Re: Is Getting Rid of Timeshares a Problem? (by Dennis L.):

Your analogy: Try "returning" a car, house or refrigerator to the seller after CHOOSING to buy it and then using it for years before deciding you don't want it any more.” The difference is that there is a financial end option when owning a car, a refrigerator or even a house.

I have had my timeshare for 15+ years and have probably paid more in just maintenance fees than many timeshare owners have paid for their timeshare property in total. I cannot use my timeshare because units are unavailable due to overselling. I cannot deed back my timeshare because sales transactions are closed. I cannot even give my timeshare away. Who would accept ownership for something that cannot be used and pay thousands of dollars per year for maintenance fees….would you?
