I don't know which are the biggest scammers, the upfront fee timeshare resellers or the scammers such as Timeshare Relief which will take $3500 of your hard earned money to rid you of your unwanted timeshare.

And around and around we go. We've had this discussion before, and it was starting to become sensible: there's no way that I would say that all timeshares are bad, nor would you say that no timeshares are bad. But we agree, for reasons that other people have listed above, that some timeshares are bad. In the very worst of these cases, they're so bad that they can't be resold. Hence the need for a company to take them.

Because companies want to make a profit, and because companies have to cover their costs and risks, Timeshare Relief has to charge an upfront fee when taking over a bad timeshare. If they charged an egregious amount, they would instantly be met with another company doing the same thing for less. Simple market forces. A company can't overcharge, at least not for long, without getting undercut by a competitor -- and there is more than one company that is in this business, by the way.

This is all pretty logical, right? So let's cut it out with the wild condemnations and admit that companies like Timeshare Relief are legitimate players in the industry.
