Capt. Jeff, very true. And, part of the high pressure sales technique is to make people feel guilty about walking away from the presentation. They don't buy because they want a timeshare.. they buy because they feel bad about leaving the poor salesperson empty handed after all that hard work.

And, is having timeshare on the island a good thing? Witness the first post on this thread. If timeshare pressure sales got out of hand on Ambergris Caye people like Aeriel wouldn't visit.

Finally, if you find someone that claims they're actually HAPPY they bought a timeshare, bear in mind that most Ford Pinto owners claimed they were happy with their cars...at least until they got rid of them.
