I had 2 weeks expiring In August, 2014. Talked with Maureen at PI and she helped me book 2 consecutive weeks in Santa Fe in July. Such a pleasure to deal with PI, such a difference from RCI.

Hopefully you're still monitoring your post... I too just found Platinum Exchange and was wondering how well it works and if you saved money over something like RCI. If I don't hear back, I'll PM you...
Hi josh
I see this is an older question but the answer is the same : PI is much much cheaper than using RC! PM me for more details!!
This is not always true
1) If the week you want to book is connected to a holiday on their list at the beginning or at the end of your week, you would pay a surcharge, vs. RCI where this doesn't exist
2) If the unit you book is larger then the unit you deposited, even from a 2 BR sleep 6 to a 2 BR sleeps 8, you pay a surcharge, if you deposit a 1 BR and get a 2 BR you may end up paying $194 in upgrade fees.
3) With PI, many resorts have a "Resort Fee" on top of the exchange fee (in my example it was a Vacation village property and was charged $125 on top of the exchange fee). No such thing w/ RCI week exchanges.
So you got to do your home work before choosing PI
