planet hollywood: I just sat through a solid, but stock, timeshare, pitch for the new Planet Hollywood Tower by Westgate. Thinking about doing a deal and want to know if anyone has any info both pro or con.|||hello!!! Ok please listen carefully, DO NOT BUY A TIMESHARE!! Especially from the developer. We owned a westgate timeshare in Vegas, we paid too much, couldn't sell it and ended up donating it (even that was a process) You could buy the same timeshare they told you about for a couple of thousand dollars. Don't believe what they say, a timeshare DOES NOT have a resale value. Only buy it if you know you are going to use it every year, but DO NOT buy it as a real estate investment. Don't forget, you have your yearly assessments, which go up all the time. They could even hit you with a "special" assessment at anytime. Ok, if you don't believe me go on ebay, people are trying to sell it for 1.00! That's right one dollar! and they still can't Want horror stories, check out the link below. http://en.allexperts.com/q/Time-Shares-1鈥?/a> Also, you could buy a timeshare for so cheap!! www.sellmytimeshare.com www.redweek.com www.timeshareprofessionals.com/ Westgate is a scam, if you don't believe me, google it! Look at the very first question on all experts, it's about Planet Hollywood....The disgruntled owner mentioned by Pat in the email is me!|||yea yea.. i have bought into those 2 times..(not that company) "first time shame on me..second time shame on them" happened both times..just sounded 2 good to be true..so of course it wouldn't happen the 2nd time..but did.. the 2nd time i got a full refund.. what happened to me..was once i bought..and i travel off season..nothing available..all sold out.. 2nd timeshare ...both times i tried to book..and i kept all my receipts...and notes...to get the full refund..2 times on the 2nd ownership when i wanted to go nothing was available but i went anyhow..and went to the units..and yea there was openings...... anyhow..i kept my notes and got a refund..and travelled on my own and found i did better booking on my own.|||Timeshare can be good if you buy for the right reasons. By the way the right reasons are never a financial investment. NEVER buy from the developer. You can get the same product for 90% less in the resale market.
