We just went to HGVC Marbrisa sales presentation.
We were also told that if we bought Marbrisa on resale that we could only use it during the deeded week without being able to convert to points. Is this true?
...demand to see the federal right-of-rescission form...
I have been known to take printouts of eBay resale offers into the presentation, placing them on the table at the appropriate point.It has been suggested before on this thread, but we use 2 magic words: TUG and eBay, and tell them what we paid for our resale timeshares ($50 and $10). That usually ends it pretty quickly.
1. There is no "federal" right of rescission form. It is regulated by each state, individually.
B. There is no "form." It is a notice you compose yourself. There is a sample here on TUG.
Lastly, do not offer to sign anything -- would you sign your own death warrant?
It may not be as serious, but think of it as signing your soul over to the devil.
You may intend to rescind, but the best laid plans of mice and men often go astray. (Robert Burns)
Isn't that quote from the book "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck and the subsequent 3 movies. The first 1937 movie was by far the best and most dramatic with Burgess Meredith and Lon Chaney Jr.

I just took part in one. I had no intention of buying...
It did go a little longer than 2 hours but we did have a lot of questions and we bought into the $1695 offer before quickly rescinding the next day!
Be polite, don't ask a lot of questions, don't offer a lot of information, always say "no", be aware of the time, and have an obligation scheduled shortly after the allotted time. (However, I do always enjoy finding out about the new properties and changes to the programs)
So, let's just internalize the fact that timeshare salespeople are one of the top 3 lying professions of the world, just behind politicians and ahead of army recruiters. Even the timeshare we really like has some duplicious clauses in the contract.From my personal experience, just like SmithOp mentioned, they claim that resales do not get RCI. Another thing they say is that resale prices are low because they are behind in maintenance payments.
Did you really make an appointment somewhere else after the 2 hr mark? Why does everyone seem to take the 1695 offer and then rescind the next day? Do you take this as just a way to escape?So, let's just internalize the fact that timeshare salespeople are one of the top 3 lying professions of the world, just behind politicians and ahead of army recruiters.

We can be polite and still say without rancour:
1. no thank you, time's up, where's my incentive, please.
2. We think we can find this for 1/10th the price on TUG.com. Could you please bring the ___________ we were promised, we'd like to go now.
3. (Smiling) This is the 3rd time. No thank you, we have another obligation right now, could you bring the ______ we were promised now?
4. (Smiling) This is the 4th time, we need to be somewhere else. Please bring the ______ and we'll leave.
Good questions.Did you really make an appointment somewhere else after the 2 hr mark? Why does everyone seem to take the 1695 offer and then rescind the next day? Do you take this as just a way to escape?
