I'm trying to help an 81 year old woman who no longer can afford her vacation week in Mexico. She has paid vacationonly.com to sell it for her. The current price is similar to the ads for this resort that are posted on TUG. Does anyone have experience with this company?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

What would you like to know?

I've dealt with them a few times but never from a selling side of the deal.

Their site tends to have a lot of listings that are dead and they just leave them up in the hope you will call them, or at least that's how it seems at times. I've called on 6 different listings and only 1 of them was actually still active.

They've been around for quite some time.

They also charge the buyer a $1000.00 commission fee on top of the price the purchase price, I think most of the people just add that into their offer.

I just wanted to know that they are a legit company. Ouch for the $1000 commission in addition to what she has already paid! If they can get it sold for her, and she will get some money, that is all I'm trying to do for her.

They charge the BUYER the comission but like was said most buyers just deduct that off of what they offer.

They are legit but for what they charge I would never have used them. You would be better off advertising the week on a few other sites and you might actually sell the week - the usual suspects like Redweek, Bidshares, Myresortnetwork.com, TUG, eBay
