Another great site is www.timeshareforums.com This site is also free, same as TUG, but the format is different. I am impressed that Redweek is allowing these references to other sites. I do appreciate my membership here and get great results when I want to rent my owned weeks.

This is a great website with lots of information. The information is free, but you can get even more with a membership to the site, which I believe is only $15.00 per year. The owners there will help with any questions you might have about timeshare.

WorldMark owners gather at www.wmowners.com which has a very active discussion forum

Hi Chris, I actually sold my timeshare through use of Myresortnetwork.com. All but 2 inquiries were from them and one bought it. Hope this helps

I'm a renter only but have gone to TUG in the past. All it has done is fill up my in box with "send me money and I'll send you a fortune from a strange country". I think I've checked out them all but like the poster above said....I always return to Redweek! (and when asked about how we rent I send them here)

I,ve used a company that charges no fees to sell your timeshare with good results, their web site is www.timesharesales.net, ask for Paula or Marji, they were very pleasant to deal with, they also have a web site that specializes in Disney Vaction Club resales, www.atimeshare.com ask to speak to Jaki or Carrie.

www.timesharesales.net charges no upfront fee to sell your timeshare. They do charge a $1500 flat fee IF they sell your timeshare (no matter the selling price) or a 15% percentage of anything over a $10,000 'sold' price.

www.atimeshare.com charges no upfront fee, but they do not list what their sales commission is on their webpage.

One particular feature I really like about RedWeek is the absence of any "postings count" in the forums. "Counting posts" is a feature which is prevalent on sites like TUG and Timeshare Forums (both of which I also like for other resons, including the participation of some VERY knowledgeable people). In my opinion, however, a "counter" seems to encourage (and clearly succeeds in eliciting) a lot of superfluous, content-free postings, by folks clearly pround of their say, 10,000th posting. Personally, I don't care how many posts someone has made, or how many years they have been in timeshare. I'm more interested in whether their posting is informative, engaging, thought provoking, etc. But that's just my personal opinion --certainly worth at least what you just paid for it...... ;-)

I agree with your statement below regarding Tug.

There are some members there that post everything going on in their personal lives in the Lounge area and have been doing so for many years. Tug is supposed to be a timeshare related website, but there are some members who use it as their own personal internet blog to talk about themselves constantly AND there are those that post many nonsensical posts just to get their number of posts upped (I don't see the point).

Redweek's forums are about timeshares and timeshares ONLY, not members' personal lives. That's what blogs are for.

Kudos to Redweek.
