Title: Speaking of rings Post by: Tim Collins 333 on January 02, 2002, 05:00:00 AM When we went to the jewelry store to look at rings, she stated that she had been looking at one for a month because " I hope you are the one". "But Tim, it is 900 rubles" ??????????????????????? "900 rubles, just pick out any ring you want" Probably the only time in my life I felt as if I was Donald Trump. I think we got the second most expensive ring at 3800 rubles. Ya just gotta love Russia!!! Yoshkar-Ola of course, NOT Moscow. tim

Hey Tim, Glad to hear of your good fortune. Even outside of Moscow, prices can run higher than what you quoted--but still much better than in the U.S. For me, the big thing was that I wanted to make sure that it was a Russian diamond. The jewelry stores here looked at me like I was crazy when I asked where the stone was from. Good luck, Steve M. |
