Re: Planet Hollywood towers in Las Vegas (by R P.):

cathc, I haven't the foggiest idea what such a week would be worth since the resort hasn't even been built yet, but the main issue of importance is what it's worth to you. It's not a given your week would be rented when you don't choose to go to Vegas week 52 of every year.

The resort hasn't even been built yet, that's why I think you are taking a chance in even considering paying such cash on something that won't even be finished until 2009.

From what I've gathered, reading the links you provided, they have rethought the idea of doing the glass exterior (too expensive). What other changes are in the future AFTER you have signed on the dotted line?

These kinds of projects need your money (buyer of a timeshare week or whole ownership of a condo) to continue their work. That's how developers do.

Whether to buy or not is something you'll have to decide yourself ... is it worth that kind of invesment for one week of timeshare a year when it's not a given your unit could be rented when you are not using it? That's the main question.

There are thousands of people that own timeshares where the developer salesperson told them they could make a lot of money by renting. If that was the case then you wouldn't see thousands upon thousands of timeshares for rent and for sale in the market place if it was a profit making venture.

Hi Jayjay

Thanks for the wishes.

What do you think is the fair price for a 2 bed room deluxe (8 to 10 sleeper, 1400 sq. feet, 3 plasma 52 inch wall attched TV's, Water show of bellagio can be watched from Bedroom, attahced to the world class casino (first and only in timeshare), 2 jagguzi w/spa, lights, all amenities, TV postions all remote controlled, equatorial sandy beach in the towers, direct bridge link to city center) for week 52?

Its more than a 5 star resort on the heart of the strip? I would like to get your opinion on the pricing for week 52?

What do you think on the renting propects from Dec 26 to Jan 1 ( for week 52)?

I would really like to get your opinion from you.

Thanks in Advance.
