JTV Reviews Summary

The company's reputation reflects a dichotomy of customer experiences. On the positive side, many customers praise the quality of the jewelry and the variety available, often expressing satisfaction with their purchases and the appeal of the products. However, significant concerns arise regarding customer service, with frequent complaints about delayed responses, unhelpful support, and inadequate handling of returns and exchanges. Issues with product quality and misleading advertising also surfaced, leading to frustration among customers. Overall, while the company has a loyal customer base, improving customer service and addressing product consistency could enhance its reputation.

Not lower because is not possible
December 13, 2022

I had even referred family and friends and they got scammed. They take your orders, call you... try to intimidate you by calling your bank. Withdraw all the money as possible and my mother's account closed in order to keep debiting money, her friend's account also closed the same day and mine too! We had to cancel our cards in order for them not to empty our accounts without a reason. The worse part is they keep sending emails for you to buy and fall in their scam!

Worst jewelry website
October 7, 2022

Tried ordering from this website twice -- both times I received a call from JTV telling me their "automated system" shows my billing address not matching with the one on my credit card. First red flag. Then they said the ONLY way to confirm the address is the same is to do a three-way conference call with my bank. Went through that the first time with them and it took WAY too long -- too many transfers to different departments just to verify a billing address! Asked the supervisor if I could just give a bank statement and picture of my CC. Nope. Conference calls only for a less than $150 purchase. Weird.

JTV makes jewelry affordable and gives someone like me on a fixed income payment options I can afford. They also have a multitude of different gemstones plus jewelry school if you make your own jewelry. I haven't loved every single thing I bought they aren't perfect but nobody is perfect. And their jewelry is fun affordable

Sold as new... very bad quality control
October 5, 2022

I bought a beautiful prasiolite ring and wanted the pendant to match so I ordered this pendant last week... when it came I opened the box and was so disappointed. The chain was grey and very tarnished although it is stamped DC 925 on the lobster claw. And there was 925 on a peice of metal attached to the end of the chain. The chain may be 925 sterling but looked like a a poorly made knockoff from Wish that they tried to pass as 925 sterling. Not even a nice looking knockoff chain. I would be embarrased to be seen with this necklace on. Also while the stone in the pendant was very nice the green garnets are very very small. There is no 925 hallmark on the basket but I did find the 925 hallmark on the bail with very high magnification while taking pictures for this review. Pictures were taken with white background to best show actual color of chain. You can see the difference in color between the pendant and the chain. Pictures taken with Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra phone without flash.
Edit... not green garnets. They are green diamonds

Best Return Policy Ever. Great Customer Service for 4 yrs. Great variety: costume, gold, silver, real jewels far more rare than diamonds - and diamonds. Better prices than Ebay, online, or brick/mortar stores. Educated hosts (check the credentials) educate me. JTV hosts are great! Real people from real America - no psuedo artsy snobs. Last pic: tsavorite garnet 10k earrings, 14k tanzanite beads, silver tourmaline bracelet, Keith Jack silver over 22k earrings. Stretch pay, auction & card w/interest free option made these & more possible. Hint: like anything else, don't let interest free option expire!

Forgot the champagne diamond necklace in there. It's 14k rose gold over silver but chain is 10k rose gold.
14k gold chain but had another pic showing chrome diopside turtle don't know where that went

Hit and miss
September 3, 2022

I never know when I order something if it will come undamsged or with loose stones. My biggest disappointment was a tanzanite ring in 10k gold. Paid over $800. Took it to 2 different jewelers for appraisal. Both of them said it was a stimulant and if it was real it wouldn't be set in 10k gold. Called customer service to complain. They wanted me to send it back to have their appraisers verify it was real. Of course I would have to pay for the appraisal.

Fake turquoise
August 31, 2022

I come from a long line of Navajo silversmiths. The "sleeping beauty turquoise" is just plastic resin. My uncle put in the cooking fire in his hogan, and it quickly melted. If there's no matrix, it is NOT real turquoise. Not a single piece in their Southwest Style collection was made by a REAL Native American silversmith. Selling these fakes is taking money out of the pockets of REAL Native American families! And their "composite turquoise" is made from the leftover scraps from the making of REAL turquoise. The large pearls are mostly fakes, and nowhere NEAR as "rare" as the hosts say they are.

I've bought from JTV over the past 3 years and my experience has been almost perfect except for a ring with many small diamonds. One of them fell out after only wearing 1 week. Even so, I gave them another chance. Saw a presentation for a 10k gold ladybug pendant encrusted with tiny diamonds. I had to have it! It looks as good as 14k but more durable. Now I prefer 10k plus it costs less. When I view their products I trust JTV to give precise weights and a gem treatment disclosure. I had a bad experience with another shopping channel that over stated the gram weight on a neck chain. It weighed half than what they put in the description. Anyway, I think buyers should know JTV's real gold jewelry deserves more positive reviews.

Very happy
June 25, 2022

I have been shopping with JTV for 9 months now and I have really enjoyed it. I keep the pieces I love and I return the ones I don't. They make returns easy with return prepaid mailing label and you can return for any reason. The shipping fee is deducted from the refund or you can mail it yourself. I especially love the pearls on the Precious World of Pearls and the Bella Luce line. I'm so happy I found JTV!

0.25CTW ROUND CHAMPAGNE & WHITE DIAMOND 10K YELLOW GOLD BAND RING
I bought this ring last July for myself for my birthday. I have a number of jewels real and costume that I like to mix and match. I bought two of these rings and wore them may be 3 times since then and noticed a tiny diamond missing. I am afraid to wear them again for fear that another stone might fall out. For the price I paid $344.23 for two I am seriously concerned about the quality and the manufacturers that are sending these items to the consumers, to us. It might be time to re-evaluate these items and to point out that what we see on TV as ex. 25 is really tiny, to be more transparent about these real diamond items. I have ordered many pieces of Bella recently and will be keeping an eye on the stones which are actually quite beautiful. I am now out of 1/2 of the $344.23. It would be great if I could get my money back or credit. I was planning on buying a Moissanite ring/item but now I am not sure. I also did not get a reply.

I sent in my 1.5 c marquee Diamond ring with matching band with 1/2 c diamonds. It went to a place up North that called me and offered me $283. But couldn't tell me what it was for ( I had loose stones too). So I said no return my jewelry. I then got a check in the mail and I called told them no I wanted my stuff back! I fought with them for almost 2 months! Eventually I spoke to someone at JTV that helped me! I had sent the uncashed check back! Don't use or trust JTV Gold exchange the independent buyers lie and try to trick you! I almost lost my very valuable jewelry for $283.00! I'm writing this to keep others from my nightmare!
Also my diamonds in the wedding bss as bd came back very small when they were the same as the engagement ring. Just sickening but glad I got them back!

Your show host
May 22, 2022

What is going on with your show host Mandy? Why does she say " you can rule the world with a great pair of hoops"? That is such a ridiculous comment to make… so unprofessional. I had to stop watching, because other show hosts started saying it as well. I no longer buy from your company because of this. Have a meeting with your team… maybe I'll check in with you, and if you stop this silliness I'll start buying again, or continue to buy from your competition.

Loose gemstones
May 8, 2022

I bought many loose gemstones many years ago. I bought singles and pairs in Burmese rubies, pink sapphire, tanzanite, etc. I took a pair of oval Burmese rubies to get one mounted for a ring. I was told that both were garbage pretty much. They had cracks that when heated for mounting, would have destroyed them. Plus, I was told that cut was off. The show talked a good game and I was so foolish to have wasted all of the money that I did on these loose gemstones.
