Since Westgate bought out our first TS resort, this is not good news! The last time we were in Williamsburg we thought we'd stop and see the Westgate resort there. We were told to come back the next day for lunch and we'd also get an update on Westgate since we were not well acquainted with its structure. Well, we came back. The man who invited us was not there but a lady sat us down and tried to get us to buy into a "real Westgate". This would give us Red status instead of White in choosing weeks. She advised against buying into Williamsburg, however, since it does not have the highest exchange power. And, of course, we'd want one which we ourselves would want to go to--because we'd still have to pay a large exchange fee to visit another Westgate. At that point, we said no thanks and she was done with us. No lunch. No chance to see the resort. Not impressed. MD

That's typical Westgate. From what I've read they are the worst sharks (salespeople) in the industry. They will wear you down and simply will not take no for an answer. Glad you got away without being pressured into buying.
