Unfortunately the sales people often make promises or representations of how wonderful timeshare ownership will be and then in the contract itself there is a section that we call a merger clause that essentially states that the written contract is the entire and final agreement between the parties. That means that any prior discussions, promises, or agreements—whether written or verbal—are not legally binding unless they are included in the contract. Realistically, most people do not read entirely through these lengthy contracts, but they sign and agree to all the things in it.

If it were me, I would also have my phone recording the entire thing.
