Sorry to hear about your loss. Between my wife's engagement ring, her two wedding rings (one for work...working in a chemistry lab FTL), and my wedding ring totaled $1,200. She didn't even want a diamond originally either and hates jewelry. I love my wife. :mrgreen:

zerioustt 06-28-2007 09:04 AM

Wowzers that thing is humongous! I hope you hired a midget to carry her hand. Not my cup of tea but to each their own. I think diamonds should fit the hand and not be over powering. My fiances ring was 3500, what's the rating on the diamond?

Ps hope that's paid for..

MPowerKai 06-28-2007 09:26 AM

I thought it was going to be a car or motorcycle when I clicked in. When is the big day?

10k on a diamond or an s13 hmmm
you must really love someone or just really love diamonds lol

turbo4g63 06-28-2007 10:42 AM

that's a hell of a rock....poor guy, she must have you trained

Scapegoat 06-28-2007 10:45 AM

my girlfriend doesn't care, as long as it sparkles she's happy... 10k for a damn rock :roll:

I never understood why diamonds cost so much :o

dancemf666 06-28-2007 10:50 AM

well if its a engagement ring its suppose to be 3 months salary.

TROLL 06-28-2007 11:07 AM

how big is that, hard to scale it really from the photo, but i gotta say it looks massive for a diamond. not sure really how much they cost but even for $10k it seems really big.
if the 3 month salary thing is true then i'm sure there are plenty of ballers out there getting $10k engagement rings, but this one still looks... bigger.
anyway i'll just say congrats, hopefully a congrats is in order. right now i'm happy one of my oldest best friends co-owns a high end jewelry store and hooks it up. some day, some girl will reap those benefits.

It's not JUST a rock, it's a pressure rock :-p

1. I really hope you are joking that you spent 10K on a diamond.

2. There is no way I am spending 3 months salary on a ring.

3. There is such a thing as too big. Example: If women can see that your schlong can touch your knee it will get attention. Doesn't mean you will get laid more.

zerioustt 06-28-2007 01:39 PM

I heard of that three month rule....BS! My fiance would need a wheelbarrow to carry her hand around...lmao. Worthless IMO, I'd rather buy a house a sweet stuff to put in it and have some savings. Any play money goes towards the toys.

drew 06-28-2007 01:56 PM

3 month? man my girl will be lucky if i spend 3 day's pay on something i can't drive

gpzjack 06-28-2007 03:32 PM

She better swallow and take it in the back door

markley02 06-28-2007 03:46 PM

I spent less than half of 10K on her ring. I get complements all the time from all of her friends over the ring I got her.

ITSTOCK 06-28-2007 03:53 PM

I would pay $10k for a ring if that's what the girlfriend wanted. Luckily, she found a "commercial" ring (as in it's a generic store made ring, hundreds/thousands floating around) that's under $2000. I've spent less on watches for her, not a bad deal!

And BTW, the DIAMOND INDUSTRY started the 3 months salary general rule of thumb theory, just as they completely control the supply of diamonds (there are MILLIONS of diamonds left in storages across the world).

Quality, not quantity. In all reality, $10k for a GOOD diamond does NOT buy you a huge ring. For example, a 2-3 carat stone in the $10k range buys you a decent sized diamond with a couple of flaws. In the real world, a NICE $10k diamond would only be 1-1.5 carats. Well under 2. A flawless $10k diamond would be 1 carat or less.

Size doesn't always matter. :lol:

ITSTOCK 06-28-2007 04:11 PM

BTW, it's impossible to tell the size of the diamond from that picture!

den9 06-28-2007 04:38 PM

if i ever ask a girl to marry me ill be sure to be jobless so i dont have to spend 3 months pay.

10k? ****, she better take it in the back door while eating another girl out and then snowball the money shot while you rail away for round 2 on the other girl

EvlEgl 06-28-2007 05:04 PM

You won't have to spend anything becuase she'll say no since you are jobless. Unless she needs you so she can get a green card. Then she'd still bang other dudes on the side.

Dave 06-28-2007 05:24 PM

jay you shoulda "lost" the trash can first ;)
