A marketing tool to justify retail pricing and establish a two-tiered membership.What Have the Direct Purchase Benefits Been?
Apologies, allow me to clarify, I meant the ongoing benefits that direct purchasers get vs. resale purchasers.
i.e. this year:
Moonlight Magic
Annual Pass discount (Platinum for price of Gold?)
??
I guess I'm trying to see if it's worth cost for Direct purchase.

What are the 2 different member IDs?The major resale restrictions were put in place a few years ago by then SVP Potrock. He created the extras so he could take them away from resale buyers and wave them in front of prospective direct buyers. He also came up with the two different member IDs.

One for resale DVC owners; one for direct purchase. They're different colors.What are the 2 different member IDs?
I did not realize that. That's a bit weird.To the original post: Perhaps it's just semantics, but the only actual benefit you get from buying DVC is a reduced rate on a nice room if you plan on visiting Disney often over the next few decades. Most other things granted to direct purchasers are perks and as such can be discontinued or removed at any time.

Don’t you need to be direct or grandfathered to book the member cruise?
I’m not interested in cruising so I haven’t paid attention.
As others have mentioned, the benefits can be changed, so I wouldn’t base a buying decison on the prospect of receiving them.
