This is exactly the reason why there are specific limitations on so called "Haustürgeschäfte" (sales made on the perch of your own home) in German and European law. For example you get a reasonable time period to rethink those sales without any charges.

And where I live now in southern California, thank goodness, it's actually against the law to "solicit door to door" (I think that's how the law is written). Before I lived "here", every weekend, guaranteed, at least 4-5 knocks on the door on Saturday & Sunday afternoon (combined). Trying to sell me something that I didn't need, didn't want, and often it felt like a scam.
