To whoever said TUG was a bunch of insiders, insinuating they are trying to deceive someone here, that is not the case. TUG stands for Timeshare Users Group. That is US. Anyone can join for a very nominal yearly fee, and there are great benefits to being a member as someone pointed out above. I am not currently a member, but was for one year, and saw the MANY benefits. One of the most important for everyone here that has been ripped off is the education provided on their site, such as Resort Reviews, etc... This will help future owners know where to buy, and where NOT to buy. One very important thing someone mentioned is that most of us bought our first timeshare from one of those high pressure salespeople, but then found the resale market out there. Resale timeshares 'can be' a very good thing, IF you know what you are buying, and don't overpay. I own several weeks and have only overpaid for maybe 2 of them, the ones I bought directly from the Resorts!
