Re: Marriott Going to Point Syst (by Den):

Points are overpriced -

Points are really overpriced in relation to their yield (in terms of a reservation) when compared to good weeks available for resale. I think the bottom has fallen out of the market for Marriott timeshare resales. The question then is whether one should pay $5 to $6 (a points purchase) for something you could buy for a $1 (an aftermarket week). The incremental attributes of the points program cannot possibly compensate for such a large difference.

Someone, please tell me why I am wrong.

Incidentally, I agree with others that renting thru Redweek is still the best option in terms of flexibility and cost.
