If someone could send me an owner referral for an SVO offer on Maui, that would be great. PM me please. Thanks!

I am interested for week of: January 22 to 29, 2016 can you do a referral?
So I was informed on tripadvisor that there is a Hawaii Timeshare Presentation deal where you can stay at a Starwood Hotel for 5 nights with $175 Avis Car Credit and $100 Resort Credit for $650, so long as you go to a presentation. I would love to take advantage, and was wondering if anyone knew if there was a link online or a specific code to mention when calling. I remember seeing something a little while back but it said you had to be from certain states, and I am from NY, one of the states that wasn't on there. I am planning on going to Maui sometime between Aug 24-Aug 31 of this year. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Dujvari!
Is your timeshare in Oahu or Maui? I'm looking for an opportunity to attend in Oahu next month.

I did this last year. I got a flyer in the mail, (thought) I'd read it closely to confirm that no timeshare presentation was required, and signed up.
When I got there, after checking in I was immediately sent to a representative who asked me what time I wanted to reserve for the presentation. I was pretty confused about it, and it was awkward, so I signed up for the least intrusive time I could think of.
Showed up at the appropriate time, and immediately explained that I wasn't interested in buying in. The kid (mid-20s) was eager, and I think he thought he could sway me. The tour took something like 90min, and every step of the way, my response was some variation of "This looks great. Thank you, but I'm not interested".
Last part of the presentation is when they sit you down and write a bunch of numbers on the board, telling you how great a deal you're getting (lol), etc. The kid brought in the sales manager, who did the whole "OK, what would you like to sign up for?" thing. For the millionth time, I told them I wasn't interested, but this time I (offhandedly) added that I told the woman at checkin that I wasn't interested either. The smile disappears from the sales manager's face. She says "She was supposed to tell you this wasn't mandatory". Gets up and walks out. No handshake, no goodbye, nothing.
So essentially, I told everyone I wasn't interested every step of the way, and was ignored. When it finally got to the end and it didn't go their way, I was kicked to the curb.
Thing is, I'd probably do it again if I was given the opportunity. I'd just be adamant that I wasn't interested in the presentation, and then go an enjoy Maui.

I submitted a request couple months ago. They did contact me but said they do not give out that kind of offers.
