Thanks Chris, it's WorldMark.. confusing. So different to Wyndham.
Different (but related) systems.

Same fundamentals, though.

#1 -- If you are not COMPLETELY sure you made the right decision (and fully understanding the product is key to that), RESCIND and start over from square one with an open mind.

Fundamental #2 -- "Disregard anything any timeshare salesman tells you." If their lips are moving, they REALLY ARE LYING!.

Fundamental #3 -- "There are no exceptions to #1 and #2 above."

Since you are confused, suggest you read this thread. Then rescind and jump back to square one. Join the other happy campers that have rescinded and saved thousands.:ponder:

Worldmark South Pacific (WMSP for short) is a different beast altogether from its North American cousins (even the US and CAN memberships are a bit different) in that they are different clubs. They do cross-pollenate (i.e. you can use credits in one club to book in the other) but ONLY if you have developer credits. US/CAN WM owners of record before a specific date in 2006 can also access WMSP, regardless of whether they acquired resale or retail credits before that date, but any resale after that date is not eligible. I do not know if WMSP has a similar nuance.

Do you see yourself using WMSP to get the the US/CAN frequently? If so, maybe you might consider keeping the retail credits. But in the long run, you are probably best saving the extra cash and renting from a WM North America owner (or any TS system owner for that matter) when you need to.

Also, you'll need to do your own homework to investigate the resale market in Australia to see if there really are savings to be had.

To a Mod: posts 21-28 should be broken out into a separate thread and moved to the Worldmark Subforum.

If I followed it correctly, it sounds like this whole thread is about Worldmark..

Ha! So right! Edited my post accordingly... :)

Perhaps even add "WM South Pacific" to the title...
