Sheraton PGA Vacation Resort (Port St. Lucie, FL), 2 BR-L/O, Annual, Plat (Weeks 1-17, 40-47, 51-52) - $1075.03 (March 13, 2008)

This is the first PGA for our TUG database. If trading power for PGA is as good as has been reported here, this 2 BR Lock-off, with its two platinum trade-able weeks per year, was a very good deal.

maybe so but this looks like the same item 2 BR Lock-off Platinum week and it didn't even get a bid for $100

This could be the same listing as another one listed a few posts above - remember that just because they are completed eBay auctions doesn't mean that they go though. Plus - I wouldn't call it a free fall - prices around this price have been seen before. Prices for Platinum VOIs at WKV are probably more representative since this season is a much higher value.

It was a relisted auction.

Thanks to a very kind and generous TUGGER, I'm on contract for the WMH Platinum 2 BR for $7,080. I still have no idea where I'm going with it in terms of requalification and the road to 5*, but at that price, hell, when my wife retires we'll go there every year! No we just have to see if it has a chance in hell of making it through ROFR.

I love this country and the economic pains we're going through concern me, but the fact is this will be an extraordinary opportunity for some people to pick up some incredible values.

Wow! Great price :clap: !

Just curious, the ebay ad said floats 1-52, which I don't think is even possible at WMH, so is it really Plat, and the ad just wrong with the weeks it lists?

I had the same question but my sense is that in the absence of StarOptions, I'm free to schedule any week I want. It was within SVN, booking during the summer would mean I had leftover Options - not an issue for a resale.

Either that or I'm getting screwed!

Actually, it's neither. WMH is 3 seasons with a Platinum, Gold and Silver week. This was deeded in the Platinum season sooooo it's Platinum. I believe you CAN'T reserve Gold or Silver time -- only your own season. If you retro it and get the 148,100 SOs, you will be able to use the SOs to reserve anything at any time though. But for now, as a resale, you can't pick a Gold time to go with a Platinum season week. PM me if it doesn't make sense (before it's too late).

Yup, I believe the only way to reserve outside your season is via depositing to II and exchanging... to the same resort but at a different seaons and with II's exchange fee.

I am only tracking Westin SVO's - if someone wants to pick-up Sheraton and HRA eBay SVO sales - feel free. There was some effort a while back - but it dropped off.
