I certainly wouldn't buy at retail price from a resort - those are guaranteed to be way too expensive. But if you get a cheap timeshare, it can get you into some great deals.

We exchanged one week of our timeshare for a ski week in Taos, then got 4 additional ski weeks this winter for only $200 each (per week!). This is through RCI Extra Vacations. They have incredible deals like this available, but you can only get into RCI if you own a timeshare. If you own just one week yourself, you can buy as many extra vacations as you want.

I agree .... if we were still traveling timeshares would be the way to go with the very nice accommodations at very nice resorts. I'm not sure how many people are aware of the good deals they can get these days via resales and/or give-a-ways.
