This is my first post.
I am in the process of purchasing (resale) a Diamond Resorts timeshare in Mallorca from a resale agent. In speaking to a few agents, I got different explanations of membership in RCI. A couple said that the timeshare unit was worth 73,000 RCI points and that they could sign me up, and one said that although affiliated with RCI this timeshare is not on the point system.
My plan is to buy the time share and use it in our Fixed week 29 in 2016, however in the summer of 2017 we want to Exchange for Sardinia.
I phoned RCI, and they weren't happy to speak to a non timeshare owner, what they told me that I need to go back to the developer and that in any case I could only be on the weeks program.
At this point I am really confused, and I will phone Diamond Resorts, but can anyone out there tell me if I can join RCI (as a points member) even a year after I buy the timeshare? Also can someone share a list of RCI timeshare points given to each timeshare?
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
