3 hours of Jadeite in the afternoon, as you said, plus one in the morning at 9am and more to come at 8pm. And have you seen the prices? Oh my goodness! 300 pounds for beaded bracelets.

Gemporia had a good idea when they decided to send samples. I received mine with some earrings I bought. I absolutely hated the perfume and agree with Manwithnoname that it smelled like chemicals after a while. I also thought that it was too expensive at 30 quid for 50ml.

I wonder what he is buying since they haven't had new gemstone showcases in ages. Their weekend shows have been really poor of late. Beads, nuggets and jadeite. Saves me from spending money, I guess

I wonder why TJC leaves the majority of the gemstone jewellery presentations to the night time shifts. During the day, it's beauty and fashion and non-gemstone jewellery

I agree they have spent too much on jade. I tuned in early in the morning Jess Foley was selling jadeite. I switched off. Switched on again during Angeline's show and she was selling jadeite. I switched off again. Tuned in just moments ago and Hattie is selling jadeite. It's quite the obsession.

Why do you think that most of what Gemporia currently sells are beads and nuggets?

I agree and thanks to this obsession he is transforming Gemporia into Jadeporia. Gemporia rarely showcases new gems now and has become very poor and boring. However, the Jade always sells out despite the extortionate prices they demand for it. That's probably why they don't feel the need to...

I agree. It was an unwise decision. I am curious to see what they will do this week, since Lindsey is still off and, if I am not mistaken, she would be working the longer week this week. Particularly on days where other presenters are off for one reason or another they will struggle I think

Have you noticed that Gemporia is cutting back on split pays while their presenters are cutting back on hours? Yesterday Jess Foley ended up doing 8 hours, one of which was a gold under 100, where none of the items offered split pay. The lack of split pays smells of desperation to get as much...

Yes, I was hoping that Steve would intervene but as you said he simply doesn't seem interested anymore. Have you noticed that they rarely have new gemstone showcases anymore? Today it's going to be one of those rare occasions with the Tajik Spinels. I hope they are not in gold tone

In terms of repetition Lindsey is even worse. I watched for 30 minutes this morning and lost count of the many times she said "checkout as quickly as you can"

I am utterly shocked. Lynn is currently selling black obsidian and she has just asserted that it helps with arthritis. Is this even legal?

Just moments ago Lindsey was screaming "go, go, go". Is it just me or presenters have become increasingly more hysterical and increasingly less likely to say anything useful? They seldom give any real information about the jewellery and rely on stock phrases repeated ad nauseum

Thank you for posting this question. I was wondering the same thing as the prices on Gem Collector increased so massively that I stopped buying from them.

I am curious!

Well, Charlie Barron has declared today that, after October, he is unlikely to come again to Gemporia. What are your thoughts on this?

Totally agree. My mother foresaw a couple of months ago that Gemporia would soon close down and that before that they would try to clear their stock without new stock coming in. I think she might have been right

I hardly watch nowadays and I don't see it changing. I cannot imagine the old Gemporia returning, with variety and beauty

Yes, this weekend's theme is Treasures of the East'. What their schedule for the weekend shows is that such treasure is mostly jade. Dave was on at 10am and will be at 2pm.

Did you noticed that they are going to have a weekend dedicated to jade? Gemporia has become unwatchable
