We're heading down to our floating week, Lawrence Welk Villas on the Green, and I just know that they're going to want to take us on a "tour" to try to sell us into the Platinum Point system.

I'm trying to be armed with as much info as possible. Could anyone tell me how many Welk Platinum Points are needed for:
- An original Villa?
- A large vs. small one bedroom @ Villas on the Green?
- A large vs. small one bedroom @ Mountain Villas?
- Booking a two-bedroom Villas on the Green for one week?

I absolutely cannot imagine what they could say to make me want to give up my floating week lockoff at Villas on the Green, let alone pay for the privilege. But I don't want to be surprised by *anything* they say.

Thank you to anyone who can fill me on trading within the Platinum Points program. If you don't have time for all my questions, I'm especially interested in how many points it takes to book one of the original Villas.

Kind regards,
Toni
