Re: Timeshare Points vs. Weeks

This can be true. When I used to own points I had 42,000 annual points at my home resort and could get a 1BR Gold Crown in Southern California for 30,500, then a year later RCI changed the point values for S. Cal. to 46,000 for a 1BR Gold Crown and I no longer could get there in a year without borrowing points. Another thing to watch out for with RCI Points is the fees that RCI keeps increasing for nightly stays and then if you stay less than 7 nights the resort you stay at may charge you a housekeeping fee which can range anywhere from $25.00 (I paid $65 for a 2BR for 3 nights) and up depending on where you stay -- call the resort before booking and ask them how much or if they charge housekeeping fees for stays less than 7 nights.
