Timeshare Freedom conducts the closing. They are located:
Timeshare Freedom, Inc.

Cleveland, GA 30528


I just did a look up of the area code 484...it's located in PA. although the fax number is in Indiana.

Double check EVERYTHING.....

Re: >> The old adage "if its too good to be true, it probably is..." keeps rolling around my head. <<
===============================================

This is a high volume PostCard Company. Not dishonest, but extremely busy at peddling and closing timeshare sales. They will get it done, but will do so in their own sweet time. That said, if you've purchased a fixed week 40 for actual usage, that time frame has now obviously already past for this year, so you have lots of time to complete the closing.

One suggestion I must make for the record here is that you must scrutinize the documents very carefully once you receive them. These high volume PostCard Companies have lots and lots of ads and many transactions and in-house closings. They routinely "cut and paste" material from one eBay ad over to another. Not infrequently, some of the "transferred" information becomes grossly inaccurate once placed in its' new setting. Critically important details like annual (vs. EOY) usage, fixed (vs. floating week) and whether or not current year maintenance fees have already been paid must be confirmed and then double and triple checked once you receive the contract documents. Make CERTAIN that what you are buying is EXACTLY what you THOUGHT you were buying. Inattention to detail now can become a long term problem later.

Good luck. Pay close attention, be patient but persisitent --- then enjoy!

Backed out based on false claim in ad

I never bought the week from seller noted in post 1 of this thread.
Seller claimed in ad something
to the effect that this red week was "best possible trader", which was a blatent lie. Thanks to advise from Lawren2, who happens to own there,
an October 1 bedroom on Cape Cod is considered by RCI to be more white or blue
by RCI, and I guess commonly referred as "pink". And I already own one of those dogs on Myrtle Beach!!! After several nasty
emails with threats of legal action and bannishment of me from eBay,
seller finally allowed me to cancel. After this experince, DW told me to forget about buying anymore timeshares and stop spending so much time on TS4MS!!!
Is there a 12 step program to help with TS4MS addiction????

" Hi....my name is Paul and I am a TS4MS addict...."

Have a good weekend, all!!!!

Well I just got notification from the resort that the transfer has been completed and I will be receiving my ownership documents in 4-6 weeks but I am now listed as the owner in their computer system. This was one of the quickest and most efficient transaction I have ever made on a timeshare purchase. The only item needing correction was that Ebay ad said 2008 maintenance fees were due in January when in fact I knew they were due October 31st. Svactionman contacted me after I told them I would be subject to 25% late fee if maintenance was not paid on time. We agreed as did resort that Svactionman would pay the resort the 2008 maintenance fee and I would reimburse them which I did after resort Emailed me that the payment was made.

I would definitely feel very comfortable buying from them again. Just make sure you do your due diligence like any other purchase since these companies buy and sell so many weeks on Ebay that there are bound to be errors.

I have been trying to reach Svacation man for months. I left messages with no call back. I purchased a property (Fairfield Destination Vacation Club in Orlando, FL) in 2007. The ebay ad said there were no back maintenance fees owed and I would be responsible for the 2007 fees and those going forward. After 90 days, I called to see what the status was since two other Fairfield timeshares we purchased around the same time had just been completed. I could not reach Patel and Fairfield said they had not receive the paperwork. For the next six months, I called. Finally Fairfield (Wyndham) finally told me they had the paperwork but the account was in collections for 2005 & 2006 fees owed. I told them I would pay the back fees just to get the deal completed (I was still trying to reach Patel). The Wyndham collections person told me I had to talk with the owner, which was still Resorts Access Network (aka Svacationman). When I explained I could not reach them, Wyndham said they could not discuss it with me further despite the fact that they had the paperwork and I was willing to pay the arrears (although the ad clearly stated the title was free and clear). Today (after a year of trying to resolve this), the Wyndham rep told me there is nothing they can do and advised me to retain an attorney. Svacationman (Dharmesh S. Patel), in my mind, is a con-artist and I will never knowingly do business with him again.

Svacationman missing

I have also tried to find him. I purchased 518,000 points at the Grand Desert from him in June 2008. This was an October 1-September 30 contract starting in October 2009. I was to be responsible for the fees effective October 2009. I checked with Wyndham and everything was up to date at the time of purchase. The contract didn't transfer until January of 2009. At that time I was informed that the fees hadn't been paid since August of 2008 and were back due. They wouldn't transfer the contract until I paid them. I contacted the Transfer Company (Timeshare Freedom) and was told I had to try and collect from Mr. Patel. All attempts to contact him were fruitless. I even checked current ebay sales and he isn't listed as a seller anymore. Thankfully I only lost a few hundred dollars.

I had a similar situation with him last fall. I did get an email address and telephone number form the closing company he used. His email is/was svacationman@yahoo.com. He did respond to the email the same day I sent it. I never got an answer using the telephone number.

There are some posts about him O/Y.
