Why would you even ask that question, Meri? o___0 damn.
I've said it before, and given extensive, probably whiny, reasons about why not.
Never
will I ever
try out for staff.
Ever.
And how dang hard can it possibly be to find a good ring or pair of earrings to give my mother for Christmas? I've already returned 3 because, despite being advertised as "size 8," they really weren't size 8.
And I'm tired of receiving flawed gems. If I buy some 3mm round garnets, I flipping expect them to be cut perfectly, not be all mangled on one side. And my 3 sunstones are very cracked and look more like glass than sunstones.
I can't even return them.
Pissed.
Oh, and deceiving photographs. Yeah, I get that you want your product to look bootiful and appealing to the customer, but it's just not right to take a picture of your most perfect pieces and send out all the flawed or ugly pieces, or to take a pic from an angle that suggests the stone is vastly larger than it really is, while not giving dimensions for the band. I need to know this stuff, dammit! I don't want to be bamboozled! This is the kind of stuff that gets sellers negative feedback!
Oh, yet one more thing. I buy three different pairs of earrings from the same seller. The flawed garnet ones, some blue mystic topaz ones that are SO much more washed out than the pic shows, and a nice pair of golden mystic topaz ones. I leave neutral feedback for the bad garnet and the blue mystic topaz (because I can't return them and/or have them replaced), and a positive review for the golden topaz. Seller leaves feedback for the golden ones, but not the other two because they are a total ass who apparently doesn't want to fess up to their own mistakes. Screw that!
I was hacked. Not going to remake all my groups and such unless I feel like it. That's a lotta work. Don't bother with trades, everything's a mess.

Will offer
reasonable overpay.

Reduce idiot level.
