Re: Marriott Going to Point Syst (by Don P.):
It's very simple. Timeshare companies make a fortune selling points. What are points ? They are simply air. You don't have a deed and you own nothing but their promise. They can sell as many poins as they want for as much as they want. You get a promise that you can use them. If they over sell them they don't care. If you try to book a week and it's filled they just tell you it's not available and you have to settle for another time that you don't want. It's a huge scam. Just like the treasury dept. they can create all the points they want just like printing money. The problem is that it becomes under valued and you are at their mercy to use them. I am so glad I got rid of my timeshares.
