Re: Purchasing a Marriot Vacation Club timeshare

MAny many Manor Club Plat weeks have passed on E Bay for between $7000 and $8000. A very few times, the $7000 might have been taken by MAR via ROFR. Many weeks were sold without ROFR kicking in on two top traders in SE Fl...both the Ocean Point Units ( Palm Beach Shores area) and Beach Place (Ft Laud) (There are some 3 bed L/Os at OP, but only 2 bed L/Os at BP. All Red via II....Silver weeks at OP and some Gold weeks have well under $10,000 At MBP, some gold red weeks were not stopped at $8000 and Plat were not stopped at $12,500. I haven't been keeping track of Palm Desert Desert Springs Phase One, but also believe you can get some pretty good Plat weeks deals there without ROFR (if it is done there). Just need to watch and wait....and offer less then what is posted. Two good people to watch via redweek listings (& myresortnetwork) are Joanne Koslowski ( poster here) and Seth Nock, and I think Christine...all realtors who have a good idea of pricing and ROFR kick ins....Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton )if they have it). You can even offer them less than posted pricing....you might be surprised. Some times the developer feels they don't want the week....have too many...but 4 weeks later they want a ton.
