In addition to the questions below I'd like to add that I'm currently in the process of rescinding HGVC. I am now looking at a few options including HGVC Scotland (purely for points), Wyndham and WorldMark. The two latter ones look promising due to the sheer amount of locations available domestic and a few abroad. I've heard Hilton is looking to expand a lot into international locations and Caribbean. Anyone have details on this? Also, if going with Wyndham or WorldMark is it wise to buy a Hawaii location or can I buy anywhere? Is there a noticeable advantage to doing it that way?
