Deeded property converted to points: any difference?

[kbosch74]

All,

First of all, this site has helped me so much in my timeshare ownership...thank you all.

I am looking to add points via a contract on eBay. It says that "This Deeded Unit/Week Has Been Converted To Points". Does that matter? (I figure most older contracts are this way, but I don't recall my previous contract that I purchased specifically mentioning this).

Also, the listing doesn't specifically mention an RCI membership. If I already have one with my current contract, does this matter?

Thank you.

It matters in so far as your ARP for that contract/resort will only be for the underlying deeded week.

All Wyndham points contracts provide the RCI membership, so it will just become part of your existing one.

Thanks Scott. I figured that about that APR. Glad to see it matters not aside from that.

One other difference: converted fixed weeks pay MFs in the year prior to use. UDI pays MFs in the year *of* use.
