If I was applying for your job, I would be in trouble. With the exception of my first job (teaching) every place I ever worked has gone out of business, even the two businesses I started and later sold.
If a business or a charity, for that matter, sends an unsolicited item, you not only do not have to pay for it, you need not return it. It is yours. A legitimate business may ask you once to pay for it or return it, but it is not your responsibility. In my case, if they provide the mailing material and postage, I might. But they are asking you to do work that you are not obligated to do.
