I'm in the process of receiving 2 weeks at Gaslamp Plaza Suites from a TUG member. I have been a happy 1 week owner for many years. I like to stay there, and have made many great trades through II.

My only concern is the new Management Company -- Capital Vacations.

All the info available in the Capital Vacations sub- forum from TUG members indicates that trading in your deeds for Capital Points
could cause a significant increase in the cost of a week's use.

There are also reports of transition issues in paying MF to various resorts . Hopefully this is resolved.

As an experienced TS owner you should know how to avoid sales etc.

We had a wonderful stay there many years ago. Talking to a childhood friend of my daughter last week and she mentioned she worked selling timeshares for them many years ago,

Two times in December with separate TUG members each has initially agreed to transfer their timeshare to me and then did a complete 180 and refused to honor their agreement.

These were freebie givaways in the Free Timeshares forum? Odd they would change their mind unless someone contacted them and offered cash instead of free.

It looks like they were not that interested in unloading it. There are thousands of them available for free at other sites. Go for it.
