I spent my spring break vacation at the Mayan Sea Garden in Mazatlan, Mexico. I want to share with you my time share presentation experience. My girl friend bought a Great Vacations Club membership for 3500$. Sam the salesman said it complements an RCI membership.
When we returned home we found that Great Vacations Club membership did not complement our RCI membership, it duplicates it. The offerings were different. But, not worth the 3500$ expense. We wrote to the Great Vacations Club to ask for our money back. Sam called the other day and said we should just throw away our RCI membership and use the Great Vacations Club membership. Sam couldn't give us our money back.
So when Sam sold us a Great Vacations Club membership he told us our RCI benefits would work together to enhance our travel options. Then, the other day he tells us to throw away our RCI membership and quit paying maintenance fees.
During the timeshare presentation I was verbally offered $19,000 for my Las Vegas timeshare. And I accepted, but they had to sell me something first. But then Sam says to quit paying the 468$ / year maintenance fee on my timeshare and use the Great Vacations Club membership exclusively.
So at one point my timeshare is worth $19,000 to the Mayan Sea Garden owner. Then Sam, who told us he represents the Mayan Sea Garden owner, implies my timeshare is worth nothing.
About Rights...
I think my girl friend signed an adhesion contract that basically says you have no right to a refund.in my reading I found that travel services are required to provide a 5 day period to a refund. So a contract that takes this right away is illegal.
