I used to love their stuff.  Great products.  The only thing is, I could 
never find anyone who wanted to sell me any.  Now, they wanted to "let 
me in on the ground floor for very little money I can be a distributor 
too and have all those salesfolks selling for me and getting me rich and 
if I want to sell distributorships then I can make even more" and help 
me out THAT way, but no one wanted to sell me any products.  Not enough 
money in it to replace what they'd invested...

See above.
