Engagement ring
Seeing how I will no longer be needing it I need to get rid of it. I had it custom made by Elsa Rings in New York. 14k WG setting with a .79 carat Princess cut VVS2 Color L diamond very good symmetry with and excellent polish. I have the GIA certification for the stone. This ring would cost someone over $2200 to have made. I want it gone so $1900 obo. Horrible picture I need a new camera. Oh and its a size 8.

You just have to have the attitude that it is probably for the best and you are young so there will be more.

From watching Judge Judy for countless hours (before we had kids) the ring is a form of a contract, if you didn't get married you are entitled to the ring back

Matt, this is something that is best not rushed into. I have a friend who was engaged 3 times before he finaly got married. I just held out for the right girl. You could always keep the ring and put the diamond into something else.....or wait till next time and hope the next one has the same taste in rings....because there has never been a show where someone has gotten in trouble for giving a second hand engagement ring

No I have had it long enough I can't justify doing it. They are a class act company and are entitled to my money.

This is bad becuase this is a for sale thread but it seems like everyone else who has had it happen to them has posted so why not. I was pretty much brain washed by my ex and she cheated on me the whole time we where together. She was in a college town for a MRS degree and when i told her that i needed more time, she jetted. Sticking me with a $700 dress bill and taking the engagement ring and selling it to pay for her new apartment without even asking me if i wanted it back, what a b/t(#. anyways, i wish i was like you and got over it quick, i dwelled on it for a while, gained weight, got depressed, made up stories in my head why she did it and all that. But in the end she was just a hoe and that was all there is too it. I am not ashamed to tell anyone this because i am a firm believer of not doing it unless you are 100% ready and sure that it is what you want. i do not believe in divorce and i would have a hard time doing it if it came down to it. ztrack, like everyone says, its probably for the better and that seems to be the way you are taking it. GL on the sale and hope everything ends good for you in the end.
Some of the best advice i got was from my mom, she said, think of a relationship as a math problem. a person with all of there business in order, physically, emotionally, financially, etc. = 1, someone without this in order is =/= 1. It takes 2 to make a couple, not 1.5, or anything < 2. So for the relationship to work out you have to be two whole people (both = 1) to make the relationship work (1+1=2). See math does solve alot of lifes problems. |

sorry about your ex. good luck with the sale. but like some others have said, i would try returning it first. if they say no, then i would try to sell it.
about 13 years ago, i bought a $9000 diamond and the store gave me the setting for free. i proposed to my gf of 6 years. she turned me down. we broke up. the shop just charged me $250 to unmount the diamond and setting, but otherwise gave me a full refund. |

That is a lot of track days. Unfortunately she has picked out a special setting and pear shaped stone. I'll hook you up with deals on track days when you want to come out.

Come out and do a track day or two and see how you feel. I teach the New Racer School as well. If you take the school on your 250 you will most likely get me as your instructor.
