Just returned from Land'or - dingy and dumpy as ever. They tried to sell us a Point System. We told the woman that we did not trust any ideas the owners come up with. Talked with many unhappy people who have been duped, just as we were. Yesterday we got a letter with a "confidential" buy out. For a mere $9,xxx.xx we could be released from the contract - we own outright and this number, we figure is maintenance for the 9 weeks we have remaining on our contract. We also have 5 comp weeks - I think I will retire and just stay there a month or so. Anyone wlse get a letter like this (unsolicited).
When you say you own outright, does that mean you paid a lump sum at the beginning of your contract for X amount of year, and now you are finishing your 9 remaining years on contract? We paid $8500 up front in 1986 with a stupid 40 year contract. How dumb could two people be?????!!!!
