Re: Get the Resale Scammers on T.V.

I will point out a very interesting part of their BBB Rebuttal........... "In the few instances where we have had a minor complaint, we have addressed and resolved it immediately! And on the rare occasion when it does happen, itÂ’s usually due to a seller who has an unrealistic idea of what their timeshare is worth." ***A seller who has an unrealistic idea of what their timeshare is worth*** well why does the seller have an unrealistic idea of what their timeshare is worth??? That's simple....the sales reps for timesharemls.org and any other advance fee resale company convince the timeshare owner that they are going to make a profit from their unit and thus plant in the mind of the timeshare owner the "unrealistic idea of what their timeshare is worth"!! One of the key selling points these companies have is to convince a timeshare owner they own at a hot property and they'll easily sell it for a profit above what they initially paid. In Anthony's case Chet is trying to sell him on renting the unit out for $2500 or more. Many resale reps will now just try to sell a timeshare owner on this. Same thing as in the "selling the timeshare" sales pitch, get the owner to think they can make a lot of money year after year letting them rent out their property. Keep in mind, the traffic their website generates is very small, especially compared to what redweek gets or tug. You are much better off placing an ad here or tug or another site geared towards people who are actually looking for a timeshare in Orlando or any other location. Reedweek, tug and the others generate a great deal of targeted traffic. The resale companies generally just generate traffic from timeshare owners checking out the site before they buy the companies resales/rent ad package or by timeshare owners who keep checking their ad to see why they haven't gotten any offers on their property.
