just discovered redweek and I've gotten a points eval for my week - the only thing is I have no idea what those points will get me in an exchange. what I want is something in nyc in mid-oct. can anyone give me an idea how many points the manhattan club or affinia go for? thanks!!

So far, their are no NYC weeks deposited with Redweek but there are many provisional weeks. If there had been a deposit, you could click on Timeshare Exchange above and enter NYC to see what an evaluation (points needed) would be if one had been deposited. I have no idea how you would find an evaluation unless one had been deposited.

Perhaps marty will chime in with suggestions on how to determine NYC evaluation points or you could send an email to Redweek.

============= I WISH Marty would give an explanation, but RedWeek is following the lead of RCI and II and keeping tight-lipped. Though, I'm not sure if they even know how to rate the resorts. I have a decent trader in New Hampshire and I saw a similar resort (size and location) getting almost 1800 points for a mid-March week (best case is spring skiing; worst case is mud season). So I naturally assumed (shame on me) that my summer NH week would get at least the same 1800 points as well. WRONG... RedWeek assigned only 1400 points. I asked for two other valuations, one during a February ski week and the other for the same mid-March week as the previously mention NH resort. Both these valuations came in at 1400 points as well. RedWeek valued a prime New England week the same as a lesser demand week.

My week can exchange one for one with many II resorts, whereas it would cost me several hundred dollars to buy more points to make the same exchange through Redweek. All I'm asking for is a little consistency
