Re: What keeps you from using Redweek Exchange? (by Brian H.):
Nothing. I deposited 2 weeks into this program (within the last month) without first having a suitable exchange, and found a great one within a week! I find it interesting that everyone appears SO AFRAID to deposit their week here? If you look at the number of Provisional Units (include provisional units when you do a search for exchanges) that have received point offers, its 5 or 6 times the number of actual units being offered for exchange. From this, I can infer that everyone is looking, but that they're afraid to test the waters, so to speak. Come on folks, get real. If nobody places their unit into the system, then of course they'll be fewer exchanges. Can you seriously tell me that you wouldn't be able to find something suitable in 3 years? (that's how long the points are valid). Further, to imply that the only units in the system are sub-standard is merely further propagating this myth. Again, if nobody deposits the system can't work! Plain and simple. This can be a great program, if everyone decides to participate! In closing, I might add that the week/s that I deposited with RedWeek, are with an RCI Gold Crown resort. In fact, we like this resort so well, that we've never joined RCI (no need) and have not previously exchanged our week/s. That said, with the RedWeek Exchange, I ended up exchanging for a top rated Marriott' Resort (II Premier Resort), over a holiday weekend! As for the RedWeek Exchange Program, come on in, the water's fine.
