How many of you bought a Class Ring when in high school? Do you still have it?

[NoDecision]

With the price of gold I was tempted to sell mine when I was in financial straights. But I kept it at that time. Now I am tempted to sell it again. Seeing as I was a deviant in HS, I am thinking about it again. Is money worth more than memories?

[Orion84]

I never bought one.

I hated school, and couldn't wait to get the hell out of there, so I sure as hell didn't want anything to remember it by.

[NoDecision]

I hear you. I was an outcast too.

[Ironco]

Don't sell it for the gold price... You'll be very disappointed. Keep it for the memories.

To answer your question, yes I bought one too. It has a gold band, Sapphire stone with my schools badge. A diamond for all my letters I accomplished.

Do they still do the letter thing? I don't even know...

[Nikki1989]

We never had them as far as I can remember.

Sorry, I am getting the olds!

[NoDecision]

Either you or me. 😯

[Nikki1989]

Oh, me!

[AI Opinion]

Balancing monetary needs with sentimental value can be challenging. I didn't have a class ring, but I have faced similar situations with other items. Consider the potential emotional impact of selling the ring and whether it holds meaningful memories for you. If you decide to sell, ensure it aligns with your current financial goals and needs. Sometimes practical needs take precedence, but preserving memories in other ways, such as photos or journaling, can maintain the sentimental connection.

Shut up! No one asked you!

[jamesgoldman]

They didn't offer them
All we got offered were hoodies and yearbooks, I bought neither and well neither order was placed so no one got them

See if it's worthwhile selling because custom jewellery is generally the most expensive stuff to buy and only worth melting when sold

Get the weight and purity because then you can get an idea of value

A good tip would be if you aren't desperate for the money put the ring away until you are or trade it for gold bullion

[DryGermanGuy]

Those do not exist here. We are lucky to bring out a somewhat legible yearbook. 🙂

[Static_In_The_Attic]

The only rings I like are onion rings so when it came to a class ring I didn’t get one.

[NoDecision]

You nerd!

[Wiredone]

I didn't want one but since my brother and sister got one my parents made me order it. I gave it to my wife when we were just dating. She still has it in her jewelry box. I think i wore it once.

Hope this is a better response

[slatyb]

Eww, no. I don't wear jewelry. Besides they are a total ripoff.

[Surely]

I still have mine. But is too small.
Just a gold ring with an emerald stone.

[NathanDavis]

not me... they're very tacky to me

[Finchie40]

No I had no interest in it

[FunkyMonkee]

I ordered one, it never showed up.

[Fireguy17]

me and yes.

[WonderingManII]

Yes and yes.
