Agreed but back then we were poor and barely could afford the flight out there (it was a surprise to her she didn’t know what we were doing till we pulled up to the gates in Orlando since we flew in to Melbourne).u ain't lying. the time I did it, there were people folding left and right and caving and buying. and even when u tell them "no" a million times, they bring in a second person to double the pressure. just gotta fight through it til they give u your tickets. that said, I would NEVER do it again. they are the worst.
time shares have no perks. they are a total scam. and it's damn near impossible to get out of one or sell it. so even tho it's technically real estate, it essentially holds no value or builds you wealth.Did one...
Definitely didn't want to do it...
But you get a room and all inclusive for that presentation. And 2 other free trips all inclusive trips.
I said fukk it.
They know want they're doing... A lot of female presenters and they was all badd.
The representative we had, was sexy as fukk.
We told her from the jump what it was.
"We are not looking into buying anything. We're broke.... All our funds are tied up".
These are the lines we practiced before going lol
Me and my homegirl pretty much spent the whole time laughing and flirting with her.
They gave us free drinks throughout, i dont normally drink, and I can't drink for shyt. So I'm being silly as fukk lol
Other muthafukaz was looking at us like we were crazy. Lol
She gave us all the info cause she had to, but we were busy talking about everything else but timeshares.
the final boss manager comes thru. We told him before he got a chance to sit down, what it was.
It was funny because when she said she has to go get the boss... I said I know he's going to come over and try to get us to get down with y'all.. but flash this to him before he even comes over...
I wrote on the back of a paper a big "NO". And she holds it up and showed it to him before he sat down. Lol
More laughing and joking.
She actually wanted me to take a picture of her holding the sign. So I still have that.
But to be completely honest. Me and her both was like damn... This actually sounds like a good deal.
Timeshares all over the world. And you rent out the days you're not using. They'd just have to make a certain percentage and you keep the rest.
We definitely was not letting them know, that it was interesting...but it definitely was.
I would definitely do another timeshare presentation again, depending on the perks
my uncle has one in floridaI posted this in the MLM thread but this isn't exactly MLM. I have done the time share presentation two times actually.
the first time was like in 05 to get cheap disney tickets. if u know anything about disney, those tickets are damn near $100 each. for each park. so we were getting a deal where u get 3 tickets for 3 parks (we only had 3 people in my fam at the time) for like 275 bucks, which was pretty reasonable. anyways in order to get those discount tickets it cost us 2 hours, but they did give us breakfast. but that high pressure sales pitch is fukking awful
the 2nd time we were in the bahamas, and they said if we went to the time share seminar, they'd give us $300 cash. Me and the wife were all about that cash. anyways, the presentation is horrible. you can't just give them the upfront and get ur cash. first they wanna get you lunch, and then once ur full and ready to bounce, they hit u with the high pressure sales pitch. the pitch is pretty much the same each time, but you'd be suprised to see how many suckers fall for it. a time share is a waste of money, and ur taking a mortgage on something you can only use 2 weeks a year. mind you, u gotta pay property taxes and assessments (maintenence) on that joint. and if u think ur gonna sell.....shiiiittttt, good luck with that. our sales dude made a point to tell us about his family so we would feel bad when saying. after they exhaust all their rebuttals, they reluctantly gave us our money which we took to the casino. I remember it. that was like the ONLY time I have ever won at the casino. walked in with that $150, and came back with like $500 off craps.
The timeshares that I knew about before that presentation seemed the way you described.time shares have no perks. they are a total scam. and it's damn near impossible to get out of one or sell it. so even tho it's technically real estate, it essentially holds no value or builds you wealth.
