Where is the best place to look for Marriott destination points to rent? I want to reserve in Hawaii Jan 2021 and do not have enough points for the transaction. Any advice before I do it?

I've rented points only once; it was an easy transaction. VPE "verifies" sellers which simplifies the vetting process. I worked with one of the megarenters advertising on that site.

I had heard about VPE and have tried numerous times to sign onto the website without success.....are you sure it still exists?

That is not the only Tugger run site that supports Destination Points rentals

I don't know what the problem with this site is, but I was only able to sign on successfully to VPE one time and the numerous other attempts have ended unsuccessfully:-( I really want to compare listings, but VPE sincerely has issues!

I go on VPE a few times a week. Have never had an issue. What browser are you using? Have you reached out directly to @StevenTing to see if he can help you?
