Re: Secondary market vs purchase from developer (by Tammy C.):
I totally agree with you. I regret buying my timeshare. The ONLY resort I can trade into is Kauai. I have been calling all week (8 month window) to try to trade into Harborside or St John. No luck....they should tell you about this when they sell you the timeshare but of course they don't
I also tried to call interval and they only have ONE PROPERTY available in the ENTIRE carribean for the summer!
And....insult to injury....Starwood just upgraded the Westin villas to a category 6 hotel just becuase it's in "high demand." So a free night went from 12,000 pts to 20,000 and cash and points went from 4500pts and $90 to $8000pts and $150. Now it's on the same level as the St Regis brand???? It's a TIMESHARE not a luxury hotel
We usually trade our week to Kauai and spend a few days on Maui. Now it's not worth the $$ and points to do that anymore.
