I have read this thread and others describing how the timeshare companies have been doing all they can to discourage people from buying on the secondary market and read the shortsighted, misguided comments from people trying to defend them. First off, who are these people trying to sell their properties, they are most likely customers of these timeshare resorts that bought from the developers in the first place. No property makes it directly to the secondary market, it had to be bought from the developer first. He made his money and if he was smart he would do all he could to see his product held its value once it was sold. Instead, the developer is doing all he can to see the product he is selling you becomes worthless the minute you sign on the dotted line! Every timeshare owner needs to go to sales presentations every time they are offered and bring this up LOUDLY in a room full of prospective customers and let the developers know that we know they have screwed us and will screw these people instead of helping keep the value of their product up.
