I would like to have a engagement ring with a mystic fire store instead of a diamond?

I think you should have whatever you want. If a topaz has sentimental meaning for you, that's far more important than a diamond. Giving diamonds is a tradition someone else started; it's not your tradition. Too many people follow the herd and do what they think everyone else wants them to do. Good for you for wanting to do your own thing. What I think is classy  and beautiful is a woman with a wedding band and no engagement band at all, so you could consider that, and wear the topaz separately.

You should buy his.  If its important to you that they match, you should shop together.  If not, get something you think he will wear.  For example, does he like yellow or white gold?  With or without little diamonds?  Designs or not?  Talk to him about his preferences so you will have a better idea.\nCongrats and best wishes!!

You're going to be wearing this ring for a long, long time, hopefully for the rest of your life, so for heaven's sake, get what you like! A good bet is to think about the jewelry you wear now, the stuff you find yourself grabbing again and again because you prefer it and it flatters you (watch, earrings, necklaces, etc.) If it's mostly yellow gold, then that's probably what you should choose in a wedding ring.\n\nAnd, no, there's no reason in the world that your two rings need to match. You are two different people, with two different styles, which is a great thing, and should be celebrated. (by the way, my fiancee chose an antique styled yellow gold band, and I chose a more modern styled white gold one. we have the same psalm inscribed in our rings, which unites our two very different styled rings.)\n\nGood luck, and congrats!

I would say just be happy that you have a man that would buy you nice things, but if it's just killing you to know, take it to a reputable jeweler to get it appraised, but be careful about leaving it over night because I saw a 20/20 report about jewelers taking out real stones and replacing them with crap and if yours is real you may get ripped off.

An engagement ring from some-one close to you or some-one you wanted to marry?

I assume as she's your fiance you've already given her a ring that means you'll love her forever it's called an engagement ring and she'll get another one when you get married (wedding band). Other than that you could give her an eternity ring?

I hope you mean the ring itself, and not the diamond.\nTake it to a jeweler.  They can put a little adjustable band thingy on it so it will fit the finger better.  That costs about $5-10.  Or they can torch the ring & actually MAKE IT smaller.  Won't work on CZ's, because they'll burst, but a good quality diamond should be able to withstand the heat used to modify the size of the ring.

ebay, just make sure you note that it is REAL diamond jewelry--there's a lot of fake stuff on there, so point out that yours isn't CZ in the description and put "REAL AUTHENTIC DIAMOND" in the headline

you can get a lot of nice rings for under £150. i have a pink sapphire and diamond ring that cost around £70. take a look @ www.hsamuel.co.uk , a word of advice it will b quicker to order online rather than go buy in the store cos they only have like 1 size of each ring

Being on the poor side of life i did not get an engagement ring til i was pregnant with our 2 kid and i got the wedding ring after #3 came along. Walmart is where we got the rings both times, they were doing a sale at the time and they were arougd $70.00. Thank god for lay-0-ways.

I think the whole tradition of rings should be done away with.  Is it really necessary to spend thousand of dollars on pieces of metal to show your commitment to each other.  Save the money and invest or buy something you actually need.  If you are going to stay with this old ritual I dont see any reason to try and update by sharing the cost so I guess I would say let the man buy both if you insist on tradion.  It is traditional after all.

ANOTHER ADVOCATE 4 EBAY\n\nI had an EBAY wedding! I got my dress, rings, shoes, bridesmaid dress, wedding night lingerie, all on ebay.  My ring is a marquise cut diamond - 1 carat, with two accent diamonds, 1/4 carat each, and small diamonds in the band (8 total), white gold. THe diamond is an I in color an SI in clarity. I paid less than $1400 with shipping. I love it. His ring was made of Tungsten steel, very shiny and different, and scratch resistent, he got his for under $20!\n\nAll depends what you are looking for, jewelry searches are easy on ebay and most sellers are very reputable, just check their ratings! My ring came from a seller in NY, they seemed to have the best deals.

If you can't afford the ring you deffinately can't afford a wife!  If it is love you could give her an aluminum ring and she will love you for the sentiment and it won't matter to her.  Otherwise save your pennies and buy it out right, there is no point giving the woman you want to make you wife a ring you haven't paid for yet, you don't want repo depot showing up for that.
