Something many do not consider, especially here at Tug, is that timeshares are considered a fun luxury item. The people that develop these do so for profit and there are many expenses and regulations regarding timeshares. The people that buy these usually understand that timeshares are luxury items and want them because they are desirable. The problem is created because timeshare companies are selling their product to people that can't afford a timeshare which debases the product.

I've tried to leave this alone, but . . . luxury items are owning your own place on Sanibel, Captiva, Boca Grande, et al . . . . Timeshares have always been pitched to ordinary, middle-class people, as a means to provide affordable vacations in nicer facilities than traditional motels.
