Re: What are the costs to maintain a timeshare (by Mike N.):

If we didn't buy our original TS in the early 90s, we probably would not have travelled to the places we did. The TS gave us that opportunity through exchanges.

Back then, before the wide use of the internet, I don't think I would've been searching for private rentals. So even with the MF (and II fees) plus the "amoritzed" original purchase for a 2 BR unit, we felt it was still a bargain.
