Re: purchasing points (by Jim Y.):

I can't speak for all the systems...With FF/wyn, you do need to have closed and the rersort has to have you on file before you can access the web or utilize there reservation system. I assume it is the same for others but could be wrong. You can go to the website and get info on the resorts, but will not have full access until your resale contract is on file with the resort and you have a member number ect. If you just want info thats provided on there locations you can just go to the corresponding web site. I won't speak on the RCI question except that I believe and could be wrong that Points accounts access a totally differnt thing so you would need your actual points account. The third question I am not sure I understand it entirely but... With Wyndham and I know with Diamond, Bluegreen and all the others I know about you pay some sort of assesment fee for the program i.e Fairshare plus. Then you can use your points in the system to do internal exchanges. With Wyndham the RCI membership is included as part of that assesment. You really though are not paying additional fees except for those that allow you to use the exchange system unless you make a exchange through RCI in which case you would pay the exchange fee as you would with a fixed week. jim
