I would like to trade the ring mentioned above for a boat. Your boat should be in decent shape (Running motor, solid hull (no rot), ect) I dont care if the seats or carpeting are worn as long as there is no or minimal rot. Let me know what you have email me (goes to my phone) or call/text 757816xxxx

(the ad has two photos of the ring. In the box, not on a hand. Hmmmmm)

sounds like someone drowning their sorrows. my guess is the future said no boat and he said, "gonna miss ya!" like the bumper sticker...my wife said it was either the boat or me...i sure am gonna miss her.

Re: so what's the back story on this one?

rings are hard to sell ! boats are not.
you cant pawn it unless you want 10 cents on the dollar

i had a 3/4 carrot ring for sale for a year. no buyers.....finally one drunk lady showed up.

you cant pawn it unless you want 10 cents on the dollar.

if i would have traded for a boat.....i could have sold the boat ten times faster than the ring.

Yep, so true. But it's still cheaper than marrying the wrong person.

I like this guy's priorities, trying to trade it for a boat.

I traded a men's gold and diamond ring i had for my motorcycle. Like oops said. I had an appraisel for $2300 and was offered $150 from a jeweler.

I wouldn't take the guys word on the ring. it could be fake or stolen or not be what they say.
