JTV

Watching JTV today off and on. Very pretty Herkimer pieces. I wonder why there are so many male hosts on there. I prefer to see women present jewelry. Just my preference. Nothing wrong with male hosts just my preference. They seem to have more male hosts than other channels, or maybe it's just the same ones all the time lol. Anyway I purchased a lapis ring today. Free shipping. Yipeeee. For those who love and collect crosses they just showed a hirkimer cross that is beautiful. Item HKR012. Have a nice evening ladies.

Yes the Herkimer pieces are pretty. From what I see on JTV the male host give a lot of history behind the gems and the ladies are the one who model most of the items. I kinda like the combined hosts as I have learned a lot about the different types of gem stones.

You know I did notice that tonight. This guy gave all kinds of information about the hirkimers. It was interesting after I took the time to listen.

That's because it's revolving door in terms of hosts on JTV but it's always women they dump. Granted the male hosts have a wealth of knowledge regarding gems and jewelry. So do some of the long time female hosts and they aren't just there for show. It's the younger, newer female hosts who are just there to model the jewelry. I saw that Herkimer cross, I thought about but the fever passed.

I guess I have not been watching that long as I have only seen 3 male hosts and the other males have been vendors (who seem to want to be the host and sell). I also noticed Wendi from EVIVE has joined the JTV host lineup. I like JTV but have to turn the television off as my wallet is on the edge. I almost caught the fever with those Bella Luce round talbe items for $25!

it probably is just 3. I am probably seeing the same ones over and over lol. I don;t watch much but it has been snowing all day where I am so I watched today and got the lapis ring that was on the turn table. It was under $35 and stretch pay and free shipping, so I brightened my day lol.

I like all the guys, they are knowledgeable & entertaining.

The women are not just models, several of them are certified jewelers, been with the network for many years.

It's a jewelry network, they don't have to fool around with kitchen appliances & shoes.

I've ordered a couple of things from them. No complaints here.

I can watch JTV better than I can watch QVC with their antics & silliness.

I agree, I find myself watching them more and more. There are some lovely pieces on JTV.

Must say, I’ve bought many loose gems from them, after having them appraised, I’ve been very glad.

I saw Tanzanite, Chrome Diopside, Morganite, Tsavorite, Paraba Tourmaline, and Kunzite in loose stones available there way before they became so prevalent in other sites.

Enjoy the male hosts, I also think there are just three. They know so much. The founder died a few years ago, but when he was on, he offered some awesome deals.

Does JTV have a 'Today's Special Value'? I seem to always look for one but never can find it.

@SilleeMee--seems to me, that a few years ago, JTV tried to have a special value---that didn't last long and I remember that they tried to do the live caller thing too and thank heavens, that was short lived too. I have had very good luck shopping at JTV. Don't buy much and watch for free shipping. Been loving the pearls they offer. Have some gorgeous pieces. Love the herkimer. and used to enjoy the loose gem stones shows too but that is gone and now just jewelry.

No, they did for a short time, then stopped it.

They have 3 male hosts, Robert, Scott and Tommy.

JTV used to have the equivelent of a TSV and it was called a Brilliant Find. It kicked off at midnight. Then they stopped that but they periodically offer a Brilliant Find in a show but it's not like a TSV.

I have a love/hate relationship with JTV. I have the most issues with jewelry I've ordered from them. Bad quality right out of the gate, stones fall out or necklaces break right after the 30 day return period, items look much, much smaller when I receive them, stones are poor quality.

But, the pieces I've received that I've kept, are awesome pieces, were more than worth the price and they are the pieces I wear the most. I have a pair of inside/outside white zircon hoop earrings that I wear all the time. I have some Bella Luce pieces that are favorites of mine.

On another note, I had to return a Bella bracelet. I put it in the mail Sunday, paying the return on my own, and I received notification this morning that my return was processed and the refund issued! I think that's a record for any return I've made to anyplace.

They have pretty stuff and great prices, but the quality is not there.... Just today I returned beautiful earrings , one of them was broken. It was my second try and failure within channel. So no more.

Have had mostly very good experiences with JTV. My only disappointments were when I forgot the old adge about getting what you pay for. Have had a couple of occasions when my imagination overcame good sense and I wasn't delighted with the result, but generally have been pleased with my purchases.

I love JTV! I’ve been purchasing more items from them rather than the Q, and 99% of the time I’m not disappointed! They have super fast shipping and returns- they even do price adjustments on things I’ve bought that went on sale.

Bonus too- no tax!

I just received my lapis ring and it is so pretty. The Zircons really sparkle and the citrines really add a nice touch to the lapis. The lapis is square cut. Very cute design. Under 40.00 and no shipping cost I am happy with my purchase. I am wearing it now. JTV has very quick shipping.

I bought from JTV: Loose amethysts, a Sterling silver cast for earrings. Two of the amethysts are set in the earring cast. Also, a black spinel set: pendant and earrings.
