Vermont Debt Collection Services: Tourism & Manufacturing

"We've worked together for six years—you know we're good for it, and Vermont's a small community"—your Stowe ski resort contact's response when you asked about the $52K resort equipment invoice 109 days overdue. Then came the real answer: "Waiting for winter ski season bookings to materialize. You know how it works in Vermont—everyone waits for the snow and tourist revenue." Except you don't know if that's legitimate ski resort seasonal cash flow or a convenient excuse.

The invoice references an LLC in Stowe (Vermont's premier ski resort area), but they redirect you to Burlington business operations. Burlington says Rutland manufacturing facility handles vendor payments for resort equipment. Rutland redirects back to Stowe ski operations. Location confusion across Vermont—and your invoice sits unpaid while they continue ski resort operations with your equipment running daily lift systems.

You have the signed resort equipment agreement, installation confirmations at Stowe facility, and operations logs showing continuous lift operations. They've gone silent for 109 days, and you're not sure if this is legitimate Vermont ski resort seasonal timing, Burlington vs Stowe vs Rutland organizational confusion, or whether escalation damages all future opportunities in America's second-smallest state where everyone knows everyone.
