I remember theyre used to be a VECTOR marketing near my house on Kg & 68th in surrey.
it has now shut down. I've had a few friends who have worked for them selling Steak Knives and cutlery, they both quit within a few weeks.

heres some info form WIKI.

[edit] Controversy and criticism
Some former employees have accused Vector Marketing of unsavory business practices.[10]

Vector Marketing requires sales representatives to make a security deposit of $150 in order to procure a set of knives for demonstrations, prompting some to complain about this policy (the deposit is refundable if a representative chooses to quit or the contract is terminated).[10][11][12] Students who work for Vector Marketing are considered independent contractors and are not reimbursed by the company for money they spend on gasoline used while working or for the time they spend at training sessions.[5][10]

I don't see what the problem is. I mean, if I simply applied and just quit after the first hour and kept the knives, they'd be at a loss. So in that sense the 150 deposit makes perfect sense.
