If it is a Wyndham points, it most likely is RCI.

If it is not Wyndham (the MF invoice is from the SI association), it trades in II.

And if you want a Week 4, I have one in the BARGAIN DEALS as a FREEBIE.

It is an II and a Lockout.

Are you sure? Star Island used to be one of the few Wyndham resorts that traded through II. II still lists it. The "most likely" in your post could be accurate now.

Wyndham has been ONLY writing new corporate accounts in RCI for about 8 years now.

Notice, I did say in my post -- if Wyndham, most likely RCI...

Mine trades through II. The OP probably needs to call the resort. I made absolutely sure mine was with II before purchasing it.

Have you received one of the recent letters from Wyndham telling you that you have been switched to RCI and giving you the option to opt out of the switch?

If it is a fixed week then it trades II. I purchased a week 52 with seller swearing that it would be RCI. Had to deed the week back to the seller for that reason.

It trades through both. II code is STR.

It is not managed by Wyndham!

I used II and with one BR red week got 3 BR. However, IMHO it was really 2 BR lock off.

Nice but take BC any day over it!

Thanks for all the replies. I was interested in buying a week if it exchanged through RCI but it does exchange through II.
