Anyone got an engagement ring for sale?
Well.......My wife went to Tims Ford today to spend the day with friends on the water. She called about a hour ago and said that she forgot to take her ring off before tubing, now it's part of the bottom structure of Tims ford. I don't want to ever hear her complain about my fishing trips being expensive again! I am slightly sick to my stomach and trying not to be really upset with her, accidents happen but COME ON MAN!

Yeah, Bummer big time. I'm already shopping craigslist for a replacement. She is going to have to settle with something cheaper now that she's lost the first expensive one. I will have to admit, craigslist ads are entertaining when it come's to shopping for engagement/wedding rings.

Everybody has thier own thoughts on jewelry and such and to each thier own, but in all seriousness, Jewelry TV (JTV) has a line of stones out, man made, that have fire and brightness better than any affordable diamond and is almost as hard as a diamond. Its called Moissanite. My fiance has several pieces, my mom swears by the stuff and i will admit, it looks great and its a fraction of the cost.
But i understand that some women appreciate the real thing as well. LOL
My ring will be camo and is gonna cost about $100 sized and shipped to the house! LOL
If she dont mind man made stones for a replacement ring, check them out.
DISCLAIMER: Yes im a dude, and no, just cause i know a thing or two about jewelry doesnt make me a fruit, or any less of a man! LMAO

Man, When I was shopping for rings I was all into it. Making sure clarity and color was fantastic so I know a little about diamonds but not a lot. I am going to see what she want's to do for a ring. I don't care where it comes from but it's up to her. I just know at this moment the ring will not be expensive.

Check with your homeowner's insurance carrier. They may cover it in your policy.

Unless you have individual carriers on the ring it's only covered up to 500 if stolen. I never got a carrier on it. Guns yes, fisher gear, yes. Rings, For some reason, no! Learned my lesson. And for all you guys check your policy and make sure you have coverage.
