    You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time

    Easiest way is to bung timeshare into eBay. Lots for a penny.

    Not for the fainthearted or gullible. The presentation is really slick. Be prepared for insults if you don't buy.

    I have been on about five over the years and never bought or even considered buying.

    The girl on the phone is unlikely to be the one hammering you for a sale hour after hour - she gets paid if you go
