Re: Selling your Marriott timeshare (by David V.):

Several years ago I attempted to purchase an "odd year" Marriott Mountainside, Park City, UT timeshare. Just prior to Closing, Marriott exercised their Option and aced me out of it. I tried again for an "every year timeshare" at the same resort and the same thing happened. A few months later both an "odd year timeshare" and an "every year timeshare" became available and I negotiated prices with two different sellers and this time I was able to purchase both of them at deep discounts. Marriott did not exercise their options for those two timeshares. All four attempts to purchase were for the Silver Months during the Summer. I suspect that Marriott exercises their options to buy back from the Owner's when they need inventory and do not exercise those options when they have sufficient inventory on hand. The transactions that worked out were in Sept./October.
