Default Good place for Engagement ring??

Sup everyone, lol first off i know weird post, but i have been saving up some money to get my g/f a ring, every week i throw in like 20/50 or even 100 bucks and im up to about $700 right now, its not much but im reallllllly tempted to spend it on goodies for my car lol i live in NYC btw

so my question is, do you guys/girls know any good spot where they sell really nice Engagement rings buttt is within my price range $$700-1200 ??

my buddy told me in china town in nyc has great deals but you have to know how to bargain with them but what do think?? Iv been with her for about 8 years and i think its time to step it up a bit lol

http://bidz.com

Its ridiculous that jewelry can sell for that cheap, but it does. I personally haven't bought anything through there yet, but some of the gang at work spent <$200 and got tons of rings and stuff.

They're legit. Just find out what her ring size is and shop by that. Those aren't toy rings. Many come with certificates saying they are what they say they are. Esp. the Rolex watches.

Well, if you were in WI I'd send you to my 'ring guy.' Look for retired jewelers that still work out of their homes for some extra change.
