Speaking of the May 2009 events which RCI swore did not change trading power, but Tuggers and other astute timesharers could easily see that in fact it did, here is a good thread from TS4MS:

How can anyone not completely gullible take anything RCI says about trading power at face value after events like these?
So-called ''Black Sunday'' on SA trading is another similar situation.

After 26-27 years of dealing with RCI, I can tell you that no change is going to be good for RCI's exchange customers.
As I said before, my studio units in Myrtle Beach are tigers now, but I don't expect things to stay that way. Suddenly the value of that week will decrease, because they will "re-evaluate" exchange power, and I will be disappointed in the result.
RCI is going to take two weeks for one, a simple way to double their rental inventory. Not nearly the deal the head salesman at Jungle Cruise is offering: "He will give two heads for just one of yours...."
I am worried. Supposedly no change in trade power, but that is what they said after 5/30/2009, when they drastically reduced the trading power to all five of my deposited weeks, then denied the entire fiasco.
Fortunately, the trading power is almost back to the way it was for some of my weeks. I can only say I am concerned for the future of RCI trades and hope John is right when he says trading power won't be affected. We will see.
