Pawn it, hit up a jeweler, ebay? It does have some personal text inside - Te Amo... Pure White Gold though :)

Think it cost $700 a few years ago... i know i won't get close to this

The ex beautiful girl, inside and out, just didn't work out

Something tells me she wasn't slightly used if it is over already.

Why would you go there?

@ OP Ebay it. Or Pawn it if you need money right now and don't care too much.

See, now that is why i asked. She is beautiful inside and out, and she is the perfect wife. But it didnt "work" because you werent ready? Im guessing you found someone else, otherwise you would be a little more emotional about it.

One of my good friends just went through this, except the wife to be called off the wedding at T-minus two weeks. He finally got the ring back and put it up on Ebay for about half what he'd paid.

She designed it herself and it cost him $4000, that was the first indication to me that their future might have some rocky times ahead, not merely those of the diamond variety.

I kind of wonder what to do with my ring too. I might just wear it on my other hand and pretend it wasnt a wedding ring. That or save it, just in case I get married again... ;)

In addition to ebay and CL, you might as well list it in the FS/T forum here as well. It would not be the first one listed. Also, you can check with local jewelry stores and see if they do any consignment sales.

Keep it and wear it. It will help you pick up slutty chicks in bars. Then once they find out you aren't really married (the next morning or whenever is convenient for you of course), that will get rid of them. Win - win for you.

i don't think maturity equals marriage, two people could be of equal maturity and one could find marriage important and right for them, and another could see it the exact opposite way. but yes to what you were saying :)

Why the fvck do you nosy buttwipes care? Mind your own damn business. If he wanted to talk about why his relationship ended he'd have posted it. But he didn't. He just wanted ideas about what to do with his ring. That's it. So take your judgemental self-righteous holier-than-thou comments and shove them up your fudge packer hole. Jeez get a life.

the price of gold has gone up quite a bit the past you so you may get a pretty good return on your investment.
