Nothing.
If you are rich (joking) and have a ridged schedule and don't want to micromanage your vacations--buy HGVC or Marriott points. You'll have little to worry about except your MF's and loan payments. If you are a value hunter and flexible and willing to 'work' for the value of 2 weeks for 1 etc... buy Marriott weeks. Seriously: there is nothing wrong with HGVC resale. There is nothing wrong with Marriott Legacy (weeks) resale. Just know that any legacy 'weeks' program in a system which has converted to points (Marriott, RCi, etc..) requires more flexibility, faith and hands-on effort to acheive the same results; at a lower cost. IMHO. YMMV. I hope that helps.

Depends on the product. The main problem is the ridiculous fee they charge to legitimize resale *points* into their system: $2 per point. Their *weeks* system doesn't do that, but is less flexible.

I don't have a clue what you are asking? I don't know of any problems buying a resale Marriott legacy week: any.

We checked into the Marriott Maui Ocean Club (MOC) on Sunday, November, 29th and we"ll be here in the same OF unit for 2-weeks. We have a 2-BDRM, full kitchen, W/D, and Ocean Front. As I'm typing this, I'm listening to the waves crash, we haven't had the air on since we got here.
At this time, I luv, luv, luv,, owning my Marriott.
Just got back from a sunset cruise and now I'm off to the pool with my mask, fins, & snorkel to practice for tomorrow's SCUBA refresher course, here at the Marriott.
Did I mention that I luv Marriott? Legacy weeks rock!
