It's a worry !!I’m still waiting on a refund. They have not acknowledged. I have tracked and the6 have received. They confirmed I would get an email and still nothing. Shoddy.
I caught about fifteen minutes of her Ruby Show yesterday. Still not a single mention during the show that these fabulous rubies are all fissure filled. Just the constant stressing that they are Malagassi rubies. TBH does that really mean anything? I’d much rather they say ‘These are a great size and colour. and we’ve filled them with liquid glass for stability’. How hard could that be?Angeline on, sneering about silver chains that would break if you sneezed. That's after pushing a huge lump of dyed resin with a legally-compliant amount of ruby, set in 1.85g of gold (and that's average across the sizes!).
(And don't get me started on her comparing real rubies to Gemporia's Malagasy "ruby".)
I actually sent a message saying that I'd noted how all the rubies were filled and asked 'is this the norm for rubies'. Needless to say my message wasn't shown nor was it addressed in any way. I did find it incredibly annoying how she kept referring to that one fabulous ruby which cost millions and comparing theirs with it. I'll admit colour wise it was very close but that's where the comparison stopped.I caught about fifteen minutes of her Ruby Show yesterday.

You can't make a dent with Angeline, Lynn and Ellis they know best! They are totally without principles! I never watched Ideal World but judging by the comments on here I doubt there is little difference between the presenters. Imo. I think who sickens me most is Steve Bennent.I actually sent a message saying that I'd noted how all the rubies were filled and asked 'is this the norm for rubies'.

Ellis was a presenter on IW for years until she came back from a period of sickness, fell out with management, and then abruptly disappeared from the channel.You can't make a dent with Angeline, Lynn and Ellis they know best!

That’s typical of Gemporia really. They will stress the importance of unenhanced untreated stones when it suits, and on the rare occasions that they respond to a question about treatments, it’s dismissed as ‘Industry Standard’. I’ve messaged in on a Visage show in the early days regarding testing on animals and got no response from Katie, but they had time to show lots of other ‘Oh Katie, you’ve changed my life’ messages which came in after I sent mine. I emailed the CS department and was told it was cruelty free. But they have not opted to pay to use the Leaping Bunny logo, or have their suppliers checked by PETA. So that speaks volumes for the rest of the business.I actually sent a message saying that I'd noted how all the rubies were filled and asked 'is this the norm for rubies'.

I didn't know she had been On Ideal World I saw her on TJC then she appeared on Gems. She appears to think she is a mega star with her singing, and constantly referring to her showbiz days. How many years ago was that? Her insincerity appears more since she has found this new lease of life. Mind boggling! Making it more galling are the 2 ladies singing her praises, her, being so honest and genuine. Am I missing something here? Is it me? I find her totally false.Ellis was a presenter on IW for years until she came back from a period of sickness, fell out with management, and then abruptly disappeared from the channel.
Then she was on TJC for a couple of years, where she apparently loved everyone and everything there, before jumping ship to Gemporia.
Didn't they try to sell it previously? I agree it's not a good sign!They are selling their museum piece of morganite this evening. If that's not another sign they're strapped for cash I don't know what is.
I knew her from IW and used to enjoy watching her and the lovely Loen. I never saw her on TJC, I didn't know she fell out with IW though. I'm wondering if she's going to stay. She has cut out Fridays, but she doesn't seem as though her heart is in it anymore - I can't say I blame her cleaning marmite off rings for a living and she hardly ever promises us with every fibre of her being anymore either!I didn't know she had been On Ideal World I saw her on TJC then she appeared on Gems.

I strongly suspect that she ran out of moral fibre a few years backI knew her from IW and used to enjoy watching her and the lovely Loen.

Just switched on a moment ago, more flipping jade with mr trothAs has been mentioned a few times, all Gemporia seems to be selling these days is Jade (never ending),beads, nuggets, hours and hours of primal and CBD. Yesterday Ellis was doing a homeware bundle - bargain she said at under £20 (19.99) and, from what I saw, was obviously just stuff they couldn't shift on previous, very old shows and by old I mean going back to last year at least. In that old tat was the 'wash your worries away' soap dispenser. They must have a shed load of those 'cos Hattie was selling them on her show later that evening as a stand alone item.
Everything seems to be in clearance. You never used to see many Lorique pieces but they appear on the wheel all the time now as well as the collectors showcase that they do.
Along with the 'mega sale Monday' and the flash sales that are popping up everywhere I'd like to think that they really are clearing the shelves for something spectacular for their birthday, which is now just over a month away, but could the birthday surprise be that they're closing down!!!
It really does seem like the ship is still sinking unless the tugs get there just in time for their birthday.
