I Do Now I Don’t: Buy and Sell Engagement Rings (and more) at Great Prices!

Did you know that jewelers mark up rings two or three times over their wholesale cost? According to Joshua Opperman, founder of I Do Now I Don’t, a $10,000 ring probably cost the jeweler $3,500. Why should you have to pay so much more than the ring is actually worth? Well now, couples looking to purchase their dream ring can do so without breaking the bank. And those couples who find themselves with a ring but no engagement, can find a place to re-sell their diamonds.

How I wish I’d know about I Do Now I Don’t when I got engaged! I have never asked my husband how much my diamond ring cost, partly because I really don’t want to know, but I’m sure he paid TOO MUCH for it, no matter how beautiful it is! I’ve never been comfortable with the thought of spending that much money on one, small piece of jewelry.

The good news is that YOU don’t have to pay inflated prices for your engagement ring! You can buy and sell on I Do Now I Don’t with complete confidence. Their gemologist is trained by the world’s leading authority on gemology, the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), and she certifies that each diamond and gemstone jewelry is exactly as described in the seller’s listing. I Do Now I Don’t also GUARANTEES each buyer that your purchase payment will not be released to the seller until our gemologist has given her expert’s seal of approval.

Many of the engagement rings come with a story thrown in for free! Joshua Opperman I Do Now I Don’t‘s founder, shares his story too. After being engaged for three months, he was devastated to find that his fiance had packed up and left her engagement ring on the on the coffee table looking up at him as if to say “So, what’s next?” What came next is that Josh tried to sell the ring back to the retailer and received a pitifully low price. So he launched I Do Now I Don’t and began searching for love anew… and succeeded in both respects: I Do Now I Don’t is flourishing, and Josh married “the real love of his life” this past August!

So I Do Now I Don’t doesn’t just let you buy and sell jewelry, it also gives hope that what may seem like the end of the world may very well be the start of something very wonderful.
