So I had the owners upgrade presentation.
A little background is I’m a resale owner, purchased 7000 points for $3000 in December.
The sales rep meets you in the lobby, brings you up to the 57th floor (or close to it, wasn’t paying to much attention). My sales rep was trying to build rapport, basic questions about myself to break the ice. Got brought into his office and he said he will be right back, went to grab my owners file.
The whole presentation was about “elite” benefits. Funny how my original presentation last year was all about being a hgvc owner. This one was how elite is the only way to be an owner. He said if you’re not elite you won’t be able to use your points at any of the new resorts that they plan on opening up to 300 total.
The elite package he was offering was 15k points for $75000. But they were going to offer me a 1 time deal because I was resale to by back the deed at its original cost in 2008 of $30,000. And that if I did this I would have a “legitimate” deed. Funny word choice because I know my current one is “legitimate”. Funny tactics they use.
All in all $40,000 more plus triple fees I could get 15k points and be elite. All set with that. The extra benefits right now don’t mean that much to me.
Also forgot, they kept trying to tell me to buy in Hawaii and not Vegas, and again the last presentation was to buy in Vegas notHawaii.
Once he figured I wasn’t interested he just pushed me to the door. It was about 35/40 mins and I got my vouchers.
