[Q=william471] My most recent developer pricing information is from last June......this from direct sales... Annual Gold Units currently at $28.5K are going to $31.9K Annual Platinum Units currently at $31.5K are going to $36.5K Price increases to be effective June 15, 2006. I believe, but do not know, that Platinum Plus was ~42K last year. I'll check again when we go this summer. Figure about .5-.65x for resale, with Platinum units commanding the higher end. We've seen ROFR at the ~14K level for Platinum, but it isn't consistent. No ROFR info on Gold AFAIK. All pricing is for EY. I don't believe Marriott is selling EOY there anymore, but could be wrong. Pat[/Q] FYI Also, if we are talking about Newport Coast Villa's, Marriott has recently changed their marketing strategy by switching from from an every other year trade for points option to an every year trade for points option. That puts Newport Coast Villas among just a very few properties in the Marriott system where an owner can trade their week for points each and every year. I understand that some people are mainly buying weeks there to accumulate and use the points. Chuck
