Castlebridge Publishing: Rip off? Fraud?

I saw the Denver BBB report on Castlebridge and then personally spoke with Marcia Colliver of the US Postal Inspection office in Austin, Tx. I also read all the negative remarks listed on this board.

Frankly, I am still not convinced this is a scam. But I am going to test it because I know that money can be made in home-grown mass mailing despite technology and automation. So here is my report so far:

12-03-2001: Sent in $85 for materials
12-21-2001: Received all materials in the mail as promised (though a little slower than promised . . . holday mail??)

01-05-2002: I sent out first batch of 200 fliers according to Castlebridge instructions. Also sent a detailed (4 page) letter to Castlebridge asking for answers to specific questions).

If all goes according to Castlebridge's promises, I should recieve a check in the mail for some amount within the next 3 weeks or so (by first week of February).

We will see, and I will report back here no later than middle of February.
