There are 'free to use computers' at all libraries in case someone doesn't have a computer at home. The world of knowledge and education is at one's fingertips via the internet. ... If they would research postcard companies (or the name of the company on the postcard) via the internet they would realize that they have to pay them to take that timeshare off your hands. b]
People still fall for the Nigerian e-mail scam, go figure. At $3500 a pop you only need a small percentage of responses on your postcards to make a nice living off the misery and greed of others. If 95% of 4 million T/S owners are too smart to be taken or aren't interested in selling, that leaves (do the math - it's what the military would call a "target-rich environment").
