Don't give in to these high pressure ripoff artists.
If they don't want you to sleep on a major financial transaction overnight, it isn't worth making.

I never agree to make any major financial decision when it is first presented to me.

Apparently, even after cancelling within 3 days of signing the papers, you better get it in writting from them that they received the cancellation notice and have cancelled your membership. If you don't get something in writting verifying that they have cancelled it (phone converstations that confirm that it's cancelled do not count) then they will just keep your account open and harrass you for payments repeating that they have no record of your cancellation.

I've passed on many deals that had to be done that day. And I must admit I've lived to regrete many of them. My advise to anyone close to thinking about getting involved with Timeshare is BUY IT on the spot. If, when you get home, you decide to cancel then do so, at least you did not miss out on any true promotions should you keep it.

I was subjected to both the soft and hard sell. They tried to wear my wife and me down, and I had to say no many times just to get the message across.

I would like to say that it was demeaning and insulting, and at the end of the day, why buy when you can just rent?

At least we got a free dinner out of it. Even though I think we were being observed and profiled via CCTV camera during the dinner. I was probably targeted as a soft target.

I would just like to see somebody get really rude and shout and just simply lose his mind at a high pressure spiel. These salespeople really should know the consequences of their actions.

Or you just do what I do ... and stay the heck away from all timeshare "opportunities".

Life is just too darn short to deal with crap like this.
