[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 587902, member: 1233"] Keep us posted!!! I hope they can accept not living together or find a place near her school where he can commute instead. For the ring, it is great business! If possible, let him know that the markup on jewelry is at least 300%, meaning that if the jeweler pays $100 the retail price will be $400 = $100 cost and $300 markup. I have a relative on Dad's side who is a fifth generation jewelery store owner. He and my dad and all their other cousins grew up on the same block and though Dad knows nada about jewelry, I learned quite a bit. He should also be aware that the value he could get from selling that ring would be way less than what his friend paid for it. Esp at a pawn shop. HE might want to go look at a few pawn shops to see the prices of the wedding rings there. It is a shocker. [/QUOTE]
