redbaron80 Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 (edited) Hey guys, I just spent two Grueling hours at this time share meeting in Santa Clara tonight. You have heard it before, go for the free gift right. It is a total sales pitch. They POUR on the pressure like you cannot imagine. This is my 2nd time and I still have not bought anything from them. They cost 15 GRAND. I got my COUPON for TWO to a 3-day CARNIVAL cruise to Mexico. I gotta send the coupon in tomorow and they mail me the tickets. I will keep you guys posted as to whether the gift is for real ,looks like it is good. If you are thinking about this, be prepared to be intimidated, harassed and pressured beyond belief. Out of 12 of us, 2 ( including me ) did NOT buy a time share. Just wanted to guys everybody a heads up Christian Edited December 14, 2007 by redbaron80 Quote Official Scores at the Dash. and YES.

All these things are scams. Just like the free car giveaway at the mall, and then they wounder why their phone is blown up with telemarketers Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbaron80 Posted December 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 (edited) 1. Man, I can't believe you fell for that shit.2. All these things are scams. 3. Just like the free car giveaway at the mall, and then they wounder why their phone is blown up with telemarketers 1. The only reason I did it was to see IF anything is " FREE ". It was a waste of my time, so Yeah i fell for that.. LOL 2. YES, all scams, even when u DO buy the TIMESHARE they screw you, I have talked to a few owners, a few are suing them for false advertisement, and they say there favorite places is ALWAYS " UNAVAILABLE/BOOKED "... x2 ..

Ipod Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 There is a saying in this world that I will never forget " There is no such thing as a free lunch " i agree with you on that. my Econ teacher back in high school told us.. now, i look at every thing with different perspectives.

cmrs2k Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 You have to pay 300 in port fees... Thank God you are talking about a cruise, otherwise we would all be in debt. Ok, the real bit I wanted to add was this: My first time in Las Vegas, we walk into our hotel and attempt to find the front desk (that is really a tough act sometimes). My older sister who is a very seasoned traveler is approached by a man in a suit, wearing a name tag who spouts off something like "Welcome to the Stratosphere! Come this way so we can get you all your free gifts..." He was not able to finish his pitch because he was foolish enough to put his hand on her shoulder. In addition to traveling often, my sister put herself through law school by teaching Tae Kwon Do, not the WTF or ATA junk, but chung do kwan. He was instead helped to a one way trip to the ground. When it was clear that we would not be dealing with legal ramifications, I asked her about it, and she explained that people like him did not work at the hotel/casino, that they were time/share salesman. I spent the rest of the trip seeing these freaks and avoiding them The next trip, while beating on them would probably be more fun, since it would bring trouble, I changed to another tactic. When approached by any salespersons, my response was "no speaky english!" I was left alone very quickly after that. Sorry, kind of off, but kind of on topic.

cmrs2k Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Sorry for the adder, but I feel that I need to clear one thing up. I do not mean to offend any ATA or WTF people specifically. I have met some that I feel are excellent martial artists. I make my negative comments because in my opinion, those organizations and their affiliates sell a watered down version of a truly devistating martial art. If you pay the money, you can get a black belt in a 2-4 yrs regardless of skill. That is like pulling an empty gun on someone. Sorry for the thread jack on that one. I'm done.
