This is the style they should be aiming for. As you say, a nice, genuine chemistry, and without the Simon and Jacksesque type hysterical selling methods. Most people want something that isn’t tired gags about back passages and up your regions..They don’t want to see a 60 years of age plus man’s stomach on camera close ups, hear tired end of the pier show double entendres, and countless examples of contradictory information. Plus, most shoppers want genuine customer feedback being read out, I would think. You need to base your decision to buy on being given an informed choice. Not with creative texting, using forum names as senders. Something fresh like Rob, Simona and Heather’s approach. Not acts that haven’t changed since the days of Bid-Up twenty years ago, but have changed channels countless times.

another tired old routine is pretending there's a mistake with the price

You'll actually find it for £54.99 — which makes IW's supposedly 'great value' price of £109 a bit much…


Edit: the affiliate code seems to be added by the forum software, it's not mine.

But wait, this can't be right?

I hopped on the other day and a presenter definitely said along the lines of 'here at IW where we consistently beat market prices ...'

Let's face it, we rarely find the products cheaper elsewhere, so I'm inclined to believe them ;)
 
The silly girl, I saw earlier. She was trying to sell that awful looking outside camera that fits in a light socket. You know…the indoor type ones all outside spaces are full of. “You Can’t Put a Price on Safety,”she said. Great. Does that mean it’s free?? No. The price of safety is £19.99.

I’m convinced all the presenters are given a strategy for when the kit they are demonstrating doesn’t work in the studio. Non-ticking watches are prototypes. Non-heating ovens are dummy models.. A product never doesn’t work because it is useless or it’s broken or the presenter has done zero prep on it. If it is anything technology related that needs an Internet signal, then it is usually the Wi-Fi signal has gone down, or it has disconnected itself somehow or….or…or… She had one of the cameras on the desk, filming the studio with an iPad literally inches away from it, which it was set up and connected to. The simple sounding task for her was to demonstrate how you can look at the camera when you are thousands of miles away, providing you a secure view of your home‘s exterior.

Unfortunately, on this occasion, somebody less than a foot away from it, was unable to see what was happening in the studio on their iPad, because the technology had frozen. Of course, she can’t say that, and had to thrash around via the Gallery for some plausible excuse that somehow the camera had disconnected itself, and then quickly move on from ever showing a demonstration of what it can or cannot do. “You Can’t Put a Price on Safety,” she said. Her grandad has 200 of them - one in each Ideal World goods filled cupboard. We provide a meal for a child in India - the distraction techniques after the failed demo continued.
