Does anyone own this ring from Lord of The Rings?

Was unsure in which forum to post this in so please move if you feel so.

Just got the Two Towers on DVD. I couldn't wait till the EE. Anyway saw a leaflet advertising THIS
and was wondering if anyone has it. I am thinking about getting it but would like your opinions on it and is it worth 75 bucks?

The local Media Play had the bookmarks that had a tassle with a ring attached.

Paid 2 bucks or so
Tossed the boomark and tassle
Bought a small hinged wooden box
Stained it and lined it with velvet

Saved myself a ton of money and I think it looks pretty sweet and like it is worth more that a Taco Bell Meal.

I don't own that version, but I do own the gold version available from the same company. I would definitely say it is worth the $75. And I agree, anyone who has spent less than that on an engagement ring is either really cheap, or really old.

Didn't they have a $500 version when the first movie came out? Real gold, made by a real jeweler, to size -- not like this overpriced trinket.

I might have to pass on it. For $75 think of all the used DVD's I could get!

They only do the 75 buck one in size 10.

I'm still considering it so thanks for your opinions anyway.

I don't know about the ring, but if I had an extra 500 bucks lying around I would definately buy that chess set.

And I'm curious as heck to see what that holographic ring machine really looks like.
