Default Update on designer plat ring found last month...RETURNED!



As i said in a previous post, I called the designer to see if it was possable to find the owner. They said no, so I asked about sizing the ring for myself. They said I would have to send it to them through a local jewler that they deal with.
Well last thursday I took the ring in to the jewler.
This Friday I got a call from the jewler here in chicago. Telling me that between the time I called the designer and sent the ring in the designer figured out who's ring it was. Turns out it was the designers son's ring who is going to school here in Chicago, The ring was a present from the designer to his son for recieving his Bachelor degree.
The designer deciced since I tried to return the ring and then wanted to size it for myself, as a token of his appreciation he will make me a ring Identical to the one I found and returned, Platinum and diamonds. Retail 10.500.00
Doing the right thing may not be easy and not allways profitable but sometimes paybacks are nice!!
Don't you love a happy ending.
I'll post a pic of the ring when he presents it to me. HH Chicago Ron

Doing the right thing is it's own reward but that ring makes a nice consolation prize.
