Re: Marriott Vacation Club point system (by LZ):

look at the timeshares users group - TUG (http://www.tugbbs.com/forums/) under Marriott and search for info. I am a legacy week owner that signed up to trade my legacy week for Destiation Points but have never done so. I think Marriott charges $500 for every 250 points purchased with a min charge of $3000 for someone buying resale. They also have the right of first refusal if the purchase price is too low. I have no interest in purchasing points so I read what is on the TUG website but I do not retain much. If you have a legacy week and you signed up for trading it for DC points, you can rent points from an owner instead of buying. Renting points right now go for about 50 to 60 cents a point. Almost what the MF is for points. Again, go to the above website and you will get all the information you need to make an informed decision.
