Time Share - Puerto Vallarta Tourist Traps

I need to say YES to timeshare presentations. But you gotta know how to take full advantage of them. I am basing my next vacation to Puerto Vallarta because of information I just got in Playa Del Carmen. There is a system to this. Get familiar with it. We travel all over free...

OK, first, Mexico allows every tourist opportunity to eat free, get free stuff, and most of all pay for your vacation through these presentations every 12 months. Understand, that you can bargain for what you want. If time is really that precious to you, ask for big bucks. in PVR right now they are paying up to $200 CASH US money. Seriously, in PDC (I just got home today) they were paying $180 each time). Do one for 8am and AUCE breakfast, then another at lunch for another big money. Get one guy for the whole week. They get $50 ave to take you each time. Tell him you are here to make money for each of you. They love that. Then go, make small talk, eat, take the tour, and when they start talking money, say you are adding an addition to your house and havent got the extra money right now, or are getting ready to sell your business or retire within one year and are just beginning to check out the programs. Or simply say "No, I dont like the property (too big, not the right activities)" and get up. Your contract says 90 minutes (from the time the salesman gets you), so eat quickly. We made $810 this week in PDC (which was $140 profit after paying the trip). Play their game. Oh, dont tell them you have ever been to a presentation before.

I look at it this way, what else do I have to do at 8 in the morning? Where else can I go "to work" at 8am and get off at about 2pm, have two meals (usually buffets) and have nearly $400 in my pocket, and the rest of the day to spend on the beach? But if you think these are not for you, then do the following: do not pay any attention to the hawkers. If you make eye contact, just say No thanks and continue walking. I spent this last week with our new contact, and he explained his job VERY well. I stood by him and watched and listened to him telling me what they look for. They are looking for the "white" people (they have just arrived and might want to take some tours - and get talked into the timeshares). Subjects must be American, Canadian, or English only. They must be between 30-70 years old, a couple, and seemingly with money. They also look for people wearing bracelets from other resorts, because these people are accustomed to paying big bucks. Use this info to your advantage. MOST OF ALL, YOU MUST BE WILLING TO SAY "NO THANK YOU" and stick to it. And, last, GET IT IN WRITING, whatever you want (ask for it!)
