Random musings and general banter.

Natalia on, TV off. I just can't watch her.

Natalia: “I spoke to my veterinarian about my little dog the other day…
Dr. Edwards: “What is he?”
Natalia: “He is a little Shih Tzu with chronic diarrhoea.”
Dr. Edwards: “The vet or the dog?”
Natalia: “Fu…right off, Doctor…”
Just going to borrow her lips to carry the weekly shop,,

Why is Swan & Edgar selling the Green Tourbillon for £2k on their website, yet £999 in their ebay store. They only have one for sale, and have sold one.

Because they're shysters, like quite a few other brands of similar ilk it's one big con, like the resultco, Christophe duchamp & solar time brands etc.
Their web sites aren't really meant for selling, they mainly retail through other retailers (selly telly/online retailers) or marketplaces like ebay & Amazon, although if they get the odd mug to buy from their web site all the better, their web sites mainly exist for the purpose of advertising the ridiculously high RRPs of the watches, so when consumers see the watches reduced at other outlets they think they are getting quality watches at bargain price, as i said, it's one big con.

I seem to recall the good physician saying today that the department store that closed in 1982 are ‘renowned watch makers’. Closed down department stores don’t make watches. When I last went in there, I bought some underpants and some lightbulbs…

 

[Keep Going]

They will stop at nothing for a sale...."do you have kids who have exam worries? buy them the Opatra lux hair brush"

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Buy one for each head in the street, in the town, in the country…

Oh christ. She is even worse than Natalia. Buy these flower pens, they are phenomenal, phenomenal are these flower pens, just phenomenal, fan dabby dozy.

 

[galesgal57]

Would Sally like these pens for Mother's Day, I think not.

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

She always speaks in a manner that is self-absorbed and self-important, with little or no regard for the viewers who she is speaking to.

 

[Duke of Cheese]

You would imagine her favourite eye contact is from the mirror.

 

[Hammy60]

Sally with William hunt watches, only this price for this hour, remember only this price while we are live.

Yeah unless you go to the TJC web site, same watches, same price.

 

[Hammy60]

You would imagine her favourite eye contact is from the mirror.

It must be placed differently, but on the old IW her eyes were forever looking slightly off to the right and left while still talking to the camera, just so she could look at herself on the monitors, making sure she centre stage, product isn't obscuring her from the camera and if she needs to adjust her hair.
Also she was forever going over to the models because she was out of shot, no way she was being ignored by the cameras.

 

[Duke of Cheese]

How many years has she been doing this with never a change in her sales routine? Making Your Mind Up you come to the conclusion she lives in The Land of Make Believe. My Camera Never Lies…Give Heather a Piece of The Action. We NEED a New Beginning..

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

Watching a 46/47 year old woman act childlike over a bag is pathetic.

I think Rob is away on Holiday.

Hope he gets back soon, the channel needs him more than some of these other presenters.

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

The same old stories about air fryers. Same old things cooked in the demo. Pipe down Sally. It is £49.99 on ebay.

Just for a change, cook some of the recipes from the booklet.

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

She just can't help herself. She has turned an airfryer show into a discussion about herself. When I purchased one. When I use it. I should be paid commission for the amount I sold off air.

Yep, this is just another, almost daily, example of them contradicting their previous sales pitches, even mentioning how short a time you get with turbo mode, something they never mention when they are flogging cordless.

Another thing they are negative about plug ins is you've to keep unplugging as the leads are too short, yet the Henry has a huge lead, plug in once and reach the whole house.

I have a few friends in the building and shop fitting trades- a couple from when I opened my shop back in the mid 90s.
Every one of them, no exception, uses a Henry, and they need to do some serious cleaning work. When eventually a Henry breaks, and it seems able to take a lot to break one, they simply buy another- no other make gets a look in.
If there was one cleaner I’d feel safe in recommending to anyone, it would be a Henry.

Why is Swan & Edgar selling the Green Tourbillon for £2k on their website, yet £999 in their ebay store. They only have one for sale, and have sold one.

I’m absolutely sure it’s to establish the higher price as a reference point, so a casual browser thinks it’s a real bargain. Swan and Edgar get these drop shipped - the finished product is worth around £300-£500, no more.
I’ve worked on them- they actually have one of the loudest mechanisms I’ve ever heard. The customer who owned it said he can’t sleep in the same room!
