I agree to an extent
in that you don't need to spend three grand on an engagement ring. I would honestly prefer something that was more unique than expensive (even if it was from Accessorise or wherever), but I'd get paranoid wearing another woman's ring.

You get some perfectly reasonable rings new in the high street jewellers, for £300 or so.

What does Accessorise sell that's unique?
In any case, superstition is silly. It's what keeps people from doing things they know better than to be kept from doing.

A piece of card with one ear ring missing from the pair

Yeah.
Hearing about women that won't marry some poor guy because his ring didn't cost five grand makes me a bit pissed off.

I'd rather wear something unique.

You're worried about a second hand ring but are happy with something with an edible center?
I'd just sellotape a pushpop to your finger. Job done.

The spigot ring bush from the gearbox of a 1968 Ford Cortina 1600?
That'd just about fit your ring finger

You never know when it might come in useful.

Silly Grrr,
spigot bush isn't gearbox component.
