Purpose of this forum
The purpose of this forum is to provide a “classified ads” section in which members can seek to connect with each other to rent, trade, and transfer points, accommodations, etc., at their own risk. Please note the disclaimer at the bottom of this thread.
Any threads/posts construed as commenting on rental practices, experiences, and so forth, are inappropriate for this forum. It is not meant to be a forum for discussion or debate on rental practices, how-to’s, and so forth. Any off-topic threads/posts are subject to being moved or deleted without notice.
In keeping with the “classified ad” nature of this forum, all threads will be automatically deleted two weeks after the last post to that thread.
General Questions
To provide folks with answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about renting points (and because we know that many people rent points as a “test drive” before taking the DVC plunge that many of us have taken!), we’ve written a series of articles that attempt to provide people with the answers to some of those questions as well as explain the ins and outs of the rental process. Think of it as a rental primer.
You can find those articles in the "Renting Points" section of our resource website, located HERE (http://www.mouseowners.com/info/browsecategory.php?c=120).
For ease of reference (i.e., so that folks can figure out how many points they’ll need for a particular room/villa at a particular time), here is a link to the points charts for the DVC resorts (as well as other, non-DVC resorts): POINTS CHARTS (http://www.mouseowners.com/info/browsecategory.php?c=7)
If you have questions about the rental process after reading the article/primer, you may post them in the “Member Services” forum.
If you have questions about the DVC resorts, trip planning, or Disney in general, please do not post them here, but in the relevant forum elsewhere on the boards.
Categories of Ads
In an attempt to keep some semblance of order on this board, five categories of ads have been developed. To insure that your ad is placed in the proper category, please take the time to read through all of the categories. Ads that are not placed into the proper category WILL BE DELETED (not moved) without notice.
Reservations Wanted: Please post to this category if you are looking for a reservation at a specific resort within a specific timeframe – in other words, if you are somewhat lacking in flexibility in your vacation plans. Example: “Wanted: Beach Club Villas Studio, 4/10/07 – 4/17/07”
Point Transfers Wanted: Please post to this category if you are a current DVC member who is seeking to have another member transfer points into your DVC account. (And please remember that you can either transfer points into your account OR out of your account in a single UY: You cannot do both!!) Example: “Wanted: 200 SSR points”
Confirmed Reservations for Rent OR Points Available for Rent or Transfer: Please post to this category if you are a DVC member who either has confirmed reservations to rent OR points that can be utilized to make reservations and/or transfers. Examples: (A) “For Rent: BWV 1BR Boardwalk View, 4/10/07 – 4/10/07” (B) “For Rent or Transfer: 250 VWL Points”
Points Available for Transfer Only: Please post to this category if you are a DVC member who needs to “get rid of” points, but will ONLY do so via transfer to another member. (If you are also willing to rent the points to make a reservation on behalf of a renter, please use the “Confirmed Reservations for Rent, etc.” category and indicate in the listing that you are willing to transfer said points. In this instance, please DO NOT use this category, and DO NOT post to both categories.) Example: “For Transfer: 150 HHI points”
Trades Available or Wanted: Please post to this category if you have DVC points or confirmed reservations that you are willing to trade for confirmed reservations or points with someone who owns at a non-DVC resort, or vice versa. Also post to this category if you are looking for a particular trade (at a particular resort, time, etc.) Example: “Wanted: OKW 1BR, 4/10/07 – 4/17/07 for some type of Hilton Head accommodations, summer 2007”
Other Posting Guidelines
If you are posting a new thread, please indicate the particular reservation or number of points available/wanted in the title of your thread. Specifics and any other relevant information, however, should be placed in the post itself. You also should give respondents a means of contacting you (and vice versa, if you are a respondent).
Once your transaction has been completed, please edit the title of your original post to add “CLOSED” as the first word, and then a final post indicating that the transaction has been completed. A moderator will then close the thread until it is automatically deleted. TO EDIT THE THREAD/POST TITLE: click the “edit” button at the bottom right of the first post, then click the “go advanced” option. Simply add “CLOSED” as the first word in the title box. Then, choose “Save changes” and you’re all set.
Remember that posts will automatically be deleted after two weeks of inactivity. In order to keep your ad active, you must “bump” it to prevent it from being deleted.
If you do not receive a reply to your thread/post, DO NOT post another thread. Simply bump your old thread. Repeated thread/posts that ask or offer the same thing time after time will ALL BE DELETED.
