I've bought a few pieces from JTV and I like them.  A Bella Luce ring to wear instead of my diamond at work.  And a fun pair of Bella earrings.  They came beautifully packaged and fairly priced.  I would buy from them again.

The hosts are certainly a trip...with all the hair and gross two inch nails.  Yikes!

@gertrudecloset  Iti's just the corundum for me.  Otherwise I'm not really interested in gem stones.  They're the most unique of gem stones.  I remember watching Gem shopping and the host mistaken a tranzanite for a sapphire.  He caught himself and comment if dark blue tranzanite had been a sapphire, the cost would have been $150,000 instead of the $5,000.00 that stone would fetch. In fact several of the hosts have mistaken the dark tanzanites for the Cashmere sapphire.  They usually catch them selves and apologize.  My most expensive gem is a sapphire from Ceylon.(Sri Lanka) It's one of those corn flower blue, one of those bright electric  blue sapphires.  I have other sapphires and rubies, but no other gem stones.
