I own a timeshare in Cabo San Lucas Mexico at the Pueblo Bonito Sunset Resort. I am on the point system and have 100 regular points which entitle me to any week in a Jr. Suite for $450 when I go. I also have 100 Platinum Points that is good for an additional week (non peak time). When I called RCI, they told me they could not tell me what they were worth and I had to contact my resort to have them deposited. However I would not know how much trade credit I would get until they were deposited. And once deposited I would not bet them out for like 3 years.

Any insight what these Platinum points are worth in RCI or if I would even get something for them? I don't care if it is off peak time, I just want to use those points for something closer in the US to avoid the airfare costs.

Any advice on what I can do to trade these would be appreciated.

I think the exchange power depends on the the week that is deposited, but I don't know if you have any control over that.

A one bedroom with partial kitchen (6/4) ranges from 14-31 TPU, depending on the week. The highest TPU weeks are Christmas and New Years.

14 is low - 31 is average.

*I would call PB reservations, and find out what the process is for making a deposit, and if you can choose the week deposited. If you have an RCI Acct., you can use the deposit calculator to check various dates.
