P.S. I agree about the flimsy gold weights. The other day I saw a 5ct (or thereabouts) Shimoyo Rubellite set into a shank of less that 3 grams of gold. It cheapens the whole thing and makes it look like something you'd find in a Christmas cracker.

I love your pendant Miss M. I'm a big fan of the Patroke too. What a great design and I notice that they've used VS diamonds - very nice. The one thing that Rocks have got right imo is that they use a decent amount of diamond accents in their jewellery and it's usually of a nice quality...

I haven't seen her, but I haven't been watching lately - GemsTV mega clearance has kept me otherwise occupied. ;-) I find it easier on the stress levels these days to watch with the mute button on (unless it's John and Lee).

to the bling mad club briolette! Hope you'll have a lot of fun here. I noticed you posted on the Rocks & Co forum. Have you bought anything from them lately?

I noticed that Miss M. lol It's too bad though that the prices in the shop are still so much higher than what they sell for on air. I'd buy from the shop if there was a small mark up, but it's often double the price!

I totally agree flossie. :lolwave: Last night I found one in each colour that I would have loved. Maybe it's time we started Gemaholics Anonymous!

I love your RS Tia - it's so pretty! :flower: Like you say, it will go with so many things and I'm sure you'll get a lot of wear out of it. That looks like a very large pearl. If the surface quality is good and displays a nice luster, then it's a tremendous price now that we know the TPs...

You did well to last a whole year Jantac. Personally, I blame it on the weather!

After this week my credit card is leaving on vacation for a well deserved rest! I got a pink one naturally!

Thanks for posting Argey. xx There's a sapphire pendant I've got my eye on. Hope it comes up tonight.

I love the cut Jan. It's nice too to see the posts fixed to the centre instead of the top of the gemstone. Fingers crossed for you. Also, fingers crossed for us all that the sun comes out again soon and we finally get a summer.

Count me in if the cowboys are coming! Bangers and beans all round? :giggle:

:sweat: :whew2: Well, that's a relief! See, you didn't get the duff one after all. :giggle: I would have paid your return postage though if you hadn't liked it Fluff! :-) It's such a pretty feminine necklace but with a good weight to it. I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of wearing it...

Luckily my P.O. is just down the road! I've sent back tons of stuff - today I returned 5 items and kept 2. Mrs Fussy Britches, that's me! :lolwave: I've often wondered if I'd get banned for returning so much, but then I suppose Gems is more interested in how much you are spending rather the...

I would imagine it's a bit of both Greenie. I've bought some great stuff off the web over the years and only last week found a fantastic rainbow sapphire pendant. I remember a year or so ago I called up a PS to get a price on a colour change garnet, which was a one-of-a-kind. I didn't buy it...

Welcome Greenie. Beware! Once you start reading this forum and looking at everyone's purchases, you'll probably end up buying things that maybe you wouldn't have thought of before. Have you decided whether to send back your earrings or not yet? I just sent back a pair of green tourmaline...

I'm afraid buying gems when you can't see what you're getting is simply a case of potluck. It would be so easy if they were predictable just like manufactured stones, wouldn't it? lol Unless it's one of a kind, I agree with Miss Magpie, that you just don't know what it's going to be like...

As you know, I love the floral design of this necklace. I agree though, if the diamonds aren't performing, then it's very expensive for what it is. Oh well, onward and upward. You'll just have to think of something else now to buy with your refund.

Your ring is lovely gemcherub - good choice. You can see how much it sparkles in your photos. I saw it on air and was really tempted, but I'm really after some 'demented' earrings, so had to sit very firmly on my hands. Enjoy!

Hi Jacqualina Thanks for showing us your Apatite ring - it's beautiful and I love the simplicity of the design. I know what you mean about wearing it. This is the first Apatite I've bought because I was always worried about damaging it. I think it'll be for occasional wear only. I'm not...
