I plan to wait and see what Marriott will do if no one is willing to go close to my asking price. I may have to wait and pay more dues next Jan, but I think I'll stick to my asking price on TUG. You guys have been a great help!! Kathyjimy21 wrote:Phil, I 100% agree. If it is Marriot resales. I only began posting on the issue because I notcied alot of people telling Kathy, it was just a loss. She was stuck with a Marriot week she did not want. I think that if she is willing to accept just $1000 then that is a fire sale. Otherwise if it is the Marriott resale dept, which I know little about, then wait it out for 700% more $. Bottom line is she is not stuck with her developer week. It is actually worth something which is not always the case on the resale market. jimJim you are right! I stated on a post months ago if we get tired of going over the same subjects everyday with new people to just print a list at the top of the forum under rules.
Don't use upfront companies, drop your price because it is to high and you should run your ad on Redweek!
I have run a ad two times and never even had a hit. There are always other options people can try before giving up.
Some people on here always use these three statements to try and help people or Redweek, I'm not sure!
Its true some timeshares can not sell even for a dollar as you can see everyday on E-Bay.
It may take time but I have trouble believing any size Marriott will not sell at some point and if Marriott says it will then I would have agree with them.
One of the reasons to spend big money and buy like Marriott is to own something that retains value and all the big names do this.
Kathy would be doing Marriott a favor if she sold for $1000 because Marriott would take it. They then would make $14900 on the sale!
UPDATE 2/26 HOLIDAY HAVING PRESALE NEXT FOUR DAYS AND KATHY'S MARRIOTT HAS A STUDIO FOR SALE WEEKS 24-38 FOR $3200. THIS MEANS KATHY'S SKI WEEK IS WORTH EVEN MORE!
