Re: Disclosures and honesty in selling!(even resales) (by R P.):

Unfortunately this happens a lot with resales. Many private sellers don't even know WHAT they own as some have never even been to their timeshare (they bought to trade), so they just put whatever comes to mind in their ads.

Resale companies don't know many times what they're selling and can give incorrect info on ads. I have witnessed this many times.

Hi. I have personally tried to buy a resale where the seller misrepresented the maintenance and other fees. This was not on ebay but here on Redweek. I received my deposit back, but I had about $125.00 of out of pocket costs which I incurred. I did complain to Redweek and they made the seller change their ad. Unfortunately, there are a number of unethical people in the world. Stan.
