TW Online Marketing

To all that are still wondering if this company is worth your while, do not bother with this scam. They use every trick in the book to make them sound like a large company that sells nationwide and internationally when there's only one major agent, Cheryl Moats, who has been in this con game her whole life. I have looked up their "corporate office" and with the VERY little information given online, one of 2 addresses I could find pulls up on google maps as a house, the other address is just a PO Box. They do all this crappy work from the luxury of their home! When you do call and try to get any information, you're read a script, which they tell you how popular your specific timeshare is or if you go by points how they can sell it for 1,000's of dollars and that it all sounds like an easy sell that they certainly can do. They'll spice it up and throw other nearby resorts names or popular tourist spots nearby and hype up how they just recently sold a timeshare or 2 from there because its a hot spot. They say lines like "we have a large market for buyers since we also work with clients overseas" and "with [insert upcoming holiday] coming up we have several buyers who are looking into [insert your timeshare/location of timeshare] to vacation at" and my favorite "we just had a convention/ meeting with several buyers who are interested in your timeshare, so and so was very interested so we will be in contact with them and will let you know." If you hassle them about how slowly the process is going or how you haven't heard anything from them, they like to put it on you that it is because it's up to YOU to call in to get updates because they are a "Large company with 100's of clients and our agents will not bother the seller with every offer that is given unless it is a SET DEAL". It's up to YOU to know when they have a 'supposed' client at that time who wants to buy it just a couple thousand dollars than you listed. They'll tell you "we had someone who was interested but they were looking to pay X and your are dead set with Y. Maybe if you consider dropping to X you'll get more action". Even if you go along with their script and try to drop the price to 'advertise' it to the supposed buyers they'll tell you " the buyers went with another timeshare" or " sorry, they are no longer interested". Call this company and see for yourself, you'll hear these similar lines, but whatever you do, DO NOT PAY THEM ANYTHING TO 'ADVERTISE'. You will literally be doing just so. The contract you sign and fax back to them clearly states that they only have to advertise. THERE'S NO GUARANTEED SALE! You need to understand this. All they legally have to do is just post it on their website. "We DID advertise it... it's on our site!" You can do the SAME THING and post it on Craigslist. Save your "Low cost of just $199" and pay a lawyer instead to draw up sales docs if you find a buyer. If you think you are saving yourself any hassle and time by letting this company "help" you sell it... then as everyone else here has said, continue flushing your money down the toilet. Also, just because they have high a BBB rating does not show that they are a trustworthy company. Many people do not file a complain and if they do they do not follow up, HOWEVER, if the company writes some crap reason "showing" they did everything they could do, BBB accepts that as "the company resolved the complaint" or "the company offered a solution but the client did not accept". Do your research, read the many complaints against this company.
