What happened to Appliance Direct?

[Mickey527]

I was in FL last week and turning channels looking for my Appliance Direct buddy and he was no where to be found.
The lady that does the commercials with him and smacks the truck while saying "Same day delivery" is doing some commercial for a scratch and dent place now.
Say it isn't so.......No more Wacky-new-new!!!!!

I felt that same something missing back in January. I was wondering the same thing!

They're still around. We gotta see those ads every time we visit FL. Maybe the Scratch and Dent is an off-shoot?

The commercials are linked on the right side, btw! Even Wakkie Nu Nu.

I just changed the channel 10 seconds into one about 15 minutes ago. Unfortunately they're still around.

"White Porcelain"

Watching one of these commercials is a WDW tradition for us!

That's the first thing that came to my mind when reading this thread.

Whiiitttee Poercelain....he says it so many times that it starts to sound like a foreign language.

Never fear. The commercials (and the business) are still around.

You know, it's just not a Florida WDW vacation without watching at least 10 minutes of that stuff. I've been to FL consistantly over the past 9 years and always look forward to seeing at least a few minutes of those commercials. Funny thing is, do a search on disboards, and there are at least 10 threads on the topic. I think that makes him/her a pop culture designation... They've got my vote!

Don't know about the commercials, but I drive past the store once a week and it's open.

Scratch and Dent was a limited off shoot....my kitchen is finished because of it....

They're still around....

We love Appliances!!

I first saw the commercials a couple of years ago when I was on a trip to WDW. I came home and told my family about it. At first they thought I ws crazy but we found the website with the commercials. We still at them.

What about the lady on the "New Lexus of Orlando" commercials. She's been around for years too. Can't go to FL without seeing her on the telly LOL.

 

[Fitswimmer]

Don't forget "Toyota of Orlando on West Colonial Drive!!"

I made a t-shirt that has WDW Veteran on the front and on the back is a sentence that reads "I have been to WDW so many times I...and there is a list of things under it that only veterans would understand. About half way down is this one
...finally bought a washing machine from Appliance Direct.
