I called today to find out how much junior suites were selling for (I've owned one for 15 years) only to be told that the sales offices has been closed for 3 years!! Yes, I have been disappointed by the lack of availability and the high cost of maintenance, but I have continued to pay the taxes and maintenance fees. Most years I have been able to "sell" my days to people through ebay or personal word of mouth and cover most of the costs of maintenance. I knew right after I bought that it was probably a bad idea. I just had a feeling. The first few years we very much enjoyed going down and staying over night for a few days in the city. We live about 90 miles away from Manhattan. However, since then, we have several family members who live in Manhattan or close by, and as we have gotten older we don't go down as often. I am interested in selling this time share. Does anyone have any idea how much people are getting (if anything) for their time shares? I also wonder if it would be better for us to keep paying and wait until the AG settles this, but that could be never! [Q=chrisv126] dennisc283, your message makes complete sense. it will take much legal know-how to determine where we owners stand when this case (lawsuit/investigation/proceeding..........who knows?) is so-called "over" or has come to some sort of conclusion. it would be beneficial if the judge in adjudicating this case will include the fact that all of us owners have lost much of our financial interest due to our ownership at THE MANHATTAN CLUB: purchase price, lack of reservation use, exorbitant maintenance fees, et al. the judge should take the above facts into consideration when making a final judgement concerning how owners will be financially compensated by this illicit and fraudulent operation starting with the MC presentation lies, the lack of reservation time, the over 350% rise in our maintenance fees over the years of ownership. keep in touch chris[/Q]
