In the last 6 years, i have seen shopping channels come, and shopping channels go; but Gems tv have been consistant, they now have 3 channels across the board. I think that the bosses are sticking their toes into the water to see what we the buyers are actually prepared to buy. I think that once the current financial situation that we have has gone, it will be all back to normal as such, and Iron Fairies,Handbags and be-jewelled biros will fade into the background, i think maybe at the moment gems are cutting the suit according to the cloth (if i have got that saying correct) i dont see why they are going bust, they may be a little out of salts and lost their pazzaz, i think this will be temporary, whilst they all find their feet; but there will always be new customers, and at some point in time, even i will more than likely go and buy more jewellery; for me at the moment, i had a bad experience with 2 rings, i also had a bad experience once with an egg that had gone off - i was off eggs for a few months, then back to normal, as long as it is Scotty on! lol:13: personally, i do not think gems tv are going bust.
