Recall that IW starts their sale about three working days before Christmas when delivery before Christmas is no longer possible (this Tuesday? Wednesday?), though C&C might be able to get last minute items delivered now but not in time for most people to do anything useful with them before next Saturday, certainly not to send handmade items through the post to someone else.

As for IW exclusive brands, I think the only ones they have are Downland (?), Warm Home Heating (ceramic radiators) (?) and possibly eLife (electric bikes) though I've seen the eLife brand with another retailer but only for one bike. If they're on eBay it's most likely to be Ideal World selling them under another name.

Swift Step Through electric Bike in Mint Green

The Swift is a true Electrically assisted Hybrid bike. It will cope with a daily commute as easy as it will with long weekend runs into the country. Because of the larger 700c wheels it will feel smooth and responsive and it is able to convert every peddle into much more performance.

I see they are still using the years old review from Megan in Spain.
On an earlier show they reckoned the bikes battery needed charging as it didn't work, more like it was busted .

I'm getting ready to go to sleep at 9 o'clock due to monotone Ray with his silk wares..

Oh according to Peter, The Heritor Sanford, we've got another, new, never seen before, first in the world to see it watch.


Amazon have been selling it since January 2019.

However, scroll to the bottom of the page and you'll find this message:

MANUFACTURER REFURBISHED - Item has some minor marks/scratches on the frame. Signs of previous use.
6 Month Parts Warranty
Luggage strap and toolkit are not included

Guessing these are all Ideal World customer returns or demo bikes.

Well spotted, didn't notice that, although to be honest didn't read it thoroughly, if i was looking for one to buy would have read it more carefully and did a bit more research first, have had a look at few others this morning and they are refurbished too.

But of course if we follow Mike Mason's advice, especially during iphone show, "nobody buys new, you don't buy a new car" etc, so that refurbished elife is perfect in Mason's world and we should be buying it instead of paying more at IW.

Who the hell is buying the Samsung Galaxy S9 at £250 on this channel when after 2 minutes of searching they are going for £180 new unlocked with box & accessories on eBay.

 

[Jazzydrury]

The reason Is, Flexi Pay, Open Pay and PayPal Pay.

Open Pay being the biggest thing. Where you can normally spread over 10 months, which would be so risky at the moment the way things are

Oh no. Don’t say that- please! Demo bikes for sale? They might be ones that Peter has been riding. I do hope they’ve been steam cleaned.
One e-bike for sale, light stains only….

 

[Keep Going]

Arkay I cant keep my eyes open here is on with his Mulberry Silk duvet Mike says thst if someone else offered him another duvet he wouldnt take another duvet as he believes this is the best duvet ever! okkkkay Mike going by your previous predictions of everything monstering out but never selling out I'll take my chances and go with my own gut instinct.

I'm away for a lie down Cheers Duvet Ray

Ps IW taking the viewer for a mug telling us to check out Arkay UK's (sleepy Duvet Rays own wee website) own website to see how much more the prices are on the official website..........yes yes yes we arent all dull we all know how these comparisons work to make the easily conned think they are getting an amazing deal at IW........

Is there anything tackier than IW presenter's costumes? Whatever the 'event' they turn up in the most appallingly cheap 'fun' outfits. A case in point being the other day when Shona was on dressed as a Christmas present.

Are they a metaphor for the channel?

Peter Volauvent , the ancient mariner of IW, is on with the used iPhone 7 - he is claiming that it's so good that people are spurning the later models and going back to the 7.
This is the same lie he told when he was flogging the used iPhone 5 a couple of years ago- everyone he knew was spurning the 7 and going back to the 5.
Peter is full of *&^^%$££ !!!!!

So. What is going to air most over the next 10 days?
Dormeo, vibrapower or linear?

 

[Hammy60]

Just had a quick glance at their sale and some right bargains to be had.

Sale | Ideal World

Sale

www.idealworld.tv

4 x 1 litre bottles of top gear waterless wax - £39.99 (usually sold on shows around the £20)

Cookshop BBQ grill - £110.96 (usually sold on shows in summer between £59-£79 depending on the offer)

Geesh these shysters really do take their customers are mugs.

PS

Oh but wait, my mistake, missed the sale part of the offer, they've capped P & P. Phew thought they were trying to rip us off there.

That's a hard one to call, think it could end up as a dead heat.

They'll be there on Christmas/Boxing day, desperately trying to offload stuff to a largely imaginary audience (I guess many - but not everyone - will have better things to do than tune into IW). I also guess the focus will be on fitness stuff as they'll be pushing the New Years resolution/working off excesses lines.

As we sit down to Christmas lunch they'll be a voice passing through the ether saying 'check out your baskets'.
