Although the vast majority of time shares are worthless, some do have actual value. My parents owned a dozen weeks at one resort and when they wanted to either upgrade when a better week or unit became available or they wanted to unload a week, there was an active online board for that resort. After my dad passed away, my mom started selling the weeks off one by one (both my sister and I said no, we didn't want them). She actually made money on every single sale. But that is very unusual in time shares and lots of weeks they purchased were directly from other owners.
