Re: How to get rid of a timeshare you no longer want .... (by Marie M.):

There are much better web sites than Timeshare MLS.org to advertise your week. I have bought and sold over 30 timeshares in the last 11 years and I thought I knew all of the resale sites. But I had never heard of that one until "Sharon" posted the above reply. (I have to wonder if she has some financial interest in the site!).

I just took a look at it and I would have NO confidence in placing an ad there. IMHO, the site is very poorly organized. The procedure for checking inventory is tedious and arcane. I doubt if more than a handful of people would ever see your ad. The few ads I looked at were grossly over-priced! Experienced "shoppers" like me quickly move on to other sites.

You are now at one of the best sites in the world for trying to sell your timeshare--REDWEEK!

Read all the posts in the Redweek forums related to selling (or getting rid of) a timeshare.

There's a good article on the subject at SmartMoney.com http://www.smartmoney.com/consumer/index.cfm?story=20060804

There is also pertinent information at the Timeshare Users Group web site http://www.tug2.net. Look for information at the top of the "Buying and Selling" bulletin board.

Good luck!
