Re: Impossible to sell or even give away this Gem?

[Q=joet72] I've moved out of country and no longer find any value in owning (and paying $392 maintenance fees for) a floating week at the Christie Lodge. I've made numerous attempts to sell the week and even a few to give it away (would this site be any different?) with no luck. Apparently a few folks on Ebay feel the same way (last add I saw was a "Buy Now" for $4. I've even offered to Quit Claim it back to Christie Lodge but was given an emphatic "We're not accepting weeks back at this time". So let me understand this. Company A pressure-sells company B's product to me for $8000 (hindsight: if they have to use pressure, it's not worth it). Now B wants the world to "Experience the comfort of the newly remodeled product," but won't take the $8000 week back for FREE? Oh and by the way, where's company A? Ok, so I'm a little bitter. By the looks of it, at least 35 other owners on this site are as well. Just throwing this out there and searching for options.[/Q] You must have a really bum week, as We have owned for more than 15 years, and when we rent, we have people queing up for thwe two weeks we own 51 and 52. The sales are also like gold dust for these weeks. Vail/Beaver Creek ski ing is the best in the world, and the facilities that the Christie lodge have beat many of the areas very expensive resorts. The staff are top rate, and the only reason we have rented this year is because we have bought a condo in the area, as we love Avon/Beaver Creak/Vail so much. It is really lovely in summer too, as the hiking and fishing are second to none. Maybe it is your attitude that people are put off by. Chill out, and enjoy what you have.
