    Considering Wyndham Resale?

    Hello, I recently attended a Wyndham presentation, where they offered 12,000 points for $20,000 at a 15% interest rate, but I walked out. Later, I saw I could buy the same points on resale for around $800, which got me interested. The salesperson mentioned RCI access (4,000 points for a week)...

    Magic Village Views in Orlando

    We are staying at Magic Village Views in Orlando. We got it as an exchange through ThirdHome from an owner so I assume this is a timeshare. It is managed by Wyndham and part of their Trademark Collection. I am wondering if it’s a timeshare because if it is, then I will post a review on TUG.

    Looking at buying 154,000 Wyndham bonnet creek points

    im totally new to the timeshare game. If I buy 154k “even year” points with a maintenance fee of 605 is this a good deal? Our goal is to stay at places for 2-3 nights. Most hotels are $150-$200+ A night and for 605 a year it seems like a no brainer if the points give us 10 or more nights. So...

    Buying question for Wyndham

    My wife and I recently attended a presentation in which we did NOT buy. However, the contract was for 6000 points for 16k. It is hard to judge value in what they are selling. Looking at the resell market there are a lot of options out there. It appears this was kind of a ripoff? Also trying to...
