Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Colleen P.):

The New York Attorney General is not obligated to benefit or support the owners, only protect the state of New York real estate. All your letters going to him will help them win, but we do not have a class action lawsuit that would help owners. And I don't want to be excluded because I live in AZ. I think they should just turn it into a hotel (since that's what they're doing anyhow) and give the owners back the money they paid - at least the purchase price. Over a decade I have given much more money in the ridiculous fees with than the original cost. And this was a donation to them - because I rarely got anything in return. I was only able to use "my" home property twice and those weren't full weeks - the rest of the time I had to pay to rent out from other owners because I couldn't book time there. After a while - I just went to other hotels in NY because a) it was cheaper and b) it made me angry to stay there and rent from someone else when I owned there! For the total we ended up paying out so far - I basically paid $2,500 a night to stay there. I paid their bills while they ran to fill their rooms to make more money with it. The reality is we need to do something drastic as owners with good representation and not rely on the Attorney General. They will probably try give everyone some settlement of a free week long stay or something trivial. After someone stealing $30K from me, that does not sound like a fair compensation.
