Is that good or bad Meeshoo ?

Thanks to Steve for his prompt response to my email - given you are not UK based atm and your invitation for me to phone you if I have further concerns - it is appreciated. In Rocchic land it would be great to see that chunk of tanzanite sold for £67,000 and the proceeds donated to an on going...

The Devil wears Primark was a focusing documentary. The awful thing is that even tho these children are breadwinners for their families - the exploitation is beyond comprehension - it would not take much to provide better wages and care - pure greed on the part of the owners. Unfortunately our...

Ive seen the clip today posted by Happygolucky it was awful and had I seen this a few months ago would never have bought tanzanite - there is real opportunity for proper work and proper conditions out there given the demand for taqnzanite - however as ever it is vulnerable people and children...

Hi BB thanks for your reply on JM forum - I just replied on this one but realised it was the wrong one so will go and repeat myself on JM lol - will tell Jacky yu replied as she isnt on here so much.

Could someone clarify to me the new monthly jewellery making competition where a winning design is picked by Sarah Bennett to go into production to be sold on Rocks and Gems. Is the prize £200 or £200 in JM credit. If this design is successful and makes lots of money is the 'winning designer'...

I love the promo of Barry jumping in the pool - it always makes me laugh. Yes I think Carol would be fun - I do like the presenter promos and reckon they could think up some fun ones that didnt offend our sensibilities

Or, have tantrums in the street.........

Could almost get my ears pierced for those - lush lol

I suppose its whatever you are most interested in or the reasons you buy for. Have definately been spoilt by rocks prices as what they sell of silver gemstone jewellery is much cheaper than on the high street and most of the time much more unusual. My spending has risen per item as prices have...

Having just responded to an online automatic ' how was your *********** shopping experience with another jewellery company with poor to excellent in gradients on all important areas which I get everytime I order from them - and I always reply honestly - surely that would give rocks and gems a...

That was bizarre and cringemaking ! I really like the educational ones and the new ones of Matt and Steve especially showing the mines and the country wher the gems come from is really interesting. With more unusual stones especially. Defo encourages me to think about increasing collection when...

I am really surprised that the badly made, insulting and patronising promo's of a) some silly female nailing her letter box up because she paid more for her jewellery or less or some other silly reason and b) same silly female having a toddler tantrum in the street and hitting her partner...

I have just ventured into Gems as an avid Rocks TV buyer - my sister defected from Gems two years ago like many rocks TV customers and I dont have sky so enjoyed the web bidding etc. Presenting wise I like the professional calm informative style of Barry, Rod's humour and Rae and Sarah Coutts...

Hi Tabs How do I get hold of said brill cleaner to keep my sparklies sparkly and shift a bit of tarnish off some older stuff

So what do we think of the changes Right, first time I have tried replying and quoting so is it going to work lol - lack of techy skills. Hi Charmaigne - it is really lovely lovely pink tourmaline, really heavy 14k gold weight at over 4 grams and a great look ,a tad snug but even with a re...

So.... possibly when John gets round to reading our posts there might be a consideration of: A preview of what is coming up in the hour and more than a subliminal flash - which often happens An exchange button or similar for the more desirable setting/item Themed hours with a preview of what is...

My issue with the removal button being removed is that if you bid on a design of a certain gem and then see the same gem in a more desirable (to you) setting in the next auction or the next hour the choice to remove the unwanted item for the more desirable item is being removed. Auction buying...

As a relative novice in the gold market I have bought a few pieces ex gems on rocks for very good prices and made sure nothing was under 3 or 4 gram gold weight with higher end stones. I dont like thin gold weight with a higher end stone or heavier gold weight with a lower end stone or to me the...

Hi Argey Very tru its not exactly professional - it does the collection no favours whatsoever
