Whoops! sorry wrong link, my right hand doesn't know what my left is doing!!

Here's what it should have been!

SBP 2bed LO EOY odd starts 2011 99-43 & 47- $203.50 (05/09/09)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=270383227549

interesting....I wonder if the voluntary resorts resale prices will drop even more as people discover the new policy on retro-ing a unit into SVN

WKV 1Bd Premium (44K SO) - $2750 (5/13/09)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=180354380622

I would deem this as suspect because auction looks very similar to listing discussed in posts 187-189 (the auction was removed by eBay).
(warning: never send money directly to seller - only to reputable Title Co)

Sorry, could you explain what this means please? Many thanks :wave:

Perhaps better in the thread that discusses this issue (vs. this eBay sales thread)

I picked up the 1 bed plat SBP for 405 .I never had any thoughts of retroing. It's just for trading.SVO rules change like the weather.

Really wanted to go for this but what I'd read about the seller on TUG (redweeks4less) put me off.

SDO 2 bed LO Annual floating 1-52 - $2,551 - (05/19/09)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=350200736581

Just noticed this has been relisted?

This auction went for about $1000 more than a similar unit last month.

No, it shows as a different unit. But unfortunately, the same seller.

catlady · May 26, 2009

Went for much less than the last one........I guess another neg didn't help!

I think it has a lot to do with the seller's and closing company's reputation.

I don't think so. eBay prices for the same resort vary greatly even on auctions closing within a couple of days of each other. I have watched lots of eBay auctions for Waiohai units (I own there) and there is little rhyme or reason about the closing prices.

Not all bidders are timeshare nerds like many of us are, and I suspect that very few have even considered let alone understand the issues surrounding unreliable sellers, inaccurate descriptions, and captive closing companies.

But enough digression.

Two bedroom SDO annual 1-52 (6/21/2009): $1,577.67

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=270407671714

Identical units have recently sold for $1,375, $2,114, and $2,136, all within the past four weeks, not in this sequence. Unfortunately, I did not keep the auction numbers

I've been posting the sales history for SDO ebay sales in the resort database because I was researching buying there (auction numbers are included there):

For trading purposes, isn't it better to buy SBP (less expansive) and reserve summer week than buying SDO (higher price) and try to reserve spring training week?

Redrosesix · Jul 16, 2009

I'm following SVR on eBay. Could somebody tell me if this is the right place to post, and if I'm doing it right?

SVR Fountains I 2 Bd prime weeks - $455.00 - (5/18/2009)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=270389287978

DeniseM · Jul 16, 2009

This IS the right place - thanks! :hi:

A couple of suggestions:

As you probably know, the ebay link eventually expires, so it's important to have the date and condensed version of the sale in the description.

Something like this works nicely:

WKORV 2Bd LO IV EOY odd (148.1 K SOs)-$10,000-(5/6/08)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290226421371&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=019

In this format, even when the ebay link expires, the date and pertinent info. are still available.

If a resort has different phases, it's helpful to have the name or number of the phase in the description, as well.

Thanks again! :hi:

Now you are going to make me do some work....

Actually, I need to catch up in transferring data to the sticky, anyway!

Redrosesix · Jul 17, 2009

LOL I've been seeing a lot of posts recently about people wanting to pay too much for SVR -- I know there are some listed in the marketplace, but even those don't truly reflect the prices that SVR is actually selling for these days, esp. the ones that got no bids when the starting price was $1.

BTW, thanks for doing this thread -- it will help me in my research too

One more:

Redrosesix · Jul 17, 2009

I think I'm starting to see a trend here -- some sellers get much higher prices, some can't seem to sell anything

Did you notice that TUG is not abbreviating (parsing) the ebay links for you?

To fix that, the next time you post (anything) scroll down below the message window and click on Automatically parse links in text. That should take care of it.

Funny, I was just trying to figure that out.

Thanks.
