DO NOT BELIEVE that lie! Resale buyers are treated the same by the company, although resale doesn't get whatever VIP benefits you would get through buying from the developer, like reduced point vacations and unlimited housekeeping fees (which you only get for Gold and Platinum memberships). Wyndham guides are very happy to help you get a vacation anywhere you want to go, and you can book online as well. I love the flexibility of a points system, especially at a time when RCI is devaluing our ownerships by giving us poor trading power on our weeks and renting exchange inventory to the general public. We own a few million resale points and have been very pleased. Don't do a lot of short trips, so you won't have to pay those housekeeping fees. Keep your trips to one week vacations for the best use of points without extra fees. You can get Bonnet Creek during off-season times for 112,000 points, and for most people, the cost of that week is only $650. That's all there is to it. Timeshare salesmen are terrible liars. I cannot believe they get by with the lies. It seems they are never going to get regulated.
