Anyone here has any experience with 5starsvacations (timeshare)

[Annam26]

My sister called in on a radio show promotion in which they were giving away a package of 4 days 3 nights for 4 people at an Orlando hotel, plus two tickets to Universal Studios. The only thing she was to pay for were the taxes.

We must take a "guided tour", or we will be charged fuul price for the package. I was told that this is most likely a timeshare.

We'd love to take the trip, but we're not interested in any timeshare.

Has anyone here had any experience with this company (the brochure also says it is a "VGC Company".)

How hard do they try to sell the timeshare? Can they be so tough as to not make the trip worthwhile?

I am not familiar with this one.

however most of these will be hard sell.

just tell her to say 'no' probably at least 5 times....

also make the appointment for the sales pitch on her last day right before she leaves...so it won't ruin her vacation.

now she has to go on it - or they will charge her twice the normal rate.

the thing she has to remember these people aren't her friends. they are sharks - they are out to take her for all she is worth....

I'll tell her to make the appointment for the sales pitch just before we leave.

If anything, it should be an interesting experience....

Thanks for the tip, spiceycat

Now that is some good advice
