Yeah, angry, that makes me laugh. Like that's going to sell anything. That's one of the reason why I never will sit thru a timeshare presentation. I will never agree to one. The incentives are just not worth it to me, but to each his own, I know plenty of people who loves the incentives and have fun leading on the salesman and get them riled up on purpose.

LOL. Been there. Walking away, we figured their Anger tactic just made it that much easier to say, "no." Who would want to buy from a company that treats their customers with Anger?? How was that appealing?? Oh, well. We are better off w/out that particular timeshare, certainly.
I have been to a number of presentations, for various companies where the salespeople got angry when I didn't buy. I remember one guy who said, "You mean you are going to sit here and take advantage of the free gifts we are giving you, and you are going to waste our time for that last several hours, and you aren't even going to buy anything?" To which I said, "Yep. I didn't want to come here. I didn't come looking for you, you came looking for me. I didn't have any interest in your timeshare and I still don't, but your people corralled us and pushed us so hard to come. I told them I wasn't interested but they told me to come anyway, and pushed your 'free gifts.' Well, that is not my fault. That is YOUR sales tactics. So, yeah, I'm not buying. And I don't
care what you think."
And then, the last three I went to were all at Worldmark. At the first one, the lady belittled us, in so many words, that we were cheap (I already owned 10,000 Worldmark points direct, at around $35,000) and it made me really angry. At Worldmark they sometimes don't tell you that you are going to timeshare sales meeting. Instead, they invite you down for a complimentary breakfast, or they tell you that you need to schedule your 'educational meeting' to learn how to use your timeshare better. And I have 'accidentally' ended up in two more Worldmark timeshare sales presentations since then!! One of them was when I went to check in to a new resort that I had never been to before, and the hotel staff directed me right in to sit down with a sales person, when I thought they were sending me to someone to check me in. And this was while my family was sitting around, waiting. And the second time, two salesmen showed up at our room, uninvited, to 'give us new information to help us use our timeshare better.' Of course there was no new information. Just two salesmen encroaching on MY time, taking advantage of my politeness without being honest about what they were doing. So that is Worldmark for you. Three strikes! I have learned to be VERY careful whenever I stay at Worldmark, and I avoid ALL of their 'social activities' and Complimentary Breakfasts (or lunches) or special Educational meetings, or meetings with my counselor 'to see if there is anything else they can do to help us.' What a bunch of losers. I have no respect for the company, as a company, after that, and I tell them so on every occasion I can. (On the other hand, I do try to be especially nice, and kind, to the real workers, and telephone staff, and people like that.)
