Moissinite
Rings costing more is a scam
Yup, eBay customized ring, completely replaceable. We saved the money from the ring cost and put it towards a down payment. 1000% sure it was a better use of money
Same here. I think it was more like $300 for a pair of matching rings from a small etsy seller though. Hers with moissinite, mine with an inlay of copper and titanium shaving for some color.
Agreed, as someone who’s buying my fiancé a $12 Amazon ring. We’re matching!
The cost of the ring doesn't matter. Ultimately it's about what the ring represents; the bond and commitment you've made.
I was never a ring guy before, never really liked having things on my hands/fingers all the time.
Before we got married my wife got me an inexpensive, simple sterling silver comfort fit band from Kohls as a 'tester'.
If something happened to my current wedding band I wouldn't replace it with a new one, I'd switch to that old inexpensive silver one because a new one wouldn't be mine. It would be the one she slipped on my hand on our wedding day.
