Our salesperson would not take take no for an answer. He and his manager more or less told us that our marriage was doomed if we didn't buy from them (under the guise of "not spending quality vacation time with each other.") TWO HOURS later we were freed from our misery (but not before being passed off to one last person for a final pitch).
Oh, I almost forgot - their other angle was that it would guarantee "good nookie - because hotel nookie is the best nookie."
The 100 bucks in vouchers just isn't worth it, IMHO.
PS - I would not suggest taking this book out in public - while definitely a great resource, it is DESPISED by locals for various reasons, all of which I am sympathetic to.
OMG I almost fell of the chair laughing so hard! Thats original "good nookie" I bet you don't hear that too often with a timeshare pitch! Can you tell me the name of the guy so if we choose to do it that we don't get him, or if we do, we can make fun of him at the very least? We will think of something original to say to him before he can get " nookie" out of his mouth! Thanks for the advise about Maui Revealed, we will keep it on the down low. I have my daughter-in-laws sister living there to guide us anyway.
