I have heard plenty of complaints from people who were tricked into sales presentations in Florida, but not by this company. Customers were held captive for much longer than advertised, and the companies tried to avoid giving the goodies that were advertised. "Cash" would become "vouchers," for example. If anyone implied they could not afford what was being sold (generally time shares), they would be told that they breached the basis for the sales presentation and would not be entitled to any goodies whatsoever. Of course, this comes at the end - not the beginning.
As a result, despite my penchant for freebies, I have avoided these.
In addition, as an attorney I have represented people who have tried to sell time shares back. The issue (again, in Florida) is not how much money they will pay you, but how much money you will pay to dump the obligation. And even when you "sell" it, you continue to get bills from the company because the "buyer" fails to register the sale and transfer ownership.
I can't say whether the presentation you are talking about matches the experiences I have learned of, but you are wise to ask before committing to anything - even attendance at a sales presentation.
