If you ever are considering buying a timeshare, just do a couple google searches. People are dumping their timeshares left and right and you can get them for pennies on the dollar in some cases. In some extreme cases, people are selling their timeshare contract for $1 so they don't have to pay the annual maintenance fee.

You don't want those though, they're shit. Inflexable, and constantly rising M/F. They've changed over the years. There are some that are actually worth their weight in salt. You just have to buy the right one. And I agree, never buy at retail. They can be had online much cheaper.

As far as the time, they can take that long, but lawfully after 90-120 minutes depending on the state, they have to gift you if you say you're ready to leave, and most of them won't even try to fight you. They're not all the same, but my experience is most of them are not crazy, high pressure anymore. Some, but not all, nor even most. Not even half. However, you're always in control. It's their job to make you feel pressure on yourself. Not pressure you directly.

All he needs is 87 of us to commit to the Branson trip, guys.

prolly not--I sucked. it was a dead-end job that paid the bills for a few months. what the job DID do for me, though, was convince me that I'd get nowhere in life without an education. ten years later, I'm working on my ph.d. and have a nature-genetics paper coming down the pike. it accomplished something I guess.

:clap: Those phone rooms are shitty jobs. I did that at 17 while my friends were flipping burgers, but that was about it. Congrats on the education, and the pending PHD. That's pretty awesome!

That is not sweetening the deal.

HAHA!! A few years ago my Wife and I went to Vegas for some timeshare crap (3 days 2 nights and 250 bucks for the casino). We had done the Branson thing and those guys were absolute jerk wads. Anyway, we stayed at the Riveria and had a great time. Here's the kicker:

At that time (may still be, I don't know) the law in Nevada, unbeknownst to us, was that as soon as the customer says "No", the presentation was over. We sat through the initial presentation for the timeshare (about 30 minutes) then they split us up and the salesman says to us "Well, folks, is something you might be interested in?"

I said, "nope". That was it. We got back into the van and they took us back to the Hotel.

Had a great time on their buck!

I worked with a guy and he moved down there about 8-9 yrs ago. He has several businesses down on the Landing. Liked Branson when I was kid. We used to go down there for Thanksgiving for several years. I haven't been back there in about 10-11 years and didn't care for it the last time I was down there.

I've done these before in Vegas. Never again.

Although, it probably did save me money I would have lost at the blackjack table. :hmmm:
