Re: Getting rid of your timeshare (by Gary M.):

Thus the reason for the new hat and that you’d completely missed the point.But, who is to blame for a person that signs on the dotted line to buy that timeshare that they no longer want and they no longer want to go by the rules in the legal contract stating maintenance fees will be due each year.BTW, did you try to GIVE your timeshare away and offer to pay closing .... if you did and couldn't even give it away then you (the all knowing) bought a timeshare in an area that has much more supply than demand or is in off season .... shame on you for not doing your homework in the first place and not researching timesharing backwards and forwards.
If you get tired of your truck are you going to go to the dealer and demand they take it back or are you going to give to it some scammer on the black market to destroy or steal so that you can claim insurance ..... sorry, it just doesn't work that way with ethical and moral people.
And socalled charities that take timeshares with no intention of ever paying a future maintenance fee letting it go into foreclosure are NOT ethical or MORAL.
At least Donate For A Cause tries to resale the timeshare on Ebay, however they take only timeshares they think they can resale in the first place .... they don't take timeshares with the intention of scamming the resort.

The difficulty discussing anything with you is, I (or someone else) can state information at least what we believe as fact, and rather than challenge its validity with equally believed facts based on ‘homework’, you interject completely made-up comments not based on anything, that throw the conversation into a tailspin. You’re like a woodpecker that has no wood.
Exactly what ‘homework’ did you use to come up with this little gem?
“BTW, did you try to GIVE your timeshare away and offer to pay closing .... if you did and couldn't even give it away then you (the all knowing) bought a timeshare in an area that has much more supply than demand or is in off season .... shame on you for not doing your homework in the first place and not researching timesharing backwards and forwards.”
If your memory can go back more than a day, you’d know I already answered this. My TS is in arguably the most beautiful locations in the country. Highly desirable, always full (partly because the resort now offers nights to most anyone, but that’s another industry shot in the foot problem), and low reserves to cover delinquent MFs, due to its high value and low delinquents. You also don’t any idea of my capabilities for doing ‘homework’. The answer may cause you consternation.
Why would you make something up you know nothing about and attempt to use it as an argument?
Have no fear my dear. There will become a point in time when Ive either completed my venture or just give up trying to make points to someone who’s so blatantly close minded and understand simple concepts. Either way, you’ll get the last word, I won’t care, you may never know the result and Redweek forum will continue to struggle to meet its potential as a source of premium information in all aspects of TS ownership, because of people like you.
