Being the 2nd time in 3 years ive posted a wish ad, I have to say im more impressed than ever with the number of responses ive gotten.

Granted I put in a wish ad for a very popular location, much later in the year...but in less than a month I have recieved 21 legitimate rental offers.

The last time I tried this I recieved a 3br rental at the Las Vegas Hilton (on the strip) for $700 for the whole week.

This year wont cost that much more, and will be staying at the Grand Desert!

TUG is truly an amazing place. I am pleased that I am able to utilize my own system to both provide myself with a great vacation at a stupid low price...and provide a TUGGER a rental!

so, if you are looking to vacation somewhere, try the wish ads vs just scouring the for rent ads...you would be amazed at what some people can get for you!

Thanks for the reminder, Brian. I think I'll wander over there as I find myself in need of [something].

Wow, that was a lot of responses to your wish. Does anyone know anything about this?

"Don't let your week expire, I will buy your RCI Spacebanked weeks - any area, any week. I only need a few (20-35 TPUs) and am willing to pay up tp $20 per TPU. RCI has made it very easy to transfer/sell TPUs. Need to complete transaction before the end of March.""

This listing was on the "Wish Buy". I used to buy/rent additional RCI Points. Recently, a TUGGER had a thread going about buying/transfering additional RCI Points into account. I posted that I had done this a few times and everything worked out great. Another poster indicated that this could no longer be done. Original poster said that an RCI rep said it was okay, but still questions if this can be done or not.

I hesitate to deposit anything new into RCI Weeks, but would like additional TPUs to make a trade that I see online. Does RCI rent additional TPUs like it does Points? This is the first I've seen anything about transferring/selling TPUs. Anyone else familiar with this?
