There's nothing in any of the official documentation, website or owner guide that says you can book anywhere, anytime. That's a completely bogus expectation made up by the plaintiffs You know when your booking window opens, if you choose to book at midnight at 10 months or noon the next day, or 4 months from then, that's on you.

There are sayings in life, "the early bird gets the worm", etc.

You get more out of everything in life what you put into it.

Or you get the scraps that are leftover...

I can't believe im almost defending wyndham here, but this claim is complete bullcrap
Whatever you say because others are not as smart as you

you made the case for the lawsuit when you mocked those owners who are not as smart as you. In many cases it was elder abuse when they were pressured to buy.

Also EVERYONE ELSE? You should check again and see how many people are still renting. Some of them I know and all their profit goes to Wyndham and they are bringing in a lot of money to Wyndham and threaten to stop making payments if they are prevented from renting.

IMO it would absolutely change the way many salespeople "pitch", knowing they are now on video/audio recording should any disputes come up!

though admittedly I dont ever see this becoming standard practice. sure wouldnt hurt for owners to record their own sales pitches on their phones though!
Of course if an owner is savvy enough to know to record the sales pitch, they’re probably savvy enough to know not to buy developer in the first place.

Also another question I wonder about. If I have been reading it correctly, and if I did not, I apologize. But there have been posts how the timeshare industry makes money taking back contracts and then reselling them.

If that is true, then why does a company like Wyndham spend a lot on lawyers to fight these lawsuits from those who want out and take them back and resell them. Obviously if they are suing for damages then I would understand. But if they are suing just to get out and their legal fees, then why not just take them all back instead of just the select one's they do?

I know people who are suing and that is all they want. They just want to get out of their contract which was denied and want no money damages other than their legal fees.
