Hi Emza, I look forward to hearing about that bracelet. I fell in love with it too. I may yet succumb, if they have any left in stock (which I doubt, but haven't checked)... trying to resist because all those little £60, £40, £30 puchases soon add up! I already have the matching ring, which has...

I thought canary aquamarine - yellow beryl - was called heliodor! But what do I know?!? Missed a lovely kunzite and pink spinel ring - wasn't logged in tho, and everything's selling so fast, had no chance to grab it. Curses!

Thanks for that info, Graham. They kept that one quiet, tho I see they've finally posted it on their website today. That's it for me and Rocks, then - I almost never watch TV at those times anyway! Rats, I was in the market for a £2,000,000 blue diamond as well!

Maybe that's what they meant by 'joke price'! :grin:

Is is simply coincidence that R&C don't appear to be broadcasting on Freeview at the moment? They've moved to Channel 40 but still only showing a blank screen with 'live auctions from 13.00' on it. Are they really still having 'technical problems', or a maybe a big behind-the-scenes rethink in...

:giggle::giggle::giggle::giggle::giggle:

My sympathies, Nikki! They've had some beauties over the past few days. The only reason I've resisted is that I've already spent my 'tanzanite budget' on a loose stone and I took it to be set yesterday... I hope once I've got the ring on my hand it will stop me wanting to buy something else...

Well said, Meeshoo. I joined the forum purely because I enjoy watching all the jewellery channels and it's fun to chat about them and exchange views and experiences. I have no issue with R&C because I haven't bought anything from them - that's only because many of their products appear...

Hello and welcome!

All I got was a screen saying 'Netplay'. Although I can only bear to watch them in small doses, I'd still miss them if they were gone!

Rocks & Co confuse me. I have seen some stones to die for - huge, colourful morganites, patrokie kunzites, big tanzanites and the like. I really like their star rubies, and their 'colours of life' rainbow collection. However, I haven't yet taken the plunge because many if not most of their...

I love indicolite - the stones looked GORGEOUS - but ouch, the prices. Way out of my reach! Should indicolite really be that expensive???

Even photo-shopping couldn't help it!

Alas, my evidence is pure hearsay. I don't think it would stand up in court! Maybe if someone out there happened to tape it, tho ...?? (I can't be the only person who's sad enough sometimes to tape particularly striking items on R&C or TJC to watch later, either to drool enviously or to see if...

Couldn't agree more, Klosblue! R&C sneer at 'other channels' for selling silver, but hello - some of us are very grateful to be able to purchase affordable and perfectly gorgeous items without bankrupting ourselves. Couple of weeks ago I bought a ruby ring with two little tanzanite hearts, one...

I saw that sphene! It went to £1999 if my memory isn't too wobbly. Again Tony was all sweating and pasty as if in imminent need of CPR - he claimed he was going to buy it himself, because he could deliver it straight to someone's door who'd pay him £15,000 for it!!! Er... so why didn't he...

:giggle: But where is Lee? Haven't seen him for a couple of weeks. Is he on honeymoon, or has he left in sheer despair?

Did anyone see the GIGANTIC ruby necklace they showed a couple of nights ago? It was vast... at least 250 carats of ruby, each stone around 13 carats in size (if I remember right) and surrounded by diamonds... it was just insanely over the top. They had a similar one in kunzite, too. I didn't...

Wow. Just wow. In any case I've never been tempted by the Tanzanian ruby because it looks like orange sapphire to me...

Wish I'd seen it! Agree about the relaxed presenting style - the one thing I wish they'd do is to show us the studio staff occasionally, like they do on R&C. That would add to the fun.
