Re: Selling Diamond Resorts Timeshare (by David H.):
When Diamond took over Flamingo on St. Maarten, we saw maint. fees FOR A STUDIO increase to over $1200 per year. We had owned since 1990 and felt we got our money's worth out of it. We sold our week for a song in order to save $1200 that was due the next month. St. Maarten has other problems with a lack of consumer protection laws for timeshare owners. I feel we got out at the right time. That may apply to other resorts too. Unless you're getting value for your time and money, it's better to take a quick loss and sell cheap rather than pouring money down a hole. We have found better resorts to own in that treat us with respect and are a good value. IMHO
