  • On a recent trip to Vegas, we got roped into the timeshare scam by Grandview Resorts. We were approached on the strip by a blonde lady named Robin and offered two pairs of free show tickets plus a free buffet breakfast if we could suffer through an hour presentation after. We were told the hotel we'd be touring was just down the strip from where we were staying at Excalibur so we figured, knowing it would be sales pitch that we wouldn't take, two hours of our time was worth two free pairs of tickets. I really wanted to see a show while on vacation. Um no. All lies. We boarded a charter bus from our hotel on the strip with a bunch of other suckers around 10 am. We drove for 30 minutes on the freeway. Got off the bus and were ushered into the lobby of some hotel in the middle of nowhere. Upon arrival, there was no food as promised. (The saleswoman on the strip had insisted that we don't eat before we go so we were totally hangry at this point and annoyed that the hotel was so much further than we were told.) We waited in the lobby until 11 am. Some salesman retrieves us and has us get in another car to travel to yet another property 10 minutes away where we were told the food would be. (We're about an hour in at this point.) In the car, we told the salesman that we were told the hotel would be on the strip. "This is the strip," he replied. "Technically, we're on Las Vegas Blvd still and this will all be connected by 2020." Seriously, dude? That's when we asked to be taken back to the hotel and given our money back. We wasted 2 hours of our day. Got no free show tickets, no food and had to argue to get our money back. Don't fall for the scam! The 2-3 hours does not include travel time. It's more like 4-5. The hotel is not down the strip at all. (They'll tell you anything to get you there.) It's quite far from the strip and in the middle of nowhere. There are plenty of ways to find discounts in Vegas on shows and other fun. You don't need to attend this scam for free tickets. Totally not worth it. PS The salesman said we could complain, but warned us that this was such a successful pitch that the company would not care about two people complaining. Comforting. Shame on you, Grandview!
