I complain a great deal about Gemporia but TJC has become a spectacle and not a good one. Have you caught them selling anything but tat recently? It's unwatchable

Oh, Ellis has just reminded me! I take Omega 3 too! Given my situation, I don't like people selling supplements as if they are the universal key to good health. As the disclaimer goes, individual results may vary. Oh, my mother tried the collagen shots and said they taste foul.... I need to try...

I am actually a great fan of supplements. I take Garlic, Turmeric, Broccoli Sprouts and I have seen good results from these. I have also tried Magnesium and Multivitamins, but the jury is still out. None of them are from Primal. However, I am hardly the person they would pick as a poster girl...

I mean, the supplement, health and wellbeing market is one full of potential for those looking to make a profit. So I am not surprised to see that Gemporia is investing so heavily on it. Nowadays a day rarely goes by without two hours of Primal Living. Today is a case in point. Do you enjoy...

The lotus tourmaline show of yesterday was a bit of mystery to me. They kept referring to it as a "premiere" but I have seen those same pieces on other shows. Boring and dull indeed.

Well, I am in hospital after major surgery and bored stiff. Not even I watched the endless hours of Destello. I preferred to hear my nurses gossip

Is it just me or the non-jewellery products are slowly taking over more and more air space? Today they occupy 6 out of 12 hours of air time! It's homewares, flourish, primal, Visage.... All in 12 hours!

Is it just me or the whole weekend is less about the trade show and its secrets and more about whatever they have in stock that they need or want to shift?

Oh, I have just received an email from Gemporia saying that they are going to suspend broadcasting on Monday between 6am and 6pm.....

Is it for the entire day? I received an email from Gemporia saying there are going to suspend only from 6am to 6pm. Is TJC suspending for more than that?

Yesterday and today Dave has graced our screens with biblical, Sandwana emeralds. Was anyone tempted? The prices were too rich for my blood and I dislike cabochons so I wasn't. And what do you think about Dave's claim that he is taking on high jewellers like Tiffany's with his David Harry...

For me, the epitome of distasteful happened today with Angeline swapping her mourning clothes for a cheerful pink Destello jumper one or two hours ahead of its launch, showing blatantly that they are only "very sad", "respectful" and mourning until they have hideous Destello jumpers to sell...

What annoys me the most is that they continue to take your split payments, even though they have had the item in their possession for weeks. I always return the items immediately after receiving them, but most of the time I end up having the next split payment taking out of my account. For me...

Yesterday they were constantly referencing the Queen's death and their feelings about it, particularly Angeline, who even brought her phone so that people could engage with her live via Facebook and Instagram while she was on air. Today they were selling the Platinum jubilee stock because...

Do you find tasteful the way Gemporia is engaging with the Queen's death? My mother thinks they are exploiting it to sell more, particularly their Jubilee stock. Yesterday I thought that some of the presenters were genuinely upset...

I have just received an email from Gemporia stating that they have received my return and endeavour to refund my money in 15 working days. My last refund took exactly 30 (normal) days, so I doubt that email very much. I think they still have a great deal of people buying from them, but a...

I live in an area with a lack of shops, so I rely a great deal on online shopping. Most places these days offer next day delivery. Do you think Gemporia is outdated with their 2-3 working days if you pay premium delivery and 4-6 if you don't?

Anyone excited with the return of Steve Bennett to our screens with Auction Mayhem (a return to old auction format)? And does anyone have a theory about why he is doing it?

I am glad I am not the only one not to get the supposed appeal of Aquaprase. I usually love patterned stones- I am a huge fan of many patterned jaspers- but Aquaprase is in my very subjective view quite ugly. Moreover, I am almost certain that what they show on TV are the best, most beautiful of...

Hello everyone. Am I the only one to find the Yianni Melas' weekend a bit repetitive? The have showcased the new green garnet on Friday, twice on Saturday and as I write this, this time in collaboration with other stones. I am finding it horribly dull. How about you?
