Real Question: WHAT (or Who) IS DAE? it's (His) PURPOSE? (by KC):
donaldd67 states / asks in part: >> Quote: --by marty8084 "Redweek does this".... Question:... Does What? << ============================================ Marty clearly means that Redweek assesses the value of a week which a member submits for potential exchange via the RedWeek exchange program.
The RedWeek exchange program is relatively new, first constructed just over a year or so ago, in partnership with DAE (which, since you asked, is an abbreviation for Dial an Exchange; a small independent "exchange" company"). In my opinion, the RedWeek exchange program has great potential, since (unlike RCI, by comparison) RedWeek provides a clear, specific, numerical "valuation" of a potential "deposit" BEFORE the owner chooses to "deposit" it. This is a fair and transparent process, in concept. However, RedWeek has clearly had some "growing pains" with making accurate valuations. Those valuations have been quite wrong in BOTH directions --- too high AND too low. Personally, I believe this inconsistency to simply be the result of inexperience and a lack of sufficient familiarity with some "markets". In short, these inaccuracies and inconsistencies are NOT due to any malfeasance or dishonesty, at least in my personal opinion. Starting a new exchange program cannot be an easy undertaking. Hope this input helps...
