    Jeff Hayden tonight, after Hattie's show!

    Also sounds like they realised those late shows bought in sales, didn't someone on TJC say their sales had improved now less channels were doing live shows? Or something to that effect. I'm glad though. I like Jeff, but I hope if the good ship Gemporia is going to sink he jumps before she goes...

    Gemporia's Biggest Problem

    This would also be my one thing.

    Steal Deal!

    Oh no, they do not operate on "tiny" margins. I have regularly bought items that have had price drops of 30 to 40 per cent from usual showing prices (not even launch, which is usually more). Never once did a presenter day "this is below cost" or "we are not making a profit on this". Remember...

    Steal Deal!

    Wow... just... wow.... seven times the price... I thought it was bad when they marked something up by 50 per cent as it was on the breakfast show.

    Sorry Steve, but there is a ridiculous amount of Jade on this weekend..

    This much I do know. I don't buy diamonds from Gemporia. To be honest, I don't really like diamonds anyway. But I though JimaPak was saying the information on the cards was false rather than saying the information on the cards is correct even when the stones are poor.

    Interesting and news to me. Can you explain? Proven how and is it just the Jade?

    TV Guide

    LOL. I saw the Opatra thing this morning and ignored it. Currently watching Kieran saying he has lowered a price for a pink diamond ring so much that he is going to be out of a job. All terribly, terribly familiar! But, they same to have some more unusual designs and pieces. Gemporia seem to...

    Please listen Gemporia !

    I think we really should just call it "Jadeporia" and have done with it. Lots of people have messaged them and said "too much jade". Ellis herself even commented that people who think there is too much jade should remember "if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all". So there have...

    TV Guide

    Hi all, Having recently jumped from the the sinking ship "Gemporia" I am now looking to TJC for jewellery, and so far I am happy. Unfortunately, like Gems it is laden with non-jew ellery items. How can I find out what is on when? Their on-site TV guide gives no hint, except to say "Black Friday...

    Ripping-off Refunds

    Also, ask Mum if she paid with a credit card. She might have extra protections if she paid with a credit card.

    Ripping-off Refunds

    Ok, so I would write to Gemporia. Keep a copy, send it recorded delivery and tell them you know the item was re-sold and give them the time and the date. I would tell them you are considering legal action and that you are quite prepared to go to court over this, plus talk to the media. (Local...

    Ripping-off Refunds

    Probably a daft question, but just to cover all the bases. Did she send the items with Royal Mail's insured post? If so, she might be able to claim from them if she had the right insurance. The one I use for multiple items is their next day signed for - it used to be called registered and I...

    Gemporia - struggling financially?

    Before the recent events at Gems I had not bought anything for TJC for years. I've since shopped twice with them. So far it seems okay, they do some nice designs in silver. Gems designs can be a bit samey and mundane and I haven't had time to get bored with TJC yet. I am not sure what getting...

    Gemporia - struggling financially?

    Please if anyone from Gems is reading this, Please ask Jess to cut back on her currently constant theatrically over-the-top gasping and wheezing in "shock". She does it so often it has little value - even for those daft enough to believe it is genuine - I now have to hit the mute button when she...

    What's happened to Gemporia

    Quite simply, bad management and a bit of greed thrown in. Have a read of the threads. It's a shame, but we are all still keeping our fingers crossed that Steve's return will bring better times (and more jewellery that is not Jade or Queen Conch).

    Steve & Sarah back at Gemporia

    I have to admit, and I am aware he has not been back long - but I am still waiting to see any real changes under the regime change. Green indicolite, not declaring treatments, unethical - if not outright illegal - pricing policy etc... all still ongoing. Oh and Jade, Jade, Jade.... Not...

    Gemporia - struggling financially?

    I saw the beginning of the show and saw the stones were green. It surprised me a bit as I'd only seen indicolite as deep blue before. So, thanks for the clarification everyone. Same with the Paraiba ring they recently had on for megabucks. I was expecting a vivid blue but the gem was a very pale...
