    Buying another timeshare....thoughts?

    Howdy all.... Thought I'd get a group opinion. We do Hawaii every year--two weeks for now, until retirement--and decided to shift our ownership. We're going to sell Waiohai and buy a different timeshare. We're considering our alternatives and trying to be open-minded. In a few years...
