What they're doing with the Ballast appears to be deception and lies. There's hundreds available in total as a 'limited edition' but they're only selling a handful (if that) for each show. If - and it's a big *if* - they're technically not lying about stock levels then it's simply because...

Basically if it has 'Thomas Earnshaw' on the box it's still available (allegedly), with Simon Peters competing with Jonathan for the most lies and disinformation tonight. Please don't play a drinking game for each time they say "We thought this had sold out". Also Pete earlier kept saying "the...

The old shopping channel Bid TV also had a physical outlet store which they used to promote quite often. An Ideal World outlet store I'm sure would consist of nothing but a huge pile of air fryers, ceramic radiators and treadmills :D

...and a football team wanted exclusivity on this watch as well...everybody wants this watch...and the strap is 10x more expensive than silicone... Well how come it looks exactly like a cheap Chinese £40 watch coming soon to your local Cash Converters and why do all the colours look atrociously...

Martin's on the Kenneth (Made in China) Cole watch show with Shaun Ryan and I'm now utterly convinced that (a) Martin takes illegal drugs just before he goes on air since he literally bounces off the ceiling with overconfidence plus (b) Martin's scripts might as well have been written by ChatGPT...

Well that was downright weird. Just before the 10pm hour Simon Peters pops up to say solemnly: "I've had a really good day" just before they basically carry on as if nothing has happened. Literally. Both Kevski and Pete appear and Pete even said "We did it at 8 o'clock; there are two shows of...

Does anyone know what's happened to tonight's 8pm scheduled Vostok watch show with Peter Simon? Switched over at 8.10pm just in time to catch the very start of a repeat of an earlier boltless shelf show also presented by Peter Simon so either they've sold all of their watches (unlikely) or...

Back in 2020 IW were selling Coda Spark laptops and you can still buy them from Coda. They don't look as if they've been upgraded since 2020 either (a pity, since a small powerful laptop is a good thing), though also worth remembering that Mike Mason said back then that he absolutely hates using...

Dave's probably buried under a huge pile of Vostok boxes and they've had to bring in the fire brigade to fish him out. Seriously, most of the 'collectors' are probably burnt out by now or at least being more choosy with their purchases. Anyway, Kevski said tonight that this deal's for YOU. Not...

Based on a watch show I saw recently, I could have sworn that the average selling price of watches they feature on screen has increased significantly compared to not that long ago; case in point being the number of Swan & Edgar tourbillons being shown off nowadays (before it was usually one at...

Their lack of brand research was particularly telling/painful with Mann Egerton since that brand was used for car dealerships in certain parts of the UK not that long ago (at least up to sometime in the '00s if I'm not mistaken). So for a lot of potential buyers including myself (not a potential...

This evening they're trying to flog the Swan & Edgar tourbillon (open heart, limited edition) watches with increasing desperation. Not been watching that closely but in the first hour Simon Peters informed us that (of the open heart watches) four for some reason "hadn't gone through the system"...

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Well for all of his potions he still looks like a forty-something wearing studio make-up. Unless of course his real age is 95 in which case they really do make you look younger :)

Been a long time since I've posted here simply because Ideal World nowadays is so often dull and repetitive: airfryers, Mike Ashley tat, more airfryers, bedding, collagen of duty (sorry, Protocol), more Mike Ashley tat, even more airfryers, but on top of that it's usually incredibly irritating...

"Interest-free credit Flexi-pay"

Saw some of that show including when he was briefly shown (by accident it now seems). Thought he was a cousin/nephew of one of the presenters, brought in at short notice as sickness cover and deliberately not shown because he was inexperienced. However the truth if anything is even worse.

To be honest I think it would normally be used with a thermostat meaning that the heater would switch off at a certain temperature and cool down, releasing stored heat and remaining off until the ambient temperature drops again, hence it wouldn't normally run for 4 hours continuously unless the...

Not watching Ideal World much nowadays, but is it true that the sales pitches seem to be more intense than they used to be as if they're now under increased pressure to perform well? It's distinctly weird and arguably in very poor taste to be flogging awful watches whilst dressed in a black suit...

Those 'Swan and Gumages' (good collective name for the rubbish) are aimed at viewers who don't know about watches, aren't that intelligent and up for an impulse buy if they get sucked in by the sales pitch. And IW/TJC must sell a lot/have a decent profit margin to justify their continuing...

Ideal World tonight still parading their selection of oversized watches primarily sold to drug dealers and wannabe divers with poor eyesight. And I've noticed they've brought back Vostok Europe who are now reduced to selling watches excitedly named 'Benediktas Vanagas', 'Engine' plus a Japanese...
