I am getting a little worried. I started searching for an engagement ring about 8 months ago (on and off since then) and about a month ago I went into a local shop to just look around. The older gentleman behind the counter helped me and I ended up putting a ring on lay-away. It was a 14k white gold setting that resembled the ''Naked Diamonds'' peter storm collection (it says something about Ashi Diamonds, not sure about that company though). The center stone was roughly .5ct and the 6 other stones probably totaled roughly the same. I saw the asking price on the ring and it was $3800. After we spoke for a bit and he asked me what my budget was, he ended up offering me this ring for $1900. I absolutely love this ring and the setting and I think that my GF will love it. For some reason I am getting cold feet in getting this ring. I did not do all the things that I wanted to do when I originally started looking. I acting completely on emotion of finding something that looked great. All the other center stones I have seen were horrible and overpriced and the salespeople talked like they were the most beautiful things they have ever seen (even though there were very visible inclusions).
Maybe it is just the nervousness of making a purchase of something that symbolizes your love for someone and that you hope they will cherrish.
Maybe I just needed to type this out to calm down
