Propably wouldn't limit them much. The PCCs would just start charging a higher fee and pass it on to the sucker consumer. There will always be desparate TS owners who will pay big $$$ to get rid of their timeshare.
Sad but true.

What is especially sad is the lies told by the PCC's to get people to part with good money that they do not have to in order to get rid of a timeshare. I have seen too many examples in deeds recorded on the OBX.
Like the weeks I have seen some of the PCC's deed right back to the HOA. Part of their spiel is that resorts will not take the weeks back, and they con $3K or so out of the victim on that basis, but obviously they know the resorts that do take deedbacks and do that themselves. Actually some of them should be prosecuted for the felony of false pretenses for this scam.
Or the prime summer weeks that bring $2-3K minimum even on the bargain basement of eBay, and more if sold on other venues. Yet they con their victims into paying them to take these weeks off their hands. I saw one widow taken for three prime summer weeks. She should have been receiving $6-9K but instead probably paid out ~$9K. The PCC obviously lied to her and told her the weeks were worthless. Again, they ought to be doing the perp walk for some felony time on this.
It is hardly just the HOA's that are being ripped off by these scam artist PCC's. It is the individual owner victims, too, in many cases.
Some State AG's have cranked down on PCC's. More need to do it, and not just with the civil fines used to date. These conmen need some active prison time.
