And enough left over to pay for another ! The wife and I went to the mall today and although I didn't get a written appraisal we did go into three different jewelry stores. It is a real blue sapphire 14 k and although I thought it was a mans ring they are saying woman's. Maybe that's why I can't get it off of my wife's finger since I brought it home. Now to the good news the average from all three stores we went into came out to a value between $1,800.00 and $2,200.00! I am a happy camper.... see the original post here |

It is rings like these that get you out of doing chores at home. She will always be sending you detecting to find her another. Getting another detector is easy now as the new equipment will find more stuff. Either way it is a fantastic looking ring.  |

great looking ring, where can you sell it? I've been trying to unload a 1/3 karat diamond with 16 small ones in 14K for the last 6 months, I've been offered 35.00 from a jeweler and 55.00 from a pawn shop, I just don't have the time to ebay or sit around waitin for someone from craigslist to call.
