Distressed sellers- good time to buy?

I know very little about timeshares, point systems, deed exchanges, etc. My family and I are currently in Hilton Head at a Marriott Vacation Club resort and having a wonderful time. We were discussing the possibility of owning something, but we really like the variety of going different places at different times, etc. Thought about going to the presentation here, but my wife said it may be a better (and cheaper) idea to look for a resale, especially with the economy not really chugging along yet. Is that correct? Any tips on what to look for/what to avoid? I am going to be doing some reading and research, but thought this might be a good place to start. Thanks!!!
