Re: WARNING - RE TIMESHARE EXCHANGES (by Debi Z.):

I bought low and exchanged into post season ones that were above my exchange and have been having a wonderful time with exchanges. I go on the off season to resorts I want to explore, and every time I sit down with a timeshare salesperson they can't beat my deal and give up. Even with paying an exchange fee its cheaper than their asking maintainance fee.

I also bought low (mid-February, which was the cheapest week), but in a resort I really like, and go back to often. If I want a different date, I can exchange within the resort, or exchange to other resorts via timeshare exchange. I worked out that even if I exchanged my week every year for 30 years, it would still be cheaper that paying for high season. It is true that I pay maintenance, but luckily my resort maintenance is relatively reasonable.
