I am a new member to this site and have found a lot of good info. I think we are ready to get into a timeshare. The RCI Pure Points sound great to me. Can anyone let me know what they think about them? Thanks.

All RCI points have an underlying timeshare deed, that has been enrolled in RCI points.

RCI Pure points are one of two things. A product sold only in Europe with several properties tied to trust or more recently a RTU vacation membership product ultimately tied to actual weeks but you pay MF based on the Vacation club rules. If it is the one I have talked to direct purchasers before the point to annual fee ratio is above or around 2 cents per point which is too high to make it cost effective for most rci point vacations.

My guess is that you previewed it, then forgot to post it - it happens a lot.

You have not had any posts removed. If you write a post, and click "preview" instead of "post" it doesn't post. That is probably what happened. You are welcome to re-write your post.
