Re: Resort converting to points (by Gary M.):

Only slightly relevant here, but I've seen another sales weasel technique used to try to push me into converting to points. They will tell you that everybody is converting to points and the inventory of weeks kept as weeks weeks rather than points weeks will be less and less as time goes by. All I know is they will do or say almost anything to get your money for buying or converting and they continually come up with schemes to help you to "modernize" including trading in your week along with a bunch of cash. When I asked about the traded in week, it turned out I would still pay the week maintenance fee and it would be permanently banked. I've heard it costs more to sell a timeshare than to build it.
