I did the exchange over the phone, I just asked what's available. You can't place an ongoing request with a studio for two bedroom, unless the resort only has two bedroom units as the smallest unit size.

No, but you can do an Instant Online Exchange for a larger unit. When you do an online search, if you can "see it" you can reserve it. Don't change the occupancy number - leave it at 1.
 
Traded my two bedroom July 4th Plantation Resorts for a one bedroom Villas at Santa Fe Aug 1 in an ongoing search before the new system came in at RCI. I always have a conference in Santa Fe this week and love to trade TS to attend it.
 
Traded on 2/14/2011 for week starting on 2/19/2011 in Naples. 2bdrm at Vanderbilt beach and Harbour Club, waterfront gulfside. I could also have gotten a 2bdrm at Sanibel Beach Club II.

got a Westin Lagunamar studio for first week in May for just the exchange fee thanks to XYZ.
 
my first trade!

Trying my hand...I think I did okay?

Traded my studio MGV for a 2 bedroom Willow Ridge Lodge (Horizons Marriott Branson property) around spring break...April 15-22nd.

I know Branson isn't 'all that' I guess and I did it in the flexchange free-for-all, but I was still glad I traded up! It's our anniversary trip and we're bringing our little one, so it should work nicely.
 
I just went back and looked and realized I had not posted my great exchange. I traded my SBP 2BR Gold Plus for a 2 BR at WPORV, then using XYZ, got a week at WKORV in a 1 BR. Used a second SBP 2BR Gold Plus for 2 weeks in a studio at WKORV (using XYZ type 2). My sister and her husband are coming with us and they are thrilled.

In posting this, I just realized why my 2011 weeks are still there - it is because I did not use them. I only had to use my 2010 weeks.

Now, if I could just get KBV for next year!

If you want to go to Branson, it is a GREAT trade. You got a 2 BR for a studio. And Branson can be lots of fun. I hope you book some great shows. Also, the Ozarks are beautiful. Take time to go enjoy the lake.

Newport Coast for the last week of July

I have reserved the week of August 27th through September 3rd at Newport, but we had some change of plans and now we are looking to go during the last week of July.

Does anyone out there would like to trade for this week?

I also have another 2 weeks in Hawaii that I would be willing to discuss a trade for this last week of July at Newport Coast.

Let me now.
 
Exchanged my SVR 2BD (gold floating)for a 2 BD WKORV in late November through II. Still can't believe I was able to get one.
 
I traded our Playa del Sol Costa Sur studio for a 2BR at Marriott Desert Springs Villas II. We are here right now for our spring break!
 
Yeeeah Baby RARE EXCHANGE

Jut picked up Sandals Grande Riviera for a small $850 all inclusive fee and 9000 points for the second week in May....kaCHING thats the sound of SAVING big bucks on a Sandals vacation. RCI WEEKS
 
Desert Springs Villas exchanged for Maui

We own a platinum week at Marriott Desert Springs Villas II and had reserved the week of March 6 in 2011. We split our 2BR and deposited each side early last year.

About 2 months ago, we put in a request for Marriott in HI in July. We got the following exchanges within the last two weeks:

For the 1BR, we got a July 2011 week at Marriott Maui Ocean Club (1BR - old units)
For the 0BR, we got a July 2011 week at Marriott Maui Ocean Club (0BR - Lahaina units)

My very first exchange. Sheraton Broadway Plantation Palmetto One Bedroom Gold Plus for a 2 bedroom Marriott Grand Chateau is Las Vegas the first week in December for the Las Vegas half marathon.
 
Traded one May studio in Whistler (Club Intrawest) for one May studio (for 4) at the Westin Kaanapali Ocean Villas North.
Also got through RCI 2 weeks back to back at the Manhattan Club in September (executive studio for 4) for 80 points (Club Intrawest).
 
Traded a Hyatt for a 2BR Royal Islander next April. This is a wedding gift for some friends.

Traded another Hyatt for a 2BR Grand Mayan Los Cabos for us for next April.

Traded yet another Hyatt for a 1 BR Welk Sirena del Mar to follow the Grand Mayan week.

Then got an XYZ 1BR at Westin Kierland for Labor Day.

And still have an XYZ to book off the Royal Islander week.

Exchanged a Sedona Springs studio for a studio at South Beach Resort in Barbados for April 2012
 
Made my first exchange. Traded a 1 bedroom Shadow Ridge Enclaves (Jan. 2012) for a 3 bedroom Marriott Grand Vista (Jan 2012). The II desk wanted to search with the Deluxe lock off side, but I told her I have that reserved for March and it's an easy rental. She said "yes it is!"
 
happy trade

Traded my 1br, mid Nov week @ Samoset, for a Summit @ Massanutten 4BR end of August week. Very happy.

Just got confirmation from II of my request first trade:

of: 2 BR Aug '12 Newport Coast in SoCal

It took less than 1 week.

II trades

Wyndham 28k studio for 2BR Marriott in Myrtle Beach in early March,2011.
Wyndham 77k 2 BR for Wyndham Riverside Suites in the Center of the San Antonio Riverwalk on April 28,2011. Took me 18 months to get that one.
Wyndham Studio for 2 BR at Cancun Resort -Las Vegas
then XYZ for 1 BR at Marriott in Breckenridge, CO on Dec 3rd,2011. All for 28k studio!
Wyndham 77k 2Br for Sedona Summitt in April, 2012. Plan to XYZ again.
Wyndham 77k 2BR for Oct, 2012 Church Street Inn 1BR, Charleston, SC. Plan to XYZ again. Love inner Charleston location.
Trying to travel a lot on these deposits made under the old point grid. As long as XYZs are available, we can still go a lot. We only own one 2BR week at Royal Vista.

Marriott oceana palms

Just checked in here for the week, traded a studio at Marriott Willow ridge Branson for a 2 bedroom ocean view here. I know it's offseason, but the ocean view looks great here from the 14th floor!
 
My first trade

I'm new with this and we made our first two trades with II . We split our Westgate Town Center Kissimmee 2 bed unit .

1 unit was traded for a 1 bed in Royal Caribbean Cancun that we just returned from . The other unit was traded for a 3 bedroom in Branson for spring break (7 hour drive ).
