Hey all!
I''m getting married in 93 days and I still do not have a wedding band because I am so indecisive and I''m scared to bite the bullet for an online sale.

Nevertheless, I need to decide asap.

Sooo....here are the top contenders. It needs to be worn as a RH band because my engagement ring does not accommodate a band. (lesson learned!!!)

Criteria:
a) 14k or 18k white gold
b) 3/4 eternity (for future sizing)
c) under $1k after tax and shipping
d) bezel setting

Options:
1) eBay LOGR 1.03 tcw (for a size 6, I''m a size 4.5): http://cgi.ebay.com/1-03ct-DIAMOND-14K-WHITE-GOLD-WEDDING-BAND-RING-/390201862911?cmd=ViewItem&pt=US_Wedding_Bands_with_Diamonds_Gemstones&hash=item5ad9d7eaff

2) eBay LOGR 0.72 tcw: http://cgi.ebay.com/DIAMOND-14K-WHITE-GOLD-WEDDING-BAND-RING-/390201843083?cmd=ViewItem&pt=US_Wedding_Bands_with_Diamonds_Gemstones&hash=item5ad9d79d8b

3) ID Jewelry bezel: http://www.idjewelryonline.com/product_info.php?products_id=7108&cType=ER

WHICH DO YOU LIKE THE BEST? I will include photos below! Gracias Pricescope Amigos!!!
 
It depends on the look you're after! I don't like the last one - it looks too busy. Of the first two, the first looks more modern and sleek, the 2nd looks more antiquey and the milgraining makes the metal blend into the stone more. I prefer the first as the bezels are all close to one another without the little metal/solder gap between them like the 2nd.

Ditto, and congrats on your upcoming wedding.... so exciting!

Just looked again at the close-ups... the regular bezel (number 1) def looks the cleanest. The millegraining on the 2nd is nice, but in my experience, millegraining has to be just perfectly and delicately done to look excellent and this comes off to me as adequate, you know?
 
what style is your ering? if more modern, I would go with 1. If more antique, I would go with 2.

also I agree with missydebby that 1 might be a safer choice, because of millgrain issues...
 
Ditto (in addition to my previous comments).

That said, the only milgrain I own is Leon Mege (just tiny weeny eternity bands) so I have been spoilt. Not sure I could handle bigger milgrain now!
 
This is my e-ring.
The wedding band will be a RH ring because nothing will sit flush or look appealing on my left hand.

I like #1 too. Thank you missydebby and slg47.

I don''t have milligrain on my e-ring, however, the style is a bit vintage so I thought the milligrain would look cool. BUT I trust your milligrain quality judgment! Decisions...decisions..

I VALUE AND READ ALL YOUR OPINIONS! SO HELPFUL.

Please keep commenting :)

oh, I somehow forgot to read that this ring would be on your RH...

I was going to suggest a thinner band but if this one is alone on the RH I think you would want something that you can see!
 
None of these are 3/4 eternity. Are we just picking for style?

I personally am going to be different and pick #3. I think the size steps in the stones make it pop which is good for a RHR.
 
I think it will be between #1 and #3. I was planning on asking for a sizing bar or 3/4 eternity.

The price difference is about $500. I should definitely take advantage of the 30 day return policy and buy both?!
