I would be useful in the context of this thread's discussion to let folks know what you put up for the exchanges and maybe how far in advance you placed your requests.

I have traded into Marriott's Maui Ocean Club once and Marriott's Ko Olina twice.

All 3 times I traded my Marriott's Imperial Palms villa in Orlando.

We now own at Ko Olina EOY so get it every time we want it! :)

I was able to trade in II a Barony June week for a week at Waiohai 2Br which I requested 13 months in advance and hit within the first month.

I still have a July 4 2BR Sunset Pointe trying to get a 2BR at either the Towers at Maui Ocean Club or 2BR Koolina. I added also a 2BR at the Westin on Maui as an additional choice. Request was made 13 months in advance. Been a few months and still no dice.

I doubt any MOC has been deposited yet. That is a year away and most can't even reserve their week yet, let alone deposit it.

I'd guess there haven't been any bulk deposits yet. Late this summer I deposited a studio and requested like at Ko Olina. Within one week of my studio deposit, I received confirmation of receiving a two bedroom developer week at Ko Olina.

I'd stay you don't even need to deposit your full two bedroom unit to get what you want for next year.

My resort only has 2 bedroom units,so I cannot deposit something smaller.
