YES the number of affiliate CGs has shrunk. As did the number of RV mfgs., number of traveling RVrs, etc. Downturn in the economy, poor management, lack of visitor due to run down facilities.
A lot of bad CGs closed.....YEAH!
Whether I bought my 'home' park directly or via resale has nothing to do with use of home park. The only restriction is I can not use an affiliate CG within 125 air miles of the home park.
We like our home park and use it when in that area........and we use C2C CGs when it suits us in our travels.
Buying resale and using it is just being a smart shopper.
Those resales are existing memberships not just made up ones.
Buy a new suit, use it then consign it and resale it....didn't create another suit just changed ownership of the original suit.
Home parks sell a lot of memberships directly----as many as they can.
Affiliate CGs be they C2C, RPI, AOR, ROD etc. have always 'blocked out' certain times for their own members use.....not just Good Neighbor (or Encore). They are private CGs and have 'members' only times.
We have never had a problem getting a reservation in 7 yrs.
One must make reservations (sometimes some CGs will accept if you just show up) which is easily done, and you are fully aware of which CGs & what time period is blocked out. It's just called planning.
BUY resale (an existing membership) and USE it.
