I really think you should push for a return based on you thinking it was Bvlgari and that they provided a box. FWIW I have purchased genuine Bvlgari on a cruise, full boutique, jewelry and all. It's out there!
Yes that's sure but you know, on the certificate it also isn't stated as Bulgari. So I still think it's kinda my fault. For sure if I would have asked, they would tell me it is not a Bulgari ring. All what I can do now is to sell the ring and hope for the highest possible amount I can get. All in all I think the others are right. 350USD I might get. Thanks by the way LovedogsI'm sorry to hear that. Sounds like they were purposely being misleading, which is exactly what I figured.
I paid this one thru cash. I think it's too late for a refund. Just hoping for a higher value than 650USD what I paid.It has been an expensive lesson in life, but not as expensive as some people have suffered!
How did you pay? By credit card? If yes, you should ring the card company and request a chargeback on the basis the goods were misrepresented and/or not as described.
Yes probably Anyways still I think still it was my mistake to purchase the ring. But no one is perfect and surely many people already fall for those kind of jewelry with low value hehe.I think @cflutist has done a lot of cruising recently and might have some experience she could contribute!
Exsctly. It's fake. Period. They are selling fake goods. Get your $ back.Yes at the inner side it says Bvlgari. The only explanation could be that
1. It is a fake
2. It is authentic but ring was customized (can't imagine but exists for sure somewhere)
Yes, it says at the top of the certificate Bvlgari but not sure since the ship has also their own certificates and SKU numbers though.
If the poster sells the ring as legit Bvugari or implies it is authentic or unknown, that would be deceptive. However, if the poster is selling a single item and says clearly that they are not selling as authentic, there is not legal restriction (in the US or Canada) to that on jewelry...I can't speak for every countries' laws. Jewelry is not the same as other objects (purses, wallets, art, etc.). Selling one of something is far different than selling 10,000 of something.If you try to sell it knowing it’s fake that would be illegal too. You need to try to get a refund.

Just can't imagine a cruise ship will sell non authentic stuff? Because for sure they would have serious problems than if some cruise passangers find out it isn't authentic and all.
I think this simplest thing for the poster would be to have the questionable Bvlgari mark buffed off. The stamp is the questionable part, not the rest of the ring. Then, just sell it by its specs.I’m no lawyer, but as an armchair quarterback I would speculate that it’s still illegal because the Bvlgari name is a registered trademark, and cannot be used without permission.
Agreed!I think this simplest thing for the poster would be to have the questionable Bvlgari mark buffed off. The stamp is the questionable part, not the rest of the ring. Then, just sell it by its specs.
