errrrmmmmm I gave that away as well a friend pestered me for ages to buy it off me as she loved it, in all honesty I didn't wear it, never had, cos it was quite proud and I was worried about knocking lumps out of it, anyway, my friend had a 40th birthday so I wrapped it up for her to stop her pestering me and she cried buckets when she opened it
my best ever buy was a 3ct ruby with a central brilliant cut stone and two triangle cuts either side. it is a corker and cost me £89. it was valued at over £900.
also my earliest Alex ring was a three stone about a carat and huge colour change, cost me abotu £50 and again valued at least 10 times that
