I've been targeted by a postcard mailer. I won't sell. Thoughts on engaging anyway?

So I live in one of the cheaper neighborhoods of Aurora, CO.  One guy has been mailing me "Will take in any condition!" postcards for a few months now. I have no intent to sell, and the prospective buyer (a RE broker) lives about 10 miles west of me.

Here's the thing: the photo he used for the front of my house is 4 years old. It's very obvious that my landscaping was under construction at the time of the picture. On one hand, I am annoyed he isn't bothering to update their records. I want to yell at him that if he's going to offer to buy my property, at least have post-pandemic photos. The waste and mental load of throwing away postcards is small - but it's real.

On the other hand, I wish there were ways to engage this guy in a way that would be to my advantage. I just have a complete failure of imagination of what this might look like. My frustration is clouding my judgement.

How would you deal with this situation?
