[Specifics deleted.] What I really want is advice on the best way to turn those weeks into $$$.

Do I need to reserve and rent/sell the weeks? Or is there a market for deposited but unreserved weeks?

Thanks very much.

II does not allow deposits to be rented/bartered/traded, and if you get caught, you can lose your Acct., deposits, and any fees you've paid.

Also - TUG doesn't not permit advertising/soliciting in the discussion forums.

Trading into Whistler with a II TS is very difficult because there are very few deposits of the II resorts. This is because most of the II resorts trade in both RCI & II but first use RCI then only a few people trade their weeks in II.

Didn't mean to come across as attempting to advertise or solicit or violate any rules or terms. Just didn't know if there was a permitted way to get any cash for these weeks.

You can't rent the exchanges, but you can cancel the exchanges, and use the deposits yourself, in the future, assuming they haven't expired. You can also give them away to friends or family, and get a guest certificate for them.

In the future, don't deposit. Try to rent out yourself.

Thank you. That's the lesson, together with Bill's explanation of why it's so difficult to trade into Whistler via II.
