Grande Ocean Platinum, 3 x Grand Chateau 3 Bedroom (annual, EOY Odd, EOY Even).,
I have an opportunity to buy a resale platinum week. How is the trade value to other Marriott's or within II. They are going fairly cheaply, any reason?

Thanks
 
It would probably have the same trading power as other 2 br non ocean front platinum units (Williamsburg, Branson, Orlando) as long as you reserve a peek week. Problem is that it doesn't lock off so even when you don't need the additional boost from using a 2 br you don't have the choose. Every exchange is going to cost you a $1280- $1310 depending on whether you trade for another Marriott or something else. At the same type of resorts a 1 br doesn't have that much less trading power so for most exchanges the studio portion is like a bonus unit to trade. None are going to have great trading power to get into the harder to get platinum and even gold season Marriotts other than fairly last minute because that's the way the deposits have been running in II.

Where were you hoping to use it to exchange into for the most part?
