Last night, Sophie was presenting (a presenter I actually like as a rule). She looked straight down the camera and told the viewers that there's a price that the producers would like each item to sell for, and a absolute mininum price that they're allowed to go for. Under NO circumstances must the price go lower than this....if it does then there will be serious trouble...and "I'm not joking"...but guess what? I'm going to break the rules and go below that price because we're not busy,and also because I'm not one of the "watch experts".She went on to say " make the most of the lower price because if I was one of the watch experts then this would be going for a lot more than this! " Did any of that make sense?....it didn't to me either!
So let us get this straight Soph, If you break the rules you'll be in serious trouble..all I can guess is that means being put over the producer's knee rather than losing your job! In one breath you're telling us each item that goes to air has a starting price, a price they'd like it to sell for and a minimum price but if you're not an expert, you don't have that information so you have to throw in some random ball park figure, which for some reason you KNOW is a lot cheaper than it was supposed to be....yeah right!
I'd love to know who the watch experts are on these channels, as it seems to me that the watch manufacturers themselves wouldn't even qualify. FFS, how difficult is it to say this
"This next watch is supposed to look like the well known and respected Skagen brand, it even has a phony Scandinavian name"...."However this is where the similarity ends, it's a lot cheaper 'cause basically it's been made in a sweat shop in the far east from parts that were found by rummaging around the local landfill site with a holey bucket!"
