After sitting through a 4 hour timeshare spiel, they offered us a "weeks" 2 bedroom unit that had a 20,000 points value for $32,000. I knew that was a extremely poor offer and said no. Then they went through a few more iterations of various offers which we declined. The final offer (have 24 hours to decide) was a 2 bedroom unit with a lockout 1 bedroom that has a 67,000 points value for $5,500 with an annual maintenance fee of $839. Is this a good/fair/poor offer?
Also, the agent made two statements during the spiel that we question their veracity.
1) Currently, we only own points. He said that we should add a weeks unit to our portfolio. The reason is that points owners see only points resorts and weeks owners see just weeks units when searching available inventory. So by owning both you get to see all of them. Is this true?
2) When searching inventory a 20,000 points owners will see less availability than someone who has 100,000 points. Is this true?
We suspect both are false.
