Newbie (to SFX)

[janapur Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close janapur]

Hi Mark. Please excuse my ignorance, as I have not yet used SFX but have heard such great reviews. I recently purchased a 2BR Mayan Palace and plan to use one week, leaving the VF week available to rent or exchange. I thought this might be a great oportunity to experience SFX. Unfortunately, all of my other traders are already deposited with the bad guys- my term and opinion, not necessarily yours.

Do I reserve the VF week and then call to deposit with SFX or would SFX have an ongoing search for someone and want me to request that week/location? Is there a way to find out which week at which location will create the greatest trade power? I hope my questions are clear.

In future years, when I wish to bank both weeks, should I split the lockoff or enjoy the better trading power of two 2BR units?

Thanks in advance. I look forward to this new adventure. Please be gentle and remember the old dog/ new trick adage.

Hi Jana - Thank you for your post. Good questions.

To deposit your Vacation Fair week with us, please call Mayan reservations directly. Advise you wish to reserve and deposit a Vacation Fair week with SFX. They will assign a week that has good trading power for both dates and location. I believe that will also qualify for our 2 weeks for 1. (One exchange week and a Bonus Week).

For future deposits, we do no accept the small lock-off portion as a deposit. You have the choice of depositing the whole 2 bedroom unit, or a minimum of the larger master 1 bedroom unit, leaving you with the studio side for your own use. Of course the two bedroom unit does give you higher trading-power. You would also qualify for the then current 2 weeks for 1 promotion.

We look forward to sending you on great vacations !!

Hope this helps...
