Topic: Ring box

I have a ring but no ring box. Jewelery stores I call say they have ring boxes for the rings they sell but not for individual purchase. This helps be naught. Where are likely candidates for me to find this mystical ring box?

And while these are cool. I'm not paying $200 for a ring box.

I went to a jewelry store to have a ring resized, after seeing the ratty condition of the original box the woman helping me gave me one of theirs free of charge.

Not sure if it'll help, but I guess my advise would be to go into a jewelry store and ask if they sell 'em, maybe you'll get lucky enough to have a friendly salesperson give you one.

I consulted three sources, one of them being google and the other two arguably being 'expert' before asking you chucklefucks. So eat a dick.

I'm sorry, you should pay $200+ for your ring's box.

How else would you expect to pass a ring worth more than that? A box of Cracker Jacks?

It just seems like a waste considering that ideally the ring will be on her finger the vast majority of the time after I give it to her.

There are some nice ones here.

Another idea is to buy a jewelry box, especially if she doesn't have one already. She wouldn't know what to expect if you give her a larger present, then have the ring inside.

You could also present her with a teddy bear (or a stuffed animal) and tie the ring around the neck with a ribbon. Saw a guy do this at Christmas time, but with a diamond bracelet.

If it's anything like my wife's ring box then she'll never even think about it after it's out of it. Just freaking hand her the ring.

Go with Vernal's suggestions. I agree fully with her.

Women know best. Don't spend a fortune on a box, it'll just go into a drawer somewhere, never to be seen again.

I went with a $20 ring box. It's wood which makes me feel less cheap. But it isn't handcrafted by specially trained Peruvian beavers expensive.

I can tell you from personal experience working for a jewelry vault that tried too hard to also be a builder, is that the packing material for jewelry is dirt cheap even for the nicest of its crap. On the other hand, jewelry stores don't often order extra, empty materials.
I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?
