I am looking to rent a Disney timeshare from Gary Dubin. Has anyone done business with him in the past?

I have not heard of this person but did look at Disney rental ads. I know nothing of point system they use but realize they can take so many days per points during the year because we almost bought their years ago.

What seems strange to me is the fact this person is a paying member and paid for two ads to try and rent only one night at two different Disney Resorts. Just seems like a hassle for just renting out one night and the night can run from Jan 1,2009 thru Dec 31,2010 at both resorts.

I did see down on the comment section he list other resorts and units for rent too! You didn't say what resort or size unit you were thinking of renting so I just went by the main rental ads of a studio unit for one night only.

Another thing that makes me wonder about some of these people are why they are members but never show up on search. I have to think they just runs ads and never post on here and there are many renters like this.

Just do what your doing here with checking this person out as much as possible and call the resort. Also make owner give you a copy of this years reservations and it shows he is the owner! As soon as he faxes it to you or mails it look up the phone number of resort reservations and call. Explain what your doing and give them the owners reservation number so they will verify this information is correct.

Just a little secret for you looking up the number and calling. Play it safe and get the resort main number and call them and they can transfer you to reservations. A couple years ago I heard of some scam artist that rented out more than one unit and sent copy of reservations to renters with phone number to someone's cell number like wife/girl friend and they would verify all information as the resort and it was false.

Hope it works out! PHILL12
