Has anyone used mike @ timeshareliquidationservice?

Does business only with personal checks and just wondering if anyone used his service.
 
Never done business with them but I sure like their website www.timeshareliquidationservice.com

It sure it nice to see website which makes it crystal clear who you are dealing with.
 
if they are business, they should accept credit card or paypal.
They only accept personal checks.
 
Their is a Mike listed on the .com and they do take credit cards. Could the .net have been a failed web attempt before their real .com site? .net is recommended for community/service provider type sites, not for individual commercial sites.

Had dispute issues with Paypal, took them 3 months to refund money to
me on a transaction. Now I boycott them.
 
the www.timeshareliquidationservice.net doesn't work and I have never given you the phone number. How would you know if they are the same? or same phone number?

There are ways to find out. :D

I don't know why they have both .com and .net. But if you search TUG you will find a classified ad of theirs with the .net email address, and the phone number there is the same as that on the .com web site that Bill put up above.

Timeshare Liauidation Service is a major Worldmark reseller located in Redmond, Washington. I have never purchased from them, so I don't know their business practices. If you search for them on the Worldmark forums, some discussions will probably come up. :shrug:

If they don't accept Paypal, how did you do business with them on Paypal?
 
I am sending off the payment today. After talking on the phone it seems like it's legit business. Sometimes I feel better talking on the phone than emailing.
I will let you know how it works out after the transaction.
 
I have purchased from them twice, and everything went perfect. Both Dan Murphy and his wife are ex Worldmark employees, so they know how everything works and who to talk to.

IMHO, Buying or selling a TS should be done with a personal check.

Since whenever you buy or sell a TS, you should have the money held in a third party escrow account. Therefore, any check will have more than enough time to clear before the moneys need to be distributed.

I don't understand why any reasonable person wouldn't want a personal check when the money was going to be held for 4-12 weeks. Plus it's a lot easier to see if a check is a fraud if it a personal check vs a cashier check now a days.
 
this is for renting Worldmark credits. I don't think we are going through 3rd party.
I thought business should take credit card or paypal but I guess they were having some problem with Paypal.

TLS is a well-known reseller of Worlmark timeshares.

I have dealt with TLS on the purchase of a Worldmark resale, and they were very professional in the way they handled the whole transaction. I loved the way they handled the paperwork. It was explicit and detailed, and left no doubt in my mind that they knew what they were doing.

I have also dealt personally with Mike, buying one-time use credits from his own account.

Would I recommend them? Most certainly!

Remember - cc attach a 3% surcharge. If you seriously want the timeshare, send them a cashier's cheque. They're a business, not a charity.

:D

I use a credit card. If there is fraud, or the seller refuses to perform, I can always go to my credit card company to dispute the debt. Once a check is cashed, I am out of luck.

The only problem with a CC is that generally you only have 60 days to dispute a CC problem and TS closings can often run into 3-4 months.
 
Many Worldmark owners have purchased accounts from Dan Murphy, and rented credits. Let us know when you receive your credits, you should have no problem with the transaction.

Yes, I have bought two memberships and three one-time-use credits from Mike Murphy. Great guy and very fair. Transactions were faster than most! Paypal for one time use and checks for memberships escrow. All transactions went through well and I would most definitely recommend him!
 
I saw a truly decent one years prior where they really extended the back a few. On the off chance that it's done well, I kinda like it.
