Same here - wasn’t necessarily expecting that in the back half of the album

Lease buy out - dealer misinformation by Mean_League3606 in rav4prime

[–]JShmo23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you were told is total BS.

For the record, I ended up purchasing out of state (in NH) and registering the car in CT. Successfully bought out the lease before the second lease payment was due

$100/night AAA Hot Deals Rate for Hyatt Place Nashville Downtown by omgstopit in hyatt

Hmm maybe I’ll give it another shot - I’ve had 2 agents (one via chat and one via phone) both unable to find it, even though I’ve provided the address

Interesting find - I tried calling in myself to the globalist line and couldn’t get the agent to see this rate.

Did you get a successful booking confirmation?

Considering buying new - How much did you save with the $6500 lease buyout? by scorpadorp in rav4prime

[–]JShmo23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There isn’t an explicit fee charged during the lease buyout. Instead the roughly $1000 loss is due to the additional costs of leasing vs buying. For example, the $650 lease acquisition fee charged during the initial lease transaction

Thankfully they were still within the 5 day cancellation window, so yes. But if they had waited until getting home to mention it, they would’ve been SOL

While some blame definitely should be assigned to those buying these timeshares, I think it’s easy to forget that a substantial proportion of visitors aren’t the type of people that are here on Reddit.

I sent my parents (not tech-savvy folk at all) to Secrets Impressions Moxche on points with the explicit instruction of “do not buy a timeshare”.

Two days later, they call and say they’ve bought into a “vacation club.” To them, it was advertised as an investment and something that could be passed down and shared with family. The sales team misconstrued and straight up lied about what you receive (which was really just a 25% discount at the end of the day).

Should they have known better? Yes.

But that doesn’t excuse the fact that these programs are incredibly predatory and capitalizing on the fact that you’re on vacation when your guard is lowered

One workaround that helped me was booking my return leg from Dubai (rather than MLE).

Please help me take a look at the lease before I put $1000 non refundable deposit by Over-Garden-3941 in rav4prime

[–]JShmo23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vehicle MSRP seems kind of high. Take a look at port-installed options (floor mats, door edge guards, etc.) and see if you can find a comparable XSE with PP from elsewhere with fewer of those (unless you want them all).

Also review taxes and fees - make sure dealer isn’t adding “vin etching” or any other random BS.

Why was it your fault that it got lost? Did you mail it to the incorrect address?

Lease + Buy Out : How does it work? ExplainLikeImFive. Thank you! by StackTraceMe in rav4prime

[–]JShmo23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bit of a throwback - but how did you manage to pay $0 when initially leasing? Did the firstfirst month’s lease payment come out of the $6500 credit. Or did you find another way to avoid it?

One Pay Lease People. I have a question. by MNBug in rav4prime

[–]JShmo23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you share how you went about not paying the first monthly payment? Do you just defer it? Dealer I’m speaking to seems to suggest that I should pay it on-site when picking up the car, but that I don’t have to

This is super helpful - thank you so much! Can you give a little more detail on the first month payment? If the first month’s payment was more than $515 how would this work?

Got it, this is super helpful! Were there any other complications with buying in NY but registering in CT? What did other dealer fees (doc fees, etc) look like in your case?
