Brian H (misunderestimated)In addition to "Mr. Peterman" I would propose the following candidates for the voice used to deliver the description for our fake MastroNet item:
Michael Douglas (His voice as Fitzgerald wrote about Daisy Buchanon "full of money" -- see: LEXUS ads; "Gordon Gecko")
"God" (the now deceased voice of the old NFL films who made "the frozen tundra of Lambeau field" sound positively biblical)
James Earl Jones (Darth Vader/"CNN")
Robin Leach (the old host of "Lives of the Rich and Famous")
Donald Trump (no explanation needed)
Conversely, I admit the voices I hear sometimes in reading especially overwrought over-the-top item descriptions (especially some on Ebay) are those of the sardonic John Stewart ("The Daily Show") or even the legendary "Mr. Hainey" (from "Green Acres")....
