After the $1600 bid in Clock, Drew quickly mentioned "It's lower than a thousand."  Do you think Drew should have done this?

I dunno

I don't think so.

[Teddy]

It was obvious that the arcade game had the wrong price, but Victor missed it.

After the $1600 bid in Clock, Drew quickly mentioned "It's lower than a thousand."  Do you think Drew should have done this?

I don't think so.

It goes without saying that both prizes in Clock Game will always be less than $1,000. I know that they experimented with prizes worth $1,000 and more before eventually giving those out as a bonus, but before that, when was the last time they were used on the daytime show?

Kudos to Jana for that last-second Money Game win!

[Off_trak]

After the $1600 bid in Clock, Drew quickly mentioned "It's lower than a thousand."  Do you think Drew should have done this?

Meh, it wasn't that serious. It may be more of a helping hand than Standards and Practices may like, but she was rattling off numbers pretty quickly, and Drew was starting to fall behind in his response. It managed to get things back under control, and she lost anyway, so it really didn't matter.

[blozier2006]

Then he needs to not do that. Period.

Before the time they were using $1,000+ prizes in the game during season 37 there was a time in the 1980's that they were being used in the game. It was played for a car at least once!

Anyway, I don't think it was that big a deal that Drew told her it was less than $1,000. It's not like he told her something like "it's between $600 and $700."

Five Price Tags was promising since the contestant got two choices, but it was pretty tough choosing since $22,300 was the only price that definitely looked wrong. The vacuum sealer was the only small prize that was trickier to guess.

It was obvious that the arcade game had the wrong price, but Victor missed it.

Yup, $927 was definitely wrong. Surprising loss there.

[TinoStar11]

Good Show today.
Show went by so quick , we had an aired double overbid on a IUFB , only the 2nd aired one in the last 5 seasons.
Today's Now or Then offered the most expensive non-car prize package ever offered and won in this game.

[Casey]

After the $1600 bid in Clock, Drew quickly mentioned "It's lower than a thousand."  Do you think Drew should have done this?

Probably not.  In the end, it didn't really matter since she still didn't win it, but unless he starts telling people the prices are always less than $1000, he shouldn't say anything.

I dunno

Why bother commenting on a subject if this is all you have to offer?

[EvilChameleon]

Just one day in to my humble request for 4/6 shows the rest of the week, we fall one game short.

Oh well, always tomorrow!!

[Wayoshi]

Upon reviewing, Drew actually said "you're talking thousands?". No issue

[kingpin623]

Anyone else wondering why the arcade game in One Wrong Price had those yellow drapes with the TPIR logo around the bottom?  They don’t use Chromakey shots in that pricing game, so I’m guessing they were concealing the manufacturer/brand name of the arcade game.

After the $1600 bid in Clock, Drew quickly mentioned "It's lower than a thousand."  Do you think Drew should have done this?

Drew did not say this.

He said, "You're talking thousands, right?" because at a certain point she started saying "19. 18. 16. 15. etc." and it was confusing Drew. He should've stopped the clock, but he did not tip the contestant off to the price or range of the price. That would be in direct violation of S&P since they didn't tell her that before she started playing the game.

This show should've been 5/6. I'm not going to fault the Tags contestant for not knowing the price of a Lancer when the prices are bunched up like that, but clearly Clock was begging to be won had she not grossly overpriced a pair of bikes and while the Pop-a-Shot looked cheap in OWP, it was gigantic. Plus '4K" should be the tip-off that the TV could get that high in price. Oh well.

Nah - it's simply custom skinning provided by the manufacturer, "Pop-a-Shot," who was specifically mentioned in George's copy.

(It was also the IUFB I won on the 12/11 episode.)
