When she said "the other side" regarding fletch, I took that as a reference to fletch's decision to become a TS sales person with Marriott. I don't recall seeing Fletch much at the other site.

 

[rickandcindy23]

I miss BocaBum99. He was great at advice, and we met him once on Oahu. He lives there. Maybe he doesn't live there, anymore. He had some brilliant sons, too.

Emmy was iconnections and Taffy something, and she seems to be having problems getting back to TUG. I miss her and need to just call. She and Peter were people we tried to see while on Maui. I hope they go in 2021. We plan on staying on Maui for at least six weeks next year. What else am I going to do with all of my weeks?

Ray Harper was the best, we met once and talked on here many times. He passed away.

I am fairly certain Fletch still around, but under a new name. Last I knew he had left Marriott and was working for Disney.

He was (or is) the most knowledgeable timeshare person I have ever seen on these boards. For those of use who have been around long enough will remember his 5-2-1 rule for buying timeshares.

Ok, you have me curious now. What is the 5-2-1 rule for buying timeshares?

All I know is the 5-2-1 rule to survive a timeshare presentation - 5 shots of tequila, 2 closed ears and 1 90 minute timer.

It appears he is now @jlf58

What ever happened to Fletch (2012)

Last time I heard he was with Marriot in there timeshare dept. I miss all the great information and help he provided to the group.

tugbbs.com

As I recall, the 5-2-1 referred to maximum price a person should pay for a "top flight" resale timeshare, such as a Marriott or DVC. $5k was the max for red season, $2k the max for white, $1k for blue. I think the 5-2-1 rule went out the window after the timeshare market crashed in 2008.

I tried calling Emmy a couple weeks ago and neither her home nor mobile numbers were active. Hopefully she and Peter are ok and healthy. We have met them a couple times when we at NCV and once in Maui.

Best regards.

I remember oldguy !

 

[AwayWeGo]

One thing that happened is lots of us became old guys also.

Middle age. Late middle age. Late-late middle age. Late-late-late middle age. Then geezerhood.

( Fret not. It beats the alternative. )

I don't believe Emmy has been active on Facebook for quite awhile either. She belongs to a group of ladies that I also belong to. I know some of them had been trying to reach her as well.

Big Frank introduced me to TUG.

There was also a very active English member from I think around Bristol ?? Cant recall name
..and Blues. He is still active ?

 

[kwelty]

Big Frank introduced me to TUG.

Big Frank (I think he is the same one) has his own TS message board, Timeshare Forums, but it's not very active. Carolinian is a moderator there and he use to post quite a bit here, but no more. I always wondered why they both left.
Carolinian was very knowledgeable about timeshares on the Outer Banks and his advice influenced me to purchase at the Outer Banks Beach Club, which I'm very glad that I did about 12 years ago.

Yeah, that board is all but but dead. Every once in a while I just check out the main page where it lists the threads with the latest activity, and there are usually only a handful that have had any activity in the last month.
