    Gemporia Hosts

    I was watching Jeff last night and was stunned when he said. “I know you all love to watch the duo of Toby and Lindsey presenting”. Had to go to A&E to get my mouth surgically closed. Seriously am I missing something. Is there a whole world of viewers out there who actually love Lindsey’s awful...

    Jade Troth is back

    I’m on the verge of giving up requesting. I don’t know when I had a request shown but it’s a long time.

    Jade Troth is back

    That’s just it. Sometimes it seems to me they are going out of their way NOT to sell items. Now they are even severely restricting Jeff in what he can sell which was a good way for people to request items they don’t show on tv.

    Jade Troth is back

    Same here.got some jade just to have some. Like it well enough. But I did really love pearls. Have all shapes and sizes. Even one or two Mikimoto . Now my reaction when I see them on Gems is “oh no not again” If I can reach that point I’m sure lots of other viewers can too. Seems to me...

    Jade Troth is back

    DT seems to be on practically all the time now. I’m finding it increasingly difficult to see how he could possibly be running another company with all the time he spends there. Surely that can’t succeed in the long term as it would need people to have an inordinate interest in buying jade and...

    Worrying sign?

    They had a show on the other day where c.s. Said they had an item I was interested in scheduled so I tuned in. As it turned out they didn’t show it and it was DT as usual. Has anyone noticed the fawning adoring messages sent in to the studio by his fans. One said “ Thank you for your education...

    Just when you think it can't get any worse........

    That’s my impression too. They make the whole buying thing very difficult. Firstly either you are prepared to pay almost double or try your luck at seeing it in presentation. It’s even practically impossible to find out when it will be shown. Jeff’s hours were so handy in that you could ask for...

    Who is this awful, shouty woman?

    I can take anything but the screeching. I don’t even mind Adina scratching and rubbing her nose as her voice is reasonably modulated. When I hear the screeching I don’t ’run for the phone’ I run for the mute button.

    Just when you think it can't get any worse........

    Oh how I wish they had competency related redundancies. As far as I can see they would nearly all go. Excluding Jeff who seems to know his stuff. Has anyone noticed they are now interfering with Jeff’s shows to their detriment. He has said a number of times that he’s not allowed to show some...

    Gemporia 'Downfall'

    It’s completely infuriating to see them do this again and again and seems particularly despicable to me when it’s done with low priced items where buyers are likely to be on a tight budget and trying to fool them. It seems keeping Mr T on mute is not enough to safeguard my blood pressure.

    Gemporia 'Downfall'

    I just tuned in to see what’s on and DT is flogging pearls. It was muted as usual but he showed a printed page with a heading INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS . How dare they say they don’t give investment advice. As far as I’m concerned it has stopped being about the jewellery and ALL about trying to...

    What's happened to Gemporia

    Thanks for that. Im embarrassed to say they might have got me with a stone I know nothing about if it wasn’t for this forum. The hype was unbelievable. Rightly so as it turns out.

    What's happened to Gemporia

    Does anyone know if unheated citrine is as rare as Adina was making out. Must admit I don’t know. I’m always inclined to think they are exaggerating. As it was only 199 it seems unlikely.

    Gemporia 'Downfall'

    Their presenters are absolutely awful. I was stuck in the middle of something today with the sound on and Kate presenting.. normally I mute the sound. Has anyone ever counted the times she says OH MY WORD. OH MY GOSH, and variations in an hour The very annoying and obviously put on exclamations...

    Price mark ups in auction

    It’s covered by their own 6 month guarantee. You don’t need the return slip either to my knowledge. Go to my collection and look up the details and put them in package with it. you could say in your review that you’re sending it back. They can’t refuse to refund you for price plus your return...

    Price mark ups in auction

    The emerald looks nice. It’s not too dark. I see emeralds in jewellers that are almost black. Don’t like them at all. Don’t know where they’re sourced as jewellers never seem to have that info.

    Just when you think it can't get any worse........

    Don’t know if anyone noticed but they are actually putting countdown clocks on for the great man’s hours. Couldn’t believe my eyes when I realised what the clock was for. Be still my heart.

    Just when you think it can't get any worse........

    Same here. I will not pay their list price which is ridiculous. And now Jeff has more or less stopped giving good discounts it’s difficult to see a way tobuy items of interest. Actually it’s always been a channel geared to impulse buying rather than looking for a particular item. It’s out of the...
