Well, dinner sure was nice there Wednesday night, unless you count leaving. Luckily I knew what to do. From behind me I hear this'; Hey, what are you guys doing for fun while on vacation'; I turned and knew instantly I had a scum bag from a timeshare lookin me in the face. I lied, ';We%26#39;re leaving in the morning'; . Then he says well I%26#39;ll give you 100 dollars if you stop by my hotel. I said no thanks. As I walked off he said how about 200 dollars. I told him to forget it. he follows me all the way to my car, demanding I come to his hotel. Offers me 2 free vacations. At this point, after a lousy meal(nowhere near worth the price) and this guy givin me grief while I%26#39;m trying to relax. I snapped. I told the wife to put our little girl in the car and I got back out. Except this time I wasnt so polite. I proceeded to profanely berate him for about 10 minutes, got in my car and left. I bet he thinks twice before hitting up someone again. I%26#39;d say at that point he%26#39;s lucky I didnt get anymore ill lol. BTW, if you dine anywhere with Calabash in the title I bet ya anything you run into one after dinner. I started noticing. All of em had em. Shame on Benjamins for this. You pay more for the experience(nice pirate btw) Not to be hassled. Just thought I%26#39;d share.
Original Benjamin's Dinner
...must have been a slow night for him....
I%26#39;ve never had one chase after me like that doubling the offer. They must be getting desparate.
I have never cared for salespeople in general but time share salespeople are arguably the most despicable sub-stratum of the species.
Even snapping out %26amp; profanely berating them doesn%26#39;t work...believe me, if you had not gotten back in your car %26amp; drove off he would have ';gone right back to work'; without missing a beat, and he probably accosted his next victim as he walked back through the parking lot.
Original Benjamin's Dinner
Most of the time I will either completely ignore them and not even acknowledge they are talking to me or beforehand find the name of a nearby town and say we are from there, thus ';locals'; and not potential customers. Gatlinburg is terrible for timeshare salesmen too.
Actually, the only time I have been hit up after eating was at Benjamins and my hubby almost fell for talking to them so I was practically dragging him to the car trying to tell him that the man wasn%26#39;t part of the restaurant so I am sure that is how they hook people. For the price, you would think that they wouldn%26#39;t allow that at their door.
Wow ,you must be a real tough guy.Cursing someone out in a parking lot for 10 minutes.Honestly never had one of these solicitors become that annoying to me.
Short fuse I guess lol. I drive a rock truck on a surface mine for a living. My times my time what can I say lol
I go to the presentations and take there money and run. I go every 6 months I haven%26#39;t paid for a beach trip in in 2 years due to them.
