If Redweek is notified of a scammer then they will ban them. They can't police EVERY poster here unless they're notified just as no internet site can.
Quote:I sold our daughter's car in 2006 when for graduation we gave her a new car. Sold it in one week for $16500 to a family outside of Las Vegas. I sold one timeshare in 2004 off CL in couple weeks and have rented twice when we stopped owning timeshares. We sold full bedroom set 2008 for $400 and it only took one day and never had a scam problem.
Cars and bedroom suites are not timeshares and just because you weren't scammed doesn't mean it can't happen. Does craiglist intervene when scammers are reported?
I like Redweek BECAUSE I had more success selling my 9 timeshares here than any other place on the internet and I like their ease of surfing and placing ads, simple as that. I don't mind paying fees for success.
