I don't necessarily agree... (by KC):

That last post is highly suspect. No one has been paying that much money for a timeshare like yours for quite a while, especially not in 2009, and since 2BR units are listed for $1k-$4k it's unlikely anyone would offer $9k for a 3BR.

With due respect, It's certainly plausible. While you do make (accurate) reference to 2BR pricing, this was a 3BR timeshare, so you are comparing apples to oranges. 3BR timeshares are truly a rarity in the timeshare world. A family with money to spend that wants / needs 3BR might very well pay $9k in the resale market for a guaranteed prime week each year when their little fluffies are all out of school. I certainly wouldn't pay even a small fraction of that amount myself, but I admittedly have no use for the Orlando area anyhow. Nonetheless, I don't find it entirely outside the realm of possibility that the "right" 3BR week could well have been a perfect fit for a young, affluent family.

Tax matters....well, I'll stay away from that --- not my bailiwick.
