Weeks not available thru Interval - The recent post about the lack of Marriott weeks available thru Interval may be an example of how a free market works.

For example, doesn't this mean that individual Marriott timeshare week owners elected to withhold weeks from Interval because other alternatives were perceived as more desirable? The real culprit then might be the owner who decides he would rather have 10,000 Dest Pts for his premium week than a 1 week trade thru Interval.

I do not believe that Marriott (or Vacation Club) controls weeks turned over to Interval - we as week owners do that. The Dest Pts program may actually be a fairer trading vehicle in that it addresses differing values for timeshare weeks and gives us an alternative to Interval.
