But was available to everyone. I would guess 90% of DVC members that bought in that early to mid 2000's, even late 2000's-still own and are basically staying on dues. These things were all offered during the time in question.
Today for under $10K (far less than most cars) you can get a week at OKW every year for no extra charge (by renting 1/2 your points-75), then sell the 150 points when you feel the time is right. Probably get your $10K back, or at least a big chunk of it.
Then get $150 each off the AP as well.
About $18K will get you a week at GFV every year, POLY for even less-maybe $16K.
Or about $5K can get you 75 resale points. Now in that case you would be also paying full dues of what..$400 annually?
$400 for a week at the BWV, around $50 a night.
You're not going to hear any anti-DVC arguments from me. It is far and away the best "bang for buck" option for frequent WDW flyers, and is currently the only tool offered to hedge against management's philosophy of large, YOY price increases on the resort side of things. Fact of the matter remains that for most, this is a moot point that does not apply. Nor does this help explain the massive, YOY price increases in every other category.
