Assuming that often repeated assertion to be valid, it certainly offers some insight into the immediately downward value of any given timeshare once it next becomes a product in the "resale" market. ====== Very true, but isn't that rather like the way a new car drops in value as soon as you drive it off the lot? You can buy a used car but it lacks some of the warranties and may have "reasons for selling" that are not fully disclosed. If you own with a large points system resort group, however, it is like having access to a fleet of vehicles, some new, some older, but all in good condition and designed to fill a variety of needs.
