Re: We Collect Timeshares, LLC (by KC):

For the unknowing or inexperienced, allow me to clearly describe exactly what "We Collect Timeshares" and "Timeshare Collectors" are:

They are so-called "Post Card Companies". They send out postcards to timeshare owners, offering (in somewhat vague terms, at first) their "help" in regard to transferring ownership of your timeshare. They then conduct "seminars", in which they "explain" the alleged dangers, pitfalls, evils, etc. of timeshare ownership. They next (oh so generously) agree to TAKE ownership of your timeshare from you *IF* you first pay THEM a few thousand dollars to take it. Apparently, there are people out there desperate enough to fall for this crap.

Ultimately, their "help" involves YOU paying THEM from $2500 to $4500 to "take the timeshare off your hands". This is where they make their money. If that timeshare next gets sold on eBay for $1, that's fine with them --- they made their money already when someone foolishly PAID them THOUSANDS of their hard earned dollars to take over the timeshare.

So, Jonathan Gibbs, I openly challenge you to come back to these Forums and claim that even ONE WORD of what I have described above is not completely and absolutely correct. I don't expect that you can or will ever do so, because I have stated the unvarnished and accurate truth....and nothing but the truth.

It's just inconceivable to me that someone would pay someone else thousands of dollars to "take" their timeshare. If you are so disenchanted that you are willing to give it away, spend $50 and auction it off on eBay yourself for $1.00. Throw in a $100 bill (or two!) as a bonus if you need to, but NO ONE needs to pay parasites like this thousands of dollars in hard earned money just to get rid of a timeshare.
