Dear God, loads of jade again. I am in hospital recovering from surgery and I am appalled by the poor excuse of a weekend they created. All an excuse to sell more jade and other Chinese stones

I have been saying that often. Their prices are absolutely mad, particularly given the low quality of many of their products.

Thank you, Pepperpot. That's very kind. The latest customer service agent I spoke to really surprised me. For her, when they say delivered in 2 to 3 days they count these days from dispatch date and not from purchase date. It's the first time I hear something like this.

I am an idiot. I bought something from Gemporia although every time I buy something from them I end up facing more hassle than their products are worth it. This time Gemporia says they have dispatched my parcel to DPD while DPD says they haven't receive my parcel yet. And this has been like this...

That's what my mother says and why she stopped watching shopping telly. She says that Gemporia is even worse than the others, including IW.

Well, today Dave Troth sold a strawberry quartz bracelet for 79 pounds when on Etsy and eBay natural strawberry quartz bracelets are available for less than 10 pounds. The 'collectors' must not have known about that because they attacked it like sharks on feeding times.

To be honest, it is the most beautiful grandidierite I have ever seen. Thus, it has been fun to watch, even if I don't have the kind of disposable income which would allow me to buy one.

Are you watching the grandidierite showcase? The jewellery is selling out despite being in the 4 figures. That's so out of my budget!

Yes, I watched it. I was thinking to myself that most of the 2023 jewellery odyssey collections are terribly overpriced, including Angeline's earcuffs and earvines. But we are in a minority thinking that, because as you said they were really popular. According to my app, most sold out.

I am watching the Paraiba showcase and a bit surprised that so many people bought it even though the starting price is 64 thousand pounds. Who are Gemporia's customers? Who has that kind of money nowadays?

Is it just me or for the last few days Gemporia has been airing the same showcases over and over again? Today Lynn is going to sell Idar Citrine which was on yesterday at 10am and Portofino Huaigu which Rachel was selling yesterday. I always check the schedule just in case there is something of...

For those of us that believed the promise of no more jade, we are in for a surprise. According to the schedule, Jade Troth will be selling jadeite for two hours tonight. By the way, did anyone see the Morganite showcase? Was it just me or the stones were more colourless than pink?

For me, it's not only bad that they talk for so long, but more importantly that they don't say anything of real interest.

When he finally shut up, he presented us with ridiculously overpriced morganite, so for me it was a waste of time. Jake's amethyst in silver was even worse. Later on they sold a diamond ring in gold for the same price. It makes no sense. Well, it seems to me that I will not be buying anything in...

Am I the only one who finds Ellis annoying? When she starts saying 'queues, queues, queues, queues, queues' and 'this is going to be gone' or when she starts singing, I just switch off. I find it terribly annoying

They rarely show gemstone jewellery nowadays. Whenever they showcase jewellery, it's usually gold chains and bracelets, with Nitesh shouting about it. There's not much for me there. My mother thinks Kim is the worst of them for terrible acting. She might be right. Her expressions of shock are...

Oh, I love white zircons. Was it a Kaduna one? Btw, happy new year to everyone.

It's my perverted sense of humour but I find him entertaining. He is so bad he is good. So I hope to see him soon

I have just cancelled my order for a ring because when I clicked 'view product' on my order history suddenly it appeared an avalanche of one star reviews complaining about how flimsy and thin the ring is. No, thank you ..... I hope my order from TJC is better. I have also bought and returned...

Have you seen Tony lately? I haven't seen him in ages! Did he quit TJC?
