI, please remember that these are Not Disney Properties. Your experience will not be the same as if you'd stayed on a Disney property. You could compare RCI to staying on property at WDW vs off property in a nice timeshare resort. It's just not Disney!!! I'm not interested in the cruise idea, so I can't help you there. We definitely saved money by buying resale!Hello, I am from Fond du Lac, WI. We just got back from a stay in early March. We are not currently DVC owners but are very interested. I have a few questiosn of you if you don't mind.
First is did you do direct buy or resale. Reason I ask is the research I have done is you cannot use resale on cruises and that is someting we are very interested in.
The second question is do most of you use your points only at Disney or do you trade in for RCI. Reason I ask is as much as I love Disney I do want to go other places but not sure if DVC is worth it if we are not going to Disney every year.
Thanks!!!!
