Re: REDWEEKS NEW TIMESHARE EXHANGE PROGRAM (by Terry H.):

It is true that if everyone waited to deposit their weeks until you saw something you liked, the train would stop dead on the tracks. It is also true that waiting can cost you money (rental), points (Redweek), and trading power (RCI, II). That is the reason that I chose to deposit my week early with Redweek just as I usually do with RCI.

Redweek offers something special, the ability to combine two weeks worth of points, even over a two year period, and find something much nicer. I was offered, and accepted, 1800 points for my Christie Lodge ski week. I was offered 3000 points for my Marriott Waiohai week. If I deposit Christie again next year, I could go to Waiohai and still have points left over. Then I could maybe combine the leftover with the following years points.

Redweek also gives you the ability to buy more points with cash to upgrade if you will. This brings the value of different weeks up to even par.

The only way that this Redweek exchange program will work is if people, LIKE YOU GUYS, actually began to use it, starting with deposits. People waiting till the last minute could render this system useless.

I agree that people need to leave more detailed information about the resorts after use. I use Tripadvisor, as they sometimes have reviews like that. I do leave helpful information both on Redweek and Tripadvisor. Hope you all will do the same.

Good Luck

Terry
