Hey guys,help a brother out.... I'm shopping for an engagement ring? Is there any such thing as a good balance of quality and price? Wapi huko niende sahii?

I saw the rings at Nagin pattni. Am not a very good judge when it comes to jewellery,so nilisema nitarudi baadaye.

Gurus,nipeni maoni!

engagement ring?????are you white? or you have been watching those never ending programs on ntv/ktn et all??

listen brother......make her have babies.......hiyo ndio african engagement........then tell us when is harusi........those other things achia tv yako!!

If you have money that you expect to start using in five years,it now belongs in stocks.
When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

ha ha Kingfisher I agree - esp since in 'that alien western world' they mostly believe that an engagement ring should be MORE expensive than the wedding ring and if I am not wrong,it should be worth abt 5-10% of the value of your car if you have one - so if you are rolling in an Kshs 1.4m Xtrail,start planning to fork out 70-140k - otherwise just tell her you love her,ask her to marry you - invite SK to the negotiations (we will be able to advise on EPS,PBIT,etc and ensure very reasonable terms) and save the cash for setting up your matrimonial home - smile



The problem with equality is that we desire that it be with those that have more than us rather that those that have less

Weka email I send you a pict of one and we agree on a price.
My pal (I was his best man) had bought a ring from Nagin (hope that's the name)
but his sister bought him another ring from SA that he preferred meaning he's been stuck with this one which I long forgot that I was supposed to get a buyer.... great ring with the receipt and certificate of authenticity. You can also get it tested by Nagin using some machine I hear they have...

no matter what you buy you will feel conned. If you dont feel conned I doubt she will like the ring (diamond too small). Us boys just dont understand diamonds (unless we are selling them).

Its a waste of money but it will make her happy (as her friends will know how MUCH in shilling terms) you love her ...

but stones STATO looked bigger than the nairobi lot for the same prices,so I guess SA is a good idea too if u know someone flying in ...

@Anasazi,

Build on your own foundation.Invest in your relationship in all ways.BTW engagement is not a western concept,it has always been there in almost all communities only done differently. Shop around for a diamond ring......

by the way,there is this thing affectionately called 'american diamond' in NAI. U can get far bigger stones and no one can tell the difference .. until your sweetie stands next to someone with the real thing. then she will start scrubbing hers waiting for it to shine like Njoki's ... poor u that night.
