    There is no one out there right now that can deliver a pitch like this guy. He was realy freakin talented. Great voice.

    This montage of clips is fantastic! Not only do I remember the commercials, but as someone who does TV work, I can sympathize with the blunders. Not as easy as it looks! This rare footage is terrific to see and it is funny after having seen the finished product on TV for a long time! JimMastersTV

      I saw a women do a tv commercial at a local shopping mall when I was a kid in the 1970s and even though she seem to do the commercial perfectly the director made her do about 50 takes, I guess bc he wanted to make sure they got it right and maybe also they got paid by the hour so making it go on for 3 or 4 hours made sense, anyway the actress was really annoyed having to keep doing it over and over and over again.

    *I **_SO_** miss Crazy Eddie! Crazy Eddie in the 1970s (when Fair Trade Laws were still a thing) was a godsend. He was clearly dealing in gray-market goods, and nobody gave a shit, cause his prices really **_were_** nuts! The first VCR I bought (a Betamax) went throuh three Crazy Eddie stores: I got the first store to give me his lowest price (took like 4 salespeople too!), then took that price to another store, repeated the excersize, and then hit the third store. When the third store tarted "beating" my best price by nickels, I knew it was as good as I was going to get!*
    *I still have that Betamax too!*

      *I apologize for the bold: I'm blind in one eye, and have only marginal vision in the other: the bolding allows me to find my own posts. As for Eddie: he's a personal hero! If it weren't for Eddie, I never would have ended up in biotech - at one point I was reselling Eddie's stuff at a profit; the whole period was crazy!*

    In accounting classes on auditing, a lot of students use Crazy Eddie as the topic of choice when dealing with accounting fraud. That and Enron. I guarantee you, someone will want to do those two every single time as a part of a project, every professor expects it.

    From a quick read might be around 1985. You can still get them as they still refurbish and there are special vintage ones made. The rotary was fun as hell to use.

    That is not Crazy Eddie. That is Jerry Carroll who was a WPIX FM disk Jockey
    "In 1976, Larry Weiss, Crazy Eddie's advertising director, hired WPIX-FM disc jockey Jerry Carroll as the official face of Crazy Eddie. Today, Carroll is considered to be one of the greatest spokespeople in advertising history"

    I adored these TV ads. Living in New York I especially ;loved them during the summer and Christmas. It makes me sick for the NYC that used to be at least livable during the 1980s. This was NYC at its best.

    I know they opened up some stores in Jersey, I think around Edison & Princeton. I know I passed by one once over the last 10 years, I think when I was on Routes 1 & 9. But I don't see any in NY anymore, which had quite a few stores back when I was a kid.

    I actually remember seeing a couple of these on TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes [the Christmas ones come to mind]. Though I don't really remember it, my mom says I used to imitate this guy back when I was MUCH younger and we were living near the east coast.

    Former New York radio DJ Jerry Carroll was the best and appeared in more than 7,500 commercials as a Crazy Eddie pitchman. i don't know if Jerry ever hit those "White Lines" before doing these off-the-wall and super-memorable commercials, but his energy and delivery were incomparable and definitely, "INSANEEE!"

    Carroll was a disc jockey. After the collapse of Crazy Eddie's he dabbled in record stores-failed. In 2006 he was a disc jockey at a night club on the upper West side of NY.

    it's amazing to notice that NOT a single thing in this background works today. the TV's do not have digital reception. the phones are rotary. the touchtone phone is dead as cells have taken over. video tape recorder? long gone. 30 years from now, everything we use will be garbage

    You could sleep through commercials but not Jerry Carrol of Crazy Eddies that was INSAAAAAANE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't get no better than Jerry Carrol. OxiClean's Billy Mays is second best to Jerry Carrol.

    The phone in the scene is not rotary, it's shaped like one but it has Touchtone buttons. Also, rotary phones still work on standard (analog)telephone company lines.

      I wondered this too every since I found this clip, and I think I stumbled upon the innocent error:
      ruclips.net/video/gLVYIDn1XLo/видео.html
      I found the final version of the commercial by accident and Jerry does it word-for-word, which goes to show his high level of professionalism.
      Looks like he left out the section about them not being undersold!
      I remember from interviews he said Eddie Antar himself would be behind the scenes coaching him on how the commercial should go, and they'd do it all hours of the night. Must've been fun and tiring!
