I agree with Dani. We have owned SA for over 3 years and our trades have been good IMHO. With MF averaging $230-260 and exchange of $149, we are around $400 per week for usually a 2 bedroom gold crown, not counting our low purchase price. We just booked So. Cal and Hawaii for 2007 with our SA. I would still own SA and in fact I would buy more even today.

Wow, I am impressed that Dik will still do this since Black Sunday, unless these are for really low season. All I have seen with my Diks online recently are hotel units during prime times and place. At least before Black Sunday, I would see some stuff if not many of the the units my good trader pulls online - but now is is nothing at all or only the hotel units and sometimes even those HUs will not even show.

So maybe a search will still do it - but I would have thought that a 2 br GC would be out of the question for a Dik this days unless it were a last min cancellation or something weird. JMHO

I am like, Dani, I have gotten my use out of those Dik weeks, being one of the original Dik owners.

These Diks were deposited before black sunday, so I can't say right now how our new deposits will trade. The trades were for jan 2007 for carlsbad inn ( 1 BR) and Lawrence Welk (2 BR) and for hawaii Paniolo greens(2 BR) and Fairfield Kona (2 BR) for Oct 2007. I'm sure these are not peak times but they meet our schedules and needs.
