don't understand listings

dukeofhesse · Mar 3, 2015

Brand new to the site and the forum.
I must be the dummy in the group because I cannot figure out the resale listings info. Some of the information doesn't seem to relate to other info.

For example, a floating EY Red listing shows these dates lined up horizontally:
The 02 and 17 are in bold gold ink. Could someone please explain what these
dates mean and what the bold numbers signify?

02 2015
17 2015

01/10/15
05/02/15

Thanks

I think the 02 and 07 are the calendar weeks that are for sale= week 2, week 17. The dates are the start dates for the unit usage for each of those 2 weeks.

If you look above the dates, you will see a heading for each column: "weeks" "dates."

Thanks Pumilia,
So then in the example, seller is offering two different weeks I guess. I think that was what was part of my confusion.

If it is a floating week it could be the range the week floats through. What is the listing? Did you click and read the body of the add. When I list I try to add an explanation if I think the pre-fab ad parameters may be ambiguous.

I often get questions about the float period anyway.

Yes, I think that is the start and end date, for a floating week. (The season.)

It would seem that:
02 2015 refers to week 2 of 2015 - check-in is Saturday, January 10
17 2015 refers to week 17 of 2015 - check-in is Saturday, May 2

This probably means that the floating week for sale can be reserved and used during the time period (season) beginning with week 2 and ending with week 17.

Looking at a good timeshare calendar will help you understand it.

Just pick the year you want to see.
