I don’t know if MenoMy is a partnership with Steve’s wife Sarah and Angeline. If Angeline is leaving Gemporia jewelry presenting, I think we will still see her selling MenoMy supplements on Gemporia the way Primal and CBD is sold. Steve needs to make money having a 75% stake according to the company info.

Just when I thought she was going yeahhh, now, I think you could be right she will be back. Like a recurring nightmare!! I find her obnoxious.

It certainly looks as if it is, looking at the website, which has had more attention paid to it than Gem Collector's has ever had! A lot of the products do seem to be re-branding of Primal (pills, Drink Me Gorgeous) and You BamBoo bedding.

The 'About Us' page, if you read it dispassionately, is an attempt to create a need, where one might not really exist, and say "we're the only ones who can supply that need you didn't know existed".

In answer to your question though, the old Galileia Morganite (the mine closed around 10 years ago), in my opinion, was one of the best Morganite's you could buy. It's more of a peachy-pink rather than a pure pink, but unlike a lot of other Morganite, which is almost colourless, it does tend to be strong in colour. It also tends to be fairly clean too.

I have a gorgeous Galileia Morganite that I bought from Gem Collector about 12 years ago. Completely natural. REALLY strong in colour. Gorgeous stone. I think I paid about £30 for it. Back when you could get really good quality stones at good prices from TGGC / Gem Collector.

These days, they'd charge that for an irradiated Zambezia 'Morganite' that is almost colourless and, highly likely, started out as a Goshenite before they nuked it to try to get the slightest bit of pink hue from it.

Stephanie has these untreated Galileia, amongst others (I cherry-picked a couple - the oval Lorique looked washed out). To be fair, they're corkers.

Angeline is now a health coach with a company called MenoMy which helps women going through the menopause. If I had to guess, I would say she is leaving to dedicate herself to it. If that's the case, I have no idea what Gemporia will do without Jess, Hattie and Angeline

Employ some honest, non shouty professionals would be a start🤣

Really nice stones. I'm not sure if its their camera lighting, but those look quite Andalusite-esque in colour, whereas mine is as strong in colour, but more of a peachy-pink hue.

Its a gorgeous stone and I'm glad I got it when I did because if they sold similar on Gem Collector these days, I'd be surprised if it sold for less than £150. And that's being conservative.

Slight side note, and something of very old news, but Vikki Carr. She was a presenter, then went off screen, into buying metals and then just disappeared. So, if she leaves camera-facing, does that mean she's literally on the way out? Angeline, not Vikki ;)

Did Vikki Carr become a scrap metal collector then? Can imagine the shouty presenters doing well with their hand carts patrolling the streets touting & shouting for any old iron🤣🤣

LOL. Hers was mainly silver and gold chains. And bugger and nuts. Now I'm thinking Steptoe and Son. :p
 
Any old iron was an old music hall song. It’s very long but you can find the lyrics online.
For some reason I think of this song when watching Gemporia. I’m sure the words could be changed to fit!

I know it is. Didn't know it was a long song though. And if I look it up, I'll probably have it going through my head all night :p
 
Well, there are suckers to be had, it seems, from across the spectrum.

- Image 1: Gemporia asking £99 for these. Is that a good buy? 🤷🏻‍♂️
- Image 2: Similar for £9,000+. You've surely got to be a numpty to pay that for these? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ahhh Vicky Carr, with her fake Geordie accent that she'd forget to put on at time.

She was, by a mile, the worst presenter on Gems TV at one point. Even worse than Jess Foley - and that REALLY takes some doing.

I'm afraid I think Vicky comes a close second to the never-to-be-forgotten - albeit very brief - reign of Peter Simon. 'It's amethyst - it's purple - it's the shining light of the night sky when the stars twinkle over Alabama' and similar rot.
