Greetings all,
Some time ago I had a discussion going with someone but can't seem to find it or recall with whom or where.
We were talking about my considering the sale of WorldMark points. I had mentioned that I bought in to them with 6K points when they were relatively new and added through the years to to my current level of 15K.
A question was posed to me that I don't recall the specifics of but suggested that there may have been a different type of point if bought very early in the system. I got the feeling that these types of points may have a different "value" associated with them but not sure if that was to Wyndham or the resale market.
Does any of that make sense at all?
I had received an offer a few years ago to give them up outright to Wyndham due to little to no utilization. I didn't bite figuring there had to be at least *some* value to them. I have been keeping them these past couple of years having gone in with family and a family friend on a DRI purchase and was planning on using them through Club Combinations. Unfortunately that situation has gone completely sideways and we're pursuing cancellation.
With that being the case, I'm thinking seeking a disposition for the WorldMark and bumping our Marriott to an annual use level is a better option for us as we're fans of the Marriott properties and the MOC in particular.
Our last trip we did the KBC and toured at MOC even though we owned 3,500 MVC points at the time. Since we weren't sure how the DRI group ownership was panning out at the time, we did the Encore to hold prices and get a relatively inexpensive return. So in a week we're heading out to use the Encore and added a couple nights to the 5 with our points. Gotta move halfway through, but whatever! We're thinking we'll bump to 5K or 5.5K then.
