"no worries, id be flipping out too if someone told me that they are selling their car for a stripper named candy. that he met a month ago."

No way dude. THAT would be perfexctly understandable! Trading the car for a regular chick?

If cars are where you "kept" your money, I'd at least cash in for money to put down on a house or similar investment type rather than pay crazy-retail for diamonds. Jewler's mark-up is absurd.
You are basically selling your Porsche that is worth $10K (for example) and handing over $ 5k (if you're lucky) forthe value of the diamond and another $5k for the jewler to put down on his new porsche.

I learned my lesson. My engagement ring is now on ebay and will likely bring a fraction of what I paid. But, as I say in the listing, I'd rather see it go to a nice couple than sell it to a jewler who will mark it up 300% and sell it to some sap.

When I bought my second Porsche, it was either the car or cash in the bank for a wedding. We had issues to work out so I picked the car. Issues never got worked out...but I still have the car. And, a new woman who's totally understanding of my car sickness.

Good luck in whatever you do with the car or ring.
