Do you know anyone stupid enough to get $3 worth of unordered junk in the mail and then capitulate to a demand to pay $700 for it?

By the way, for any who may not know this, they say that if you receive unordered merchandise in the mail, you are entitled to consider it a gift, and you are not obligated to either pay for it or return it. “They” in this case is the Federal Trade Commission.
