    There are viewers who are soft in the head. On Bid years ago one of the presenters did the usual shtick about how he wanted some item or other - a day or two later he was thanking some viewer who had tried to buy it for him.

    That's right ! Inflating the prices on the suppliers website to make the shopping telly prices look good is an old shopping telly trick. They used to do it on Bid Tv. It's a scam to be honest , particularly with the various shoddy watch brands they sell these days. 'The manufacturers retail...

    Peter has just been on with the CBD oil - 'it's the first time they've let me do this product' he announces. It's not surprising ,talk about ill-prepared! Peter was in full awe struck child mode throughout , relying almost 100% on prompts through his earpiece. At the start of the presentation he...

    Ray the duvet bore just gave a statistic he said was sourced from The Bedding Association Of Great Britain. A google search reveals that there is no such association - not even anything similar.

    No doubt he then said 'but this really is.'

    Meltdown Mike tells the same story about multiple products, often stating 'this has been a game changer for me !' If it's a woman's product he'll say it's been a game changer for his missus. The presenters must be happy in their work -they are there year after year, and their fervour never...

    I think that the 'stock' they are always on about is a myth. I doubt that they hold 'stock' of anything-they probably have a fluid arrangement with their suppliers to meet the demand they are able to generate with on air presentations. People in the review section are always complaining that...

    Meltdown Mike takes CBD , so he claims. Along with Reg Varney and his mum , Chris Birkett and his mum , and his mother in law apparently. You can imagine the sales meeting before the launch; 'How are we gonna get it across that it's not .... you know ..... a sort of drug thing ?' 'Tell 'em...

    I'mnotbeingfunnybut........ he always says it to preface something crushingly banal , such as 'I'mnotbeingfunnybut it's Tuesday tomorrow.'

    The Swan and Edgar Sovereign automatic watch stopped whilst Peter was presenting it to camera.

    If Mike says he has bought a watch from IW for his son it's about as factual as Paul Becque saying 'his mum' takes CBD -in other words , sales patter. Don't believe a single word !

    That was funny ! Indeed she started to make the the ecstasy noises 'Oooooohh !!! Ahhhhhhh !! Wow !!!!!!!!! before the mattress had even absorbed her weight. When she did settle on it, the mattress instantly collapsed like a souffle .

    The phone man ( Grant ? ) was furious last night - Peter had cued him to speak , and as soon as he started Peter started bellowing ; 'YER'LL NEED TO CHECK OUT YER BASKETS !!!!!!!!!!!!' I thought Grant was going to walk off -even Peter realised he had overdone it and started backtracking.

    This is a five star review of the Swan and Edgar Aviator watch from the IW website - I have cut and pasted it in it's entirety ; 'The salesman really sold this to me. He was so knowledgeable as he spoke of how WWII aviators chose automatic watches over quartz ones as they flew their jets...

    It's normal for a marketing consultant to invent a back story for the product which is what they've done here. The GX pillow has got plenty of rotten reviews on websites other than Ideal World. The presenters can recycle the same pitch they use for mattresses , duvets and other pillows. Sleep...
