I was quoted 1167 points for a two bedroom unit at Ocean City Maryland week 26 which ends on the fourth of July. This week has been a super trader and during a trade test several years ago, out-pulled almost every other resort that participated in the trade test and there were many. Needless to say I will not be depositing it with Redweek. Ocean City has very little inventory that shows up in exchange pools as most owners keep their weeks.

If I don't rent it out myself or use it, I guess RCI will be getting this one.

I agree you have a great week and location.

What resort and how many bedrooms?

I think Redweek has full control over every move on this exchange!
I think one of the Hawaii units is at your resort and you can not tell me it just sits there unless somthing wrong with it!.............

Softball Dad,
I deposited my week in June and have 1811 RedWeek points in the bank. I truly believe these weeks are available now, and that I can book any one of these Hawaii weeks today. Of course I would have to pay $125 for the exchange fee.


When I click on the Marriott Kauai week, the screen says:
"You have sufficient points to book this week now!"


When I click on the Marriott Waiohai week, the screen says:
"You need an additional 403 points to reserve this week.

Get the needed points by:

Depositing an additional week »
Or, you can purchase the remaining points during check-out ($1 per point)"

I have deleted three messages from this thread that referred to an earlier post that some believed may have violated the BBS Posting Rules.

Please, if you see such a post, please don't comment on it or ask a question about in the thread. It's very likely that a moderator will never see the possible violation, since moderators are not able to read every word of every thread.

Instead, as requested in the "Posting Rules", please click on the red triangle to the left of the offending post to report it. All moderators will be immediately notified and one of us will take reasonably quick action, if appropriate.
