Tiemshare 101

Hints:

How do we scam the greatest "price" for listening to a timeshare?.

• Ask for a firm time commitment, and set a countdown clock on your phone.
• Evelyn, what was the best price you got? Where? $200 Gift Card?
• What do we say to make us look like the biggest fish?
• What not to do?
• Gift Certificates are usually crappy. Not great deals, just regular Coupons. Don't fall for the "$500 value" promise.
• Plan out your timeshare presentation in advance
• Do it first thing in your day, and after a few drinks to make it tolerable
• Embellish your wealth and earnings.
• Bring a "Bad Cop"
• Be agreeable. The salesman thinks he has a sale, and speeds through the presentation. Then politely decline.
• Tell them you have a deadline you have to get to.
• One technique to help you decline: Pull out a calculator, add up the value of all their promises, and add up all you will have to pay
• Expect these comebacks to your excuses, and have a rebuttal ready!:
  • Can't afford it? But it's less than you spent on one night at your last hotel!
  • Can't afford it? How did you pay for your current vacation.
  • Don't travel enough? You will when you have this sweet-ass timeshare!
• Excuses:
  • I can't commit to any long term plans cause I'm leaving my husband soon.
  • Mom paid for my vacation because my dad just died.
  • Political Unrest in the U.S.
  • Global Warming will make desert-places inhospitable
