I have been shopping on Gems Tv for about 6 months now and my advice is to consider carefully and buy wisely. It is a fab site to buy low cost gemstone jewellery, eg prasiolite, amethyst, topaz, tourmaline. It is not a good site to buy good quality paraiba, sapphire, ruby or emerald. These stones, at worthwhile quality, cost a packet. I would never consider buying diamonds or pearls from Gems TV - they may be affordable, but the quality is poor. Also, I feel presenters are less than explicit when it comes to treatments - what is the point of raving on about wonderful Mother Nature when the stone owes its colour to dying, diffusion or coating. When you receive a piece, check over the cut and colour carefully. If they are sub standard, return the piece right away. Distance selling and trading standard laws protect your rights. I have bought wisely and like what I got. I only ever returned one piece. I feel I got what I paid for. Gems TV has also opened a whole new world of gemstones to buyers - black spinel, charoite and aventurine for example. But, yes, it is highly addictive!
