[...] know how much you Torontonians hate “Harold the Jewelry Buyer” commercials but I couldn’t resist. We are actually going on a cruise. SharkBoy let it out of the bag [...]

I actually liked the stripper one. The flip phone and reference to the flip phone was very The Soup.

Yeah, some channels here in the states are nothing but pawnshop commercials…altho we don’t have anything quite as bad as the Princess Di one.

The other big one is for a flooring company called Luna…I have no idea where they get their actresses from, but I’m pretty sure it’s either a strip club, relatives of the owner, or both. For example:

AjohnP : I can honestly say that I’ve never had a singe piece of ‘extra’ gold sitting around my house that I’ve needed to get rid of. Craziness.

Russel O will take fillings!

I haven’t seen the specific commercials that you’re referring to, but we have similar ones up in my neck of the woods that are constantly running – and they are just as frightening.

When I decided to sell some gold and silver I had, I did some research and found out how little pawn shops and jewelers pay. Then I also researched “gold parties” and hotel “buying events” and found out what a scam they are. Of course, there are a lot of mail in companies that are horrible… like the “as seen on tv” guys. However, after a lot of searching I found a company that not only pays much more than anyone else I could find, but they post the prices they pay right up front on a live chart on their website at SilverAndGoldExchange dot com. The Silver and Gold Exchange was the only company I felt comfortable dealing with and of course I wanted to get the most money possible. They have a perfect Better Business Bureau report with no complaints at all, so that helped me make my decision. I can recommend them 100%

Russell O. used to go to Bloor Valley club circa when you did.

I like the woman eyeing up her husband’s Rolex in Harold the Jewelry buyers add.

It’s a small price to pay to live in the cultural centre of the universe.

These commercials are the WORST> I’;ve been noticing more and more lately. The Oliver’s Jewlers with the backup dancers and the wigs that wiggle when they dance is my favorite.
