Re: Dropping of Marriott to VRI (by Bob W.):

I just got on this section and saw your note. The problem with Marriott was going on for a long time. I don't know where you have a unit, but I have owned in Cedar for over 23 years and have not really been happy with Marriott since they took over. With the general work that has been done with the complex and the enhancements that have been made to Cedar and Aspen by the individual boards, I don't feel that we have lost value.

I've only been an owner for six years (Unit 103-Cedar) and only bought it for the Marriott trading power. Immediately after the switch to VRI, I cannot trade it for a Marriott property like I used to. I also cannot sell it as no one even wants to pay $20 for similar units on eBay. In my case, this was a purchase 'gone bad'!
