Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Dks):

Has anyone been researching Bluegreen?....I have been reading all I can on the internet and it isn't pretty. Both Consumer Affairs and BBB have a plethora of complaints against Bluegreen which echo the same complaints we have had about TMC. Fraud, having a hard time booking, bait and switch in terms of expecting to get a particular type of property and getting something much less...etc. (The original owner, a Harry Patten of) Patten Realty Corp which eventually became Bluegreen had a bout of bad publicity in the '80's for deceptive marketing practices and that seems to be continuing with Bluegreen. Will this be a hopping from the frying pan into the fire situation? Wouldn't be surprised to find out there is a connection between Eichner and Bluegreen.
