I went to look at this tonight and it''s now $1,025. It JUST had a price increase one month ago. The price of platinum is going DOWN.
What is the meaning of this? The wealthy are getting wealthier? Let''s raise our prices just for fun?
This ring in gold is now $575. This represents several prices increases in quick succession.
I went to look at e Wedding Bands site, and I don''t like the rings as much. It seems that
they''re made from "tubbing." So this sound to me like they have tubes of platinum or gold,
and they slice them, like how you make frozen briskets.
I have this idea, maybe it''s naive, that the Tiffany ring is created in a different way, is nicer, you get what you pay for, yadda, yadda.
But I''m saving, and this price increase putting the ring at over $1,000 has made me angry. If I wanted to pay Cartier prices, I''d buy a Cartier ring.
Any advice about the differences in quality between Tiffany and e Wedding Bands? What
would you do?
I''ve watched the price of this Tiffany ring double, and these most recent two price increases have put me on the edge of wanting not to give my money to them (and I like that
company and their products, but I''m not happy about this one).
Thanks.
