Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by Gary S.):

Yes, I've done it twice. It can be a good way to acquire Destination Club points, because the week Marriott sells you will be "enrolled." That means it can either be used as a conventional week, or you can "elect" to use the DC points value any year you want. Thus, the best of both worlds. It would work best if the week is one you would like to use many years. That said, you should also consider buying resale DC points and resale weeks. Those weeks would not be enrolled, but they typically cost perhaps half of what they would cost when buying from Marriott. Most importantly, unless you are absolutely certain, you should hold off, do some research and then decide. The combo deal is pretty much always available. And yes, I am happy with my purchases. I also have purchased DC points separately as well as resale weeks. I have an extremely flexible portfolio, but I know how to use it. Ymmv. Cheers.
