Mike while down at his market stall flogging his watches, Once again rips the viewers to shreads with his comment of "Your daft if you dont buy one" great warm friendly and inviting way of trying to sell an item by telling potential buyers they are daft. Unreal does he ever listen to himself? 🤷‍♂️
Did he say ...

MELTDAAAAAAAAAN BUSY!!! ABAAAAAAT TO SELL OUT!!!

... even though the product was on its seventh day of being sold?
 
EXCLUSIVE ... EXCLUSIVE ... EXCLUSIVE ...

I have a friend of a friend of a cousin of a friend who works at No. 10 Downing Street. With Boris now out of a job, apparently they overheard IW phoning him immediately after his resignation speech, offering him a presenters job on the channel.

He's certainly qualified, he can talk bullsh1t as good as anyone and has a very weak moral compass. So he'll fit in just fine :)
 
Mason & Bordello the night, nae doubt will be telling us how it took months and months for Earnshaw's designers to come up with their latest Tourbillon creation, and we'd be daft if we didn't buy it cause all the smart people are buying and it's a £3,000 watch for the bargain price of £999.99 plus p&p, remember folks Tourbillons usually cost in the tens and tens of thousands. And nae doubt Mason will be wanting one but unfortunately will be all sold out before he can get one.



Feel sorry for 'Mike of the Masons' if he's not able to buy, but fear not he can go and get it from the source at half the price, £486.44. ;)

I've never forgotten him saying, years ago, "you have to buy this, you've got no choice". He spoke arrogantly and smugly (I know you'll find that hard to believe). Can't remember my reaction, but I may have shouted at the television and used a phrase which ended in "off" (not very ladylike I know...).

If somebody is trying to sell me something in this manner I walk away. Like charity muggers - do they honestly think I'm going to sign up to a direct debit when someone has blocked my path trying to talk to me? Grumpy middle aged woman rant over...

He's a tw*t.

Another line he likes spouting is

How many left my lovely? (speaking to people off-screen, if indeed he's speaking to anyone.)

Puts on a shocked face, conveniently doesn't tell us how many are left.

Right listen, if everyone that has these in their baskets checks out, they're gonna sell out. So get a wriggle on. I say this not to rush you ... blah blah blah.

3 days later, the product is still for sale and strangely hasn't sold out ;)

You know how you get these people that can hack almost anything? It would be good if someone could hack the IW tv software and put messages on screen. So e.g. when this was being presented, a message pops up middle of the screen saying 'This watch can be bought for 1/2 the price off Alibaba ;)'

Or when selling the 6 person hot tub, a message saying '6 people in THAT? Aye RIGHT!!'

I'd love to see the looks on the presenter and 'expert' faces :)

Cheeky Chappie, the off-screen fake conversation always reminds me of Morecambe and Wise. A guest would say a perfectly innocent word that may have sounded rude. Eric would look off-stage and appear to ask a stage manager "can he say *****". Silly but always made me laugh growing up in the 1970s.

Mike Mason on the other hand is as funny as a dose of piles (not speaking from personal experience!).

So true

I also find it strange, especially with the watches, how much he seems to hold bragging rights/attention you'll get in the pub as a major selling point/factor when folks are picking a watch to buy. He's continually stating how if you walk into a room/pub/on hols etc how everybody will be asking you about your watch, you'll be center of attention.
I've a big collection, too big actually, found it hard to fight the addiction :eek: :ROFLMAO:, and most are way above, in price and quality, than the vast majority of Chinese stuff that Mason hails as attention magnets on IW, but strangely i've never had anybody in a pub/room or on hols come up to me and ask about the watch i'm wearing and. Of course given his arrogance and look at me i'm fantastic attitude i wouldn't be surprised if he is the one that's instigating the attention by forcing folks to look at his watch and boring them with every little detail/info (fake IW info) about it, and how much he saved by buying it on IW. ;)

Very true, but i would also say the same for everyone of the IW on screen presenters and guests, none of them are in the least bit funny, even though they think they are, but everyone of them are incredibly, incredibly annoying.

What's funny though is he really believes he's a bit of comedian, what's even funnier is the others in the studio are laughing with him. I'm always wondering are they laughing so as not to hurt his feelings or are they just as stupid as he is.

Yeah, they definitely target the 'Loads-A-Money' and 'King Gary' type viewer when selling certain watches. Bleating on about the weight, how you'll 'definitely know you're wearing a watch!' and all that guff.

However Hammy, unlike you, I HAVE had folk in the pub ask me about my watch. Actually this happened to me just last week. I walked into my local wearing one of my Swan & Edgar watches. The manager said 'Is that one of those Swan & Edgar watches?' I proudly said 'Yes it is mate.'

I've been banned :(

At least Paul B isn't irritating ...

... oh no, wait a sec, he is.

WHOOP WHOOP!!!

**** ****!!!
 
Reynolds is always good for a laugh with his exaggerations and ********.

Still trying to flog the Union Flag watch, now linking it with celebrating the Queen's jubilee. :ROFLMAO:

Reynolds talking about the pick of the day (Ladies watch) - It weight is 97 grams (not 100% sure its 97 or 87 he said), why is that important, that's the same weight as watches of four, five, six thousand pounds.


Really, is that his selling point to connect an low cost/affordable watch with luxury watches, pretty sure there are thousands of watches out there that cost peanuts that will weigh the same amount as a luxury watch , Ali Express is full of them, but that in no way means or even suggests they are the same quality. :rolleyes:
 
You'll think I'm lying, I'm not. The following is TRUE!

I hopped on last night (I'm guilty of being a channel hopper so this is also true, I'm up and down the listings like a yo-yo!) and Mike M was flogging sunglasses with one of the models.

First of all, Mike M came out with a bit of bull. The sunglasses were around £28 I think and he said 'When ya see sunglasses at this price, ya grab a few pairs don't ya!!!'

Nope. Could it be you are trying to encourage multi-buying?!? Thus getting viewers into more debt. Nice.

Then the model starts giving it a sales pitch, including this line ...

'And they're a really nice weight on your face ...'

HA HA HAaaa!!! These muppets are OBSESSED with the weight of things :) :) :)
 
Flogging a drone yesterday. They showed some VT of the drone flying outside however they still don't show actual footage from the drone. Granted the quality we see would be governed by our own tv's quality, however I find it very interesting they never show on-board footage from these drones, or if they do I've evidently missed it.

After all the quality must be great. The toys guy often bleats on about the studio cameras costing £10k and the £200 drone having its own HD camera ...

;)
 
I'm just back from a lunch in my local pub (this is a different pub to the one that banned me for wearing a Swan & Edgar watch.)

I ordered steak pie, chips, onion rings and peas.

I picked up a piece of the steak and said out loud 'this has a really nice weight to it.'
I then picked up a piece of the pastry and said the same.
(at this point I got a few funny looks from other diners)
I then picked up a chip in one hand, onion ring in the other and said 'both have got a really nice weight.'
(at this point I could see the manager heading towards me)

I just managed to get a solitary pea in the air before I got escorted off the premises and told I was banned. However I got the last laugh as I was shouting 'IT'S GOT A GREAT WEIGHT TO IT THIS PEA HAS!!!' as they were dragging me out.

Goodness knows how I'll get on when I visit B&Q this afternoon ...

Cheeky Chappie, you may need a lie down and increase your medication! By the way, did you get thrown out of B&Q as well?
