I received a voice mail from Olin at Great Vacations saying that they doing a grand opening of Great vacations in Overland Park, Lawrence and Topeka and we have been selected to receive a 3 day complimentary fly away vacation to Las Vegas, Reno, Orlando Cancun or Los Angelas. We could depart from the Kansas City area using any major airline that they would pay for. This package includes 3 day Hotel Accomedations and a complimentary Hotel, Amenities and Entertainment with no obligation to buy sign or join anything.
We called back and found that you needed to provide ID, and put on the form that you made over 50k a year and bring a credit card for verification.
Well we attended the seminar at the Courtyard Maryott in Overland Park and met with a young lady who was working for them for a short time and had applied to a job response from Craigs list. She did a good job of asking the scripted questions and then the presentation came. The presentation said that after joing the program for 16995.00 your could get access to condos at very reduced prices for up to 6 weeks of travel per year.
The presentation was good and when I told the girl that I would not be interested in buying the package she had to get approval from her manager who would get our gift prepared.
The manager (Presenter of the package) came to the table the price then went from 16995 to 11995 after saying no to that the price went from 11995 to 4995 with financing available. Still saying no it went to 2995 with 650.00 down and 97.00 per month for 1 week of travel instead of 6. Sounded good huh. Well we still said no and that was the end of that. We were then given a travel certificate that says the following. You do the math and see if it is complimentary or not.

Keep and open mind and make your own decisions but this sure seems like a scam to me.
