Due to this the film ranks in the top 250 selling DVDs at CD Universe and is also very often sold on eBay.

The film's opening scene, a semi-accurate portrayal of a Saturday morning meeting led by Reggie (Benzali) is especially popular and runs in the vein of other famous sales meetings such as Alec Baldwin's scene in Glengarry Glen Ross and Ben Affleck's scene in Boiler Room. During the scene Reggie both preaches to his sales staff and is shown selling a vehicle to a "sucker" customer.
