I reviewed the letter to her and explained that these guys were trying to get her home for a fraction of what it was worth and she should throw the letter in the garbage.
Did I "out" their business model. Should I feel terrible about what I did?

You really didn't understand what I was writing did you!?! You just want to argue so I'm not going to go down that rabbit-hole with you.
Obviously, being a terrible person and taking advantage of an elderly person would be a bad thing. 
This isn't a hard concept people!
I get where Jay is coming from as well as there have been items that I would have loved to have a chance at but didn't see the item until after the fact. I didn't enjoy that but I probably should have looked harder I suppose.
