JayJay.... With your knowledge of all the ways one can squeeze value from the T/S, it seems even if you kept a low cost one, you would be able to use it to full advantage. I know some have maint fees that aren't too high.

We owned a couple of timeshares that had reasonable maintenance fees, however we no longer care to stay anywhere for an entire week.

We saw all the areas of this great country that we had dreamed of (Sedona AZ/Grand Canyon, S. California/San Diego, Las Vegas NV, San Antonio TX, Colo. Rockies, Key West/Florida Everglades and many more) when we owned timeshares. There's really not anyplace else (far off) that we care to see since we have moved to the mountains.

We still take trips but they are of short durations of 2-4 days within driving distance. We'll be going to Charleston in September that we rented from an owner at Redweek. We're still timesharing, but in a different way, by renting and helping those that want to recoup some of their maintenance fees.

We will, from time to time, fly to Florida ($39 one way from where we live) in the future and stay in a timeshare that we have rented (we still like Mickey and Minnie :o) We flew to Orlando last November and stayed in a timeshare, so our timesharing days are not over .... we just don't own any longer.
