Why are people under selling everyone?

Noticing the last few ads which are way below the price of what a cheap hotel room costs, let alone getting a 2 and 3 bedroom condo. I realize it is a tough market right now and I also have not rented much, but what purpose does under selling your unit make? At the new rental fee rates posted, none of us are going to break even let alone make even a small profit. These fees figure out to be less than a dollar per square foot of usable living space in the units at Bonnet. As an owner I am concerned that these prices do adversely affect how people view the quality of the units. I wonder if it doesn't cheapen the units that are for rent? Most of us know that cheaper rarely means quality and isn't it quality for a reasonable price that sells?

I agree, I had a friend that went to six flags of St.Louis
did not have a hotel booked, she paid 198.00 for a regular room with barely enough room to walk between beds, and we have a hard time getting 100.00 night for so much more. I have found I save money with cooking also, so this makes our timeshare more valuable. Try going to a web page for Wesconsin Dells 2 bedroom, they are listed by companies for over 300.00 night some as high as 600.00 night. Im sure they rent them too. Since I have used my timeshare I would have gladly paid
150.00 and up per night for a two bedroom unit. I wish I would have just rented from owners rather than buy myself. We have gotten in over our heads thanks to a smooth talker saying he was buying back our Florida property and putting us in Las Vegas with a much lower yearly maintence fee. He took our Tennessee property not the Florida and put 20,000 on credit cards, he said we had so much equity Wyndham was financing this at 2.99 percent, like a home equity type loan, later when we arrived home we got the regular credit cards which will go up to 14.99 percent. Im just beside myself and trying to rent some of my points just to keep them from beating us. If everyone is renting too low I may as well take my loss and let my property go back to the resort and rent myself from others I will come out ahead in the long run.. Wish I could find others like me and get a lawyer to take this to court to fight the scamming they end up doing to people. I know several that just stopped making payments and lost the money paid in to their timeshare. These companies are making so much money from this type of sale.

owners may not be your only competition, employees can rent empty rooms to "friends" and family for 2.75 per thousand. thats less than $50 bucks a night for a one bedroom inthe low season at the creek........

if this smooth talking rep gets more than three or four letters from the top (corporate) he will not only loose the commision from the sale but also his job... no love loss some of these guys are making 200k a year lying to people..... take it from an ex employee, and my best year i made 76k being a honest rep.

Can you be a little more specific with how to exactly address a letter to corporate, that is, who to mail it to? Thank you for your insights.

I recently got a break and found a two night opening in a 2 bedroom Presidential at Wyndham Glacier canyon in the Dells. I took 4 teen agers along as a birthday gift to one of my children. We had a great time and the facility there is really something to enjoy if you ever get a chance...come to Wisconsin.
