My philosopy is the thought. I mean whether you spend $200 or $20000 on an engagement ring, she should still love you no matter what. I'm in college and so is my gf, I spent about $250 for hers. It was a $600 ring, but was on sale(there is a hell of a markup on jewlery). It's not the most expensive or nicest ring in the world, but it gets the point across that I want to spend the rest of my life with her.

Just my .02

Wish I could get the wedding ring back from her now
Why don't you? If you two are divorced, legally she has to give them back. It's on Judge Judy all the time. :exnbp:

turbo kits don't show he's married, he can be more of a pimp and cheat on ya. No tan lines on the ring finger due to a turbo kit lol

I agree if a person is worried about how much it cost then they are in it for the wrong reasons.
