I think its worth at least getting it smoothed out, and anything that is REALLY going to bug you. Some small quirks can be ok, its a unique ring. But you dont want to resent your ring either.*Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17572133516556386284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5312352287600069125.post-74691729602287725712009-02-26T18:21:00.000-08:002009-02-26T18:21:00.000-08:00Oh good!

And honey, if it's not what you want then have it changed! I mean, you paid for it, after all!! Just because you paid $300 (which is a lot to me!) doesn't mean you shouldn't get best quality.<BR/><BR/>Also-- I was DEFINITELY kidding about starving myself.

I've helped lots of people do the same, mostly by doing a ton of research before going into the dealership. I'm the car salesperson's worst nightmare!<BR/><BR/>@Joey- Just added you to my blogroll... and yes, that uneven milgrain that you could see was just a small manifestation of the badness.<BR/><BR/>We'll let you know how it goes tomorrow.zoliepuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097164398827729387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5312352287600069125.post-62431299222746897112009-02-22T19:24:00.000-08:002009-02-22T19:24:00.000-08:00Hey V it's me J, Bellenga!

I think it's because of the whole issue with the engagement ring. It's not usually like me to settle, but I just am having a hard time mustering the energy to be polite, firm and assertive in this case!<BR/><BR/>I'll let Chris give it a go tomorrow!zoliepuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10097164398827729387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5312352287600069125.post-27141209502235138592009-02-22T15:17:00.000-08:002009-02-22T15:17:00.000-08:00I would at least bring up the fact that it catches...I would at least bring up the fact that it catches on everything. You can't live with that for a very long time - either you or the ring will be somewhat destroyed in the end. <BR/>Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5312352287600069125.post-51771199711063423312009-02-21T18:44:00.000-08:002009-02-21T18:44:00.000-08:00I can't see the defects, but I still say you shoul...I can't see the defects, but I still say you should advocate for your consumer rights. I don't mean to sound melodramatic, but you're going to wear the thing for a very, very long time. If there's something they didn't get quite right, you should ask them to fix it. On the other hand, if it's something you'll forget about in a month, it might not be worth the stress. For example, I probably could've gotten another couple hundred dollars off my new car purchase, but the thought of haggling with multiple dealers made me queasy (I did it a little bit and got a significant chunk off the MSRP, but in the end, I decided my sanity was worth the couple hundred more I could have pushed it).<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Sara E.

I love the way it matches the engagement ring though.<BR/><BR/>Sandiedadrownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374799966209946533noreply@blogger.com
