How would an August Mexico week trade?

I am curious about a week I saw for sale. It says its a red week #33, at the Pueblo Bonito in Mazatlan. Thats an August week so I would think it wouldn't trade very well. However, I suppose it might trade fine within the Pueblo Bonito group? Just wondering.....
 
We own a red studio float week at PBM. Our trading strategy focuses on snagging inside 45 day cancellations (the maint fees escallation is tied to USA inflation, so works well for that). I periodically search for stuff on line using an ongoing search based on the PBM deposit. It rarely matches anything on line that I would want in driving distance of Seattle outside the 45 day window. I did get a lucky match that must have been related to a bulk space banking.
Week 33 is the last "red" week of the summer. Week 34 is white.
PBM is a right to use. When does the unit you are looking at expire?
 
I'm not sure, I was just curious about trading. I've seen so many today - I think it had an expiration of 2015.

We used to own Mexico but sold both weeks to buy a SA and a fifth wheel!:clap:
Now the SA is not trading that great (no complaints at all, the ride has been wonderful) so might consider another Mexico or a Canada week.

But at this point I'm just looking.

Thanks
Diane
 
Mexico in general, does not trade well except for other resorts in Mexico. Ben
 
Not a great trader. Only a good deal if you want to trade within Mexico especially into another PB. You can call the PB desk at RCI and use the search first option (you don't deposit the week until they find something you want to trade for) and probably do a bit better if you do it well in advance of the week. MF are high , $704 for my Master suite (larger one bedroom) this year. You might be better with a US based trader with lower MF that won't expire.
