I cannot even believe I am engaged!! I have been reading these boards
for the past 3 or 4 years now!
I always said I wouldn't want a name brand ring, but after walking
into Tiffany's several months ago, everything changed! I went in by
myself just to get ideas of what I'd like after my then boyfriend and
I decided to start looking. I saw the Soleste, tried it on and that
was it. I was texting my boyfriend all excited and crazed over the
ring. I asked them to hold it and looked at other rings at very
reputable jewelers in our area, I even went into Cartier and looked at
their classic cushion with halo. I always came back to the Soleste, I
was obsessed! The salesman told me they had to send the ring out
because 2 people in CA wanted it and were putting deposits on the
ring! I freaked and was all over my boyfriend, but he said I was crazy
and he was working with someone. I was miserable! For the last three
months all I've done is harass my boyfriend about this ring AND email
the salesman about finding us another one, about the price increase
and about transferring another one in. MEANWHILE, FAST FORWARD 3
months, we are engaged and HE GOT THE RING!! THE RING I tried on day 1
that I had gone wild over!! He had gone into Tiffany's when I told him
about the ring and got it! I found this out today when I went in to
show the salesman who was beyond exceptional and the manager came out
and said "Finally, we felt horrible lying to you all this time" hahaha
so it was never being sent to CA, it was being sent out to be sized
for ME!! I still cannot believe it!
My ring size is 5, but I told the salesman if I was ever getting this ring, I would want 5 1/4 because I like it to spin a little.
I do not know the specs except that it is F color and VS1 clarity.
My hands look awful, they are very dry.

Congratulations, Bagotrix! That is a perfect ring for your hand - it looks so elegant on you. I can see why you fell in love! :love:

I think that is AWESOME that your FI bought it for you - and how funny that the Tiffany staff had to keep up that front - what a great story! :appl: :appl:

Yeah for him - you gotta praise 'em when they get it right! :lol:

I didn't think I was getting the ring and I work in the mall where Tiffany's is located. I would avoid passing it because I was so embarrassed that I asked them to hold the ring and transfer others in to compare. When I spoke to our amazing SA today, he laughed so hard and said he would come into my store to eat at our cafe and avoid me because he was running out of lies!! It was also really frustrating passing Tiffany's everyday, I would go there everyday on my lunch break to try "the ring" on before they told me it was being shipped out! I am so happy, I still cannot believe this ring is mine and was in hiding for so long!
