WM & Trading Power - Did something change?

[schatterjee]

What's up with trading? We've had excellent luck trading our WM points and have used them for trading a lot. I've been planning a 2009 trip (for late in the year) and when I put in my WM info I am getting significantly fewer choices than normal.

Although, I hate the WM boards I did try to look there for info but as usual didn't find much worth reading... (sorry for venting!).

So, I'm wondering does anyone know if something has changed recently?

Thanks for any insight!

I am still getting great trades on II. And I just saw a great sighting. I am not an RCI member. Are you talking II or RCI? What WM info did you put in? What are you looking for?

We have used ongoing searches in Interval International (II) and have had very good luck. We just got back from the Westin Maui timeshare and were confirmed I think 9-12 months in advance. In addition, we were confirmed 12 months in advance for the Westin Maui for next year as well, however, subsequently decided to cancel.

In terms of online searches with the 3 bedroom float, what you can search for and see online I think does vary and sometimes it is also the glitch. Simply hit the F5 button a couple of times and sometimes more stuff shows up. Sometimes I see more and sometimes I see less with my Worldmark 3br float unit.

Once again, ongoing searches are the way to go if you really want something. We were able to see Four Seasons Aviara during the bulk spacebank -but then again, I would assume a lot of timeshares could see Four Seasons Aviara during the bulk space bank. Well....until us tuggers snagged a lot of them up so quickly. I hesitated for a day and those 2 bedrooms got snatched up pretty quickly.
