Specialty Shops:

I'm interested only in upscale Hotel/Resort, Golf, Spa shops. Do Coyle now...any other suggestions? Thanks he said with a smile as he made direct eye contact.

Freeman Group does them but research it on Volition.com and other forums whether folks are getting paid in a timely manner. I gather that the clients are financially strapped and being slow to pay Freeman and Freeman is passing along the favor. If the clients are being slow to pay they are likely being slow to reverse charges to credit cards as well. Even in 2007 some of them were being slow to reverse charges

I am still owed over a hundred dollars from an April 2008 shop by Freeman. RUN do not walk the other way, unless you are in the charity business. I am not the only one owed money, and their own attempts at remediation have not even been accurate-for example, I did not get one of the letters people posted on V.But my debt is oldeer than those who did.

While I did get paid/reimbursed a couple hundred bucks for a job done early August by mid October. Of course I stayed on them pushing because stated terms were 30 days and when I requested payment after 30 days I was told 8 weeks so 8 weeks I was back again insisting on payment. And yes, they claim they are now paying sequentially 'no exceptions' I can't say I'm a believer.

Run like hell from Freeman.

Well I guess I found out who not to go with, so is Coyle the only reputable firm doing these upscale shops?

Dataquest is another good one.

I haven't used them yet but Regal Hospitality is another.
Good Luck!
