Timeshare shop

May 18, 2023 08:53PM
I signed up to do a shop where I go to a timeshare presentation and record the shop. I have done a lot of shops, but never this one. It seems like a nice little getaway though, and I'm looking forward to it. Any of yall done this type? How'd you like it?

They send you the device to record with. It's simple enough. Just pay attention to surroundings. There are some questions to fill out even though the audio recording is what is most important. Read and study the questions they ask so you can answer them. It is NOT a hard shop.

The 2-3 hour window for the presentation is way off. I have done 4 of these and the last one swore me off them for good. It was 5 hours because I got passed to a higher up then that higher up's higher up and wind up telling them you need to think about it repeatedly. Nowhere did the guideline state the shopper can end the session. You must endure until they have drained you out of every last reason why you cannot commit.

Some locations / properties are worth it and some are not. I am sorry to say my shop this month was canceled. I was really looking forward to it.

I have done many of these. They are easy if you follow the directions. They will send you the recorder. The company is easy to work with. The places you stay are generally nice.

I've done them. Agree, usually a nice property. They will send you the recorder. The MSC is great to work with.

The last one I did wasn't terribly long was 2 to 3 hours. I just kept saying that we're doing some business expansion and I can't take the credit hit and my financial advisor would kill me if we did that right now and we got out fairly quickly..

Since the client is not named, would you mind sharing the name of the MSC?

I have completed quite a few of these. I love them. It’s satisfying to know that this recording will be heard by the time share companies. The presenters can be pretty mean at times when you say no- and you have to say no.
