This is a service for buyers and sellers of timeshares at two of the most popular RCI and Dial-an-Exchange resorts in the North Island of New Zealand.
RCI Gold Crown Resort Sun Pacific Villas, Mt Maunganui,
RCI Resort Okawa Bay Lake Resort, Lake Rotoiti, Rotorua.
Resales are a very cost effective way
of acquiring timeshares as they are at a true market value and not at
developer prices where you are paying for expensive marketing programmes and
gift schemes. Check out the pure facts here with no hype or pressure, or
half-truths , and then make the dream of luxury holidays in your very own
apartment at a world class resort a reality.
For information on the buying
and selling of resorts other than those above we recommend you check
out www.timeshare.co.nz
This company is very experienced in timeshare in New Zealand and Australia and
we work together servicing the resales market of the area.

Some of the things people like about timeshare
Luxury holidays at a fraction of the usual cost
"Paid for" holidays which leaves cash in the pocket for holiday spending instead of accommodation
"Compulsory" holidays push one into actually taking holidays
The week of timeshare means a holiday rather than a break of just a couple of days
A fully set up holiday home...microwave, laundry, dishwasher
A real holiday for Mums - the "mod-cons" are not left at home
"Walk-in, walk-out" holidays, not like baches to open up and close up, and worry about the rest of the year
No security worries, no maintenance or lawns to mow
Friends or family can use your timeshare if you wish
No per head charges - units can sleep up to 6 or 7, or up to 4
Flexibility with floating time, or certainty with fixed weeks
Variety in holidays through the international exchange system
Really cheap overseas accommodation by exchanging
Accumulate holidays for several years with the exchange
Rent out your holiday for profit
Sell, will or gift your timeshare
Dial
an Exchange is based in Queensland and has an office at Taupo, and deals in
Australia and New Zealand timeshares with a very broad coverage. It works
like RCI Weeks system described below.
We recommend this exchange as being very effective in achieving requests.
They also offer exchanges into Europe, USA and elsewhere from their offices in the UK and USA. They do exchanges into Canada, USA, South Africa, Malaysia and Thailand, and we suggest you contact them direct for full details.
Their exchange fee is only $120 to Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, and $165 to all other destinations.
Dial-an-Exchange has no membership
fee or joining fee.
Dial-an-Exchange offers Bonus Weeks as extra holidays, $110 - $475 per week total, no deposit required.
Another benefit is that your
banking saves for 3 years if you wish. Your deposit is not required until your
exchange is confirmed .
Dial-an-Exchange also offer an optional Cancellation Protection Option for $10,
so if a booking is cancelled you do not loose the week you have banked or the
exchange fee.

A full description of how the exchange works is in your Australasian
Directory book, however we give you here a brief outline of the main points of
the system.
The system can be likened to a banking system with deposit and withdrawal facilities.
To make an exchange deposit into the "R.C.I. Spacebank", you contact
your Resort Manager, who will allocate you a booking for a "week"
which you can then "Bank" with R.C.I. The Resort office can
"bank" for you, if you wish.
Your spacebank deposit gives you a "credit" in the bank which is good
for 2 years forward or 1 year back. (i.e. a 2003 holiday can be drawn against
in 2002).
Your credit is not dependent on someone using your deposited time.
Having made your deposit, you may request a holiday at any of the 3800 resorts
in 60 countries worldwide, at any time of the year, regardless of the time of
the year you own in, or the particular week you banked.
There are 20 resorts in N Z, 55 in Australia, and 5 in Fiji.
Requests may be lodged from 2 years ahead, to as little as 2 days before you
wish to holiday, but obviously the earlier the better. R.C.I. do the rest
for you and confirm your request as soon as your choices are available in the
spacebank.
R.C.I. is basically a club and has an annual membership fee ($95, or $57p/a
with 5yr deal ).
When an exchange is requested, R.C.I. charge an administration fee for
processing your request.
This is (per week exchanged) - $129 for New Zealand, $139 for Australia
and Fiji - $249 for Worldwide exchanges
There are no accommodation charges or adjustments at all.
Your R.C.I. membership provides you automatically each new edition of the
Australasian Directory, a quarterly copy of "Endless Vacation"
magazine which is loaded with articles on holiday destinations and travel
information,and other R.C.I. services and bonuses.
R.C.I.'s address is- PO Box 11561, Onehunga, Auckland. Ph 0800 36
