I've heard a lot of shit about timeshares, but is it possible to get a good deal on one? Does that require someone to actually pay you to take it from them (are they THAT bad, really?)?
Yes, take the special offer to hear the pitch, and never buy.
They get so mad lol. I did this once, and when the guy realized we never intended to buy, he said "Never come to one of these again". And I was like, "Stop sending me free vacation offers then!" (at least that's the comeback I came up with a few days later)
We have only done it once, and the people were pretty cool about it. A couple quick last minute pitches and we were out the door.
Yeah, they did keep cutting the price to try to get us. The last offer was half the price of the one before it, which just made me think "if you can offer this, how much of a rip-off must the original price have been?"
