Even if you don't want it, just buy it.
Peter Simon Stock Phrases - please feel free to add

Help Support ShoppingTelly:
No.
Seriously, if that is one of his stock phrases, talk about annoying. In case you don't know, I don't really watch him. Because when I have, Oyyy. (Don't mind me, just listening to Jewish singing, and on wine). But seriously, I watch enough Shopping Telly to know 'of' the presenters, and who I like: or should that be who I can tolerate more? And he is not one of them. And, to give them all benefit of the doubt, I do try to watch them, when I watch them, but not always successfully.Gift Horse

His most telling one (caught when he thought he was off-mic) during a break, was: “I’ll go to Hell, me.” Draw your own conclusions on the context.

As long as he takes the IW radiators, the watches and the painting- by-numbers pictures with him when he goes.

And his other classic hot mic from a month or two later (got the video somewhere) after flogging a bag: "How many? No. I knew that bag wouldn't sell... They're sick of seeing them, I reckon".
Having just spent 40 minutes shouting at viewers about the bag using classic lines from this thread such as "these are going to sell out; they're the number one item; you must go to the phones; Muriel, Jane, bob, Timmy, and George are in; this price is a mistake, alright; not only for lipsticks and purse, not only of tissues, and—"…
I remember that too

What was the other one he said off-mic in my head? “These fuc….aren’t multi-buying these woollen buckets at all, Charley, are they?” “I don’t need this, Charley….” “ I’m an award winning BBC presenter who is struggling to shift a £9.99 leatherette imitation scrotal sac in a Photo-Me Booth inside a warehouse in Neasden….” Or something like that…

Are we allowed to mention the outburst that got him a few days holiday in 2017/2018? It used to be on an article on Peterborough Today but it's not any more.

Ah, yes (this article).
"Mr Simon is seen getting angry with what appears to be a technical glitch, before stating: “Unless you’re Polish or you’re from Latvian countries and you just shouldn’t be here...”
He, naturally, apologised for his "stupid and ill-judged comments". IW suspended him for a bit, but he was back on air faster than Duchump watches.
Just waiting for him to apologise for all the other "stupid and ill-judged comments" he makes on a daily basis…

The footage was quite a watch. Certainly one of the best watches they have ever had on that channel. Good luck in ever finding it again.

He has an annoying habit of using 'not only' as a conjunction - there's never a 'but...' to finish off the 'not only' part. For example:
Not only does this bit of tat *cure cancer/make your richer/allow you to achieve nirvana* it's amazing this, just buy it, on four flexis, it's amazing...but

For the second time in two days I've spilled my tea laughing when reading something on here
....I can just hear him saying what you've said (and what's more scary, believing he still has some credibility..).If footage of this one exists, i'd love to see it.
