Re: Ripoff - Marriott Vacation Club Destinations Program - New Point System (by Den):

I'm delighted to hear that some are seeing higher values should they decide to liquidate. I haven't seen this. I would expect values for aftermarket timeshares to improve due to the pricing of Dest Pts. Why would a knowledgeable buyer buy 4,700 Pts ($50,000) to trade into a Newport Villas Plat week that he could acquire for $8,000? This alone should drive aftermarket prices up over time.
