If you're willing to shell out $3000 to get the timeshare out of your name, here are a couple of suggestions besides paying these shady post card companies (PCC).
1) Post your TS for sale on low-priced, reputable listing sites (such as Redweek or Tug) priced for free. Pay your maintenance fees (MF) in advance, and offer to pay the closing costs with a reputable closing company. Also, to sweeten the pot, throw in about $500 cash for the buyer upon completion. That will work out to much less than the $3000 fee to these PCCs that won't even do what you're paying them to do.
2) Realize that $3000 is about 3-4 years' MFs. Pay those fees over the 3-4-year period (as opposed to $3000 upfront) and make use of your TS. That will bide you 3 years, or so, to sell. You might be able to give it away in those 3 years. In the meantime, try renting it out for a bargain basement price of, say, %50-60 of your MFs. That will have your TS working for you while you try to find a "buyer" for your TS.
These make a lot more sense than paying a PCC $3000 right now to list your TS on E-bay for $1.
