I'd like some feedback on what people think is a fair resolution to a TS resale deal that has gone bad.
Buyer purchases an EOY 2018 high demand unit with a holiday week usage in 2018 already established in a reservation and contracted to be given to the buyer as part of the deal.
Buyer confirms reservation is valid and properly written in the contract and honors their end of the deal 100%.
As it turns out seller on May 1st converted the reservation to DC points so now that week is gone and cannot be retrieved nor can a similar week be provided because of super high demand.
Buyer cannot rent that week on renter's market for less than $4k if not more.
Seller has proposed offering $2300 cash or another week in place of the high demand week but in comparison it will be a low demand week the buyer can't use or rent for anything near the $4k needed to rent the high demand week they wanted nor give them the option to rent the week and receive the proceeds.
Buyer feels they shouldn't lose any value since they did nothing wrong and since seller made the egregious mistake they need to compensate the buyer fully and make them whole.
The buyer has proposed a $4k cash payment or refund of the full transaction and return of the week because otherwise they bought a week in 2017 they can't use until 2020 which to them is totally unacceptable unless the $4k is paid because they face 2018 and 2019 MFs before usage is available again.
This also involves a reputable broker so it will be interesting to see how they look to make this right.
So should the buyer accept anything less than the reservation in question or the FMV of the week which can be easily confirmed by Redweek?
