I agree with whoever said that the rings may not always be high quality. (aside from that emerald-cut Tiffany number... ) I work in a jewelry store, and we sell 1 carat rings for as little as $1299, but they are ugly as sin. Some people don't understand the concept of quality over quantity.
Personally, I don't get it... I have big hands and I will probably want a bigger ring. But when I think about $10,000 (the amount spent on a ring by someone I went to high school with who just got married), I think about what ELSE I could do with that money instead of putting a big hunk of carbon on my finger.
