Thanks to the wonderful information on these message boards, I am planning to rescind our recent purchase through developer (yep, bought it hook, line, and sinker). We stayed at the KL via a promo package. Our deal:what we thought was King's Land HGVC package-- EOY 7000 points $24K, with 21000 bonus HGVC points. The 21K bonus points was what really pushed us over the edge to buy. But after getting home and doing some financial modeling, the deal didn't look so good in the long run, which gave us second thoughts about the whole thing.
But what made us more definitive was what we have found to be deceptive practices. When we were reviewing the papers with the agent, at NO time did she mention that we were buying a DIFFERENT property, the HGVC at the Waikoloa Beach resort! The title mentioned "Kohala Coast Vacation Suites", which we thought was the King's Land, where we stayed. We would never buy something that we have not experienced. Shame on the sales person for misrepresentation when reviewing the documents with us!
another deceptive practice that we didn't appreciate is the way they photocopied the contract that was signed. While most contracts are "portrait", they photocopied it in "landscape" mode. To make the page fit in landscape, they need to shrink the document to fit "sideways". What this means is a regular size 10 font becomes a size 7 font --> harder to read. Also they print the contract on two sides of the paper, making the contract VERY awkward to follow from page to page. I gotta think this is deliberate as it makes no sense to photocopy the documents the way they do.
I plan to UPS as well as send my rescission notice via register US mail.
Again, thanks to all you seasoned TS owners out there. This newbie is very grateful
