Ring Problem

[BillysBride]

Ok, so we just got my ring back from the jewelers today...he hasn't officially "proposed" yet so I'm not even supposed to be wearing it, but I'm freaking out, cuz he came down and sat on the couch and goes "Is it supposed to be loose?" I'm like "Loose, how?" and he goes "C'mere." and he holds it up and shakes it real hard by my ear...you can hear a really faint rattle! I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that is NOT right.

 

Anyone have this happen? I'm not worried, cuz I'm marching my happy a** right in there in the morning and telling the guy he's gonna fix it and at no extra charge. I've just never heard of this happening before, and I don't wanna take any chances with my precious dream ring.

Yes, you should definitely take it back and get it looked at. I know you're excited to wear it, but you don't want to take the chance that the stone will fall out.

I would definitely take it back to get fixed. And when you get that rock on your finger you better be posting pics of you bling!

[Maura]

you DEF need to take that in to have it fixed. it should NOT move, twist, turn, rattle or anything like that!

Another thing we have in common- This happened to my ring!! I looked down one day & thought it might have moved. I realized I could rotate it slightly. I took it in 2 weeks ago & had it tightened. It cost $35 & he had it fixed by the next day. I was telling a friend about it & she looked down at her ring & saw one of prongs wasn't even touching the stone.

 

So yes, I think these things do happen.

I think I need to have a conversation with my mother tonight Morgan...ask her about any secrets she might be keeping about my birth, cuz I'm tellin ya, you're my Caucasion twin. No joke. hahahaha

I'm taking it in. I'm just ticked cuz ALL this man had to do was mount the damn stone...we brought the setting and the stone in to him, with the mount head made to the EXACT measurements of the diamond. All he had to do was mount the stone and make sure it was in there securely. I mean...is that really that hard for a licensed jeweler Geez!

BTW, y'all know I cheated and took pics, so if you wanna see, I'll post if majority rules. I was thinking I'd just wait til I got to wear it "officially", but y'all know that as a member of this forum, I cannot in good conscience miss an opportunity to take a picture.

[boscobel]
