Re: point rental liquidators (by Don P.):

I agree with Tina. I don't know what timeshare12's motives are but it's obvious that he or she is some how connected to selling points. In my opinion points are the worst investment ever. They can dump some unwanted properties like SHR on the market just to fill their point quota. RCI and other point companies will promise you the world to get you to sign on the dotted line and then see how hard it is to get an actual resort that you want. I got rid of two timeshares because RCI was renting out prime locations on the open market depriving memebers of those exchanges.

If anyone knows anything about the industry today they will never buy another timeshare or points. You can rent one from an owner for less than he pays for maintenance fees without the lifetime obligation of never ending increasing maintenance fees and assessments.

Now that the FTC has formed a unit dedicated to timeshare fraud we might see some changes in marketing in the industry. Let's hope that this is the beginning of the end for BJ Cooke and his band of thieves.
