I'm sorry, and I do not mean offense to any Pixies' ladies... but what's all this about having a 'real' diamond? Why does it matter? Marriage is about love and commitment, or at least it should be, not about how much the ring is worth. I love what Ginger said,

I have no qualms admitting the engagement ring I bought my wife cost way under $100 and had no diamond, real or otherwise. She was thrilled with it nonetheless and I've never heard one complaint. (About the ring anyway  )
So in a nutshell, my opinion is that a ring from Costco, Wal-mart, or a pawn shop is perfectly fine. The quality of the person giving the ring is much more important than the cost of the ring itself.
