Silmaril Its lost, lost my precious!

I have a big problem. I have lost my one ring.

the problem is, I cant buy another, as I got it from some little family run shop in Cornwall.

another problem, I have a budget of about £40.

Does anyone know of a one ring, preferably silver, that can suit my budget? This is really hard and Google has prooved to be no help at all.

u got it in cornwall? where???

i bought an elvish love ring (silver) for £16.50 in a local shop called Rustics. it has a poem in elvish inscribed on it based on the one ring's poem (ie. one ring to bind them all, etc. i cant remember it right now)

i also saw a 9 carat gold one ring (the actual one) for £350... i dont think ill ever be able to get that one!

if u know where i can get a copy of the one ring, please let me know! i have pretty much the same budget of £40, although i can stretch to more

WE FOUND IT! WE FOUND IT MY PRECIOUSSSSS!

The PE Teacher had it, nasssssty PE teacher! She took it, theif! Hssssssssssssss!!!!!

Okay, Im alright now. One whole week without my ring has kind of gone to my head.

By the way, £350 is nothing! In my search for a new ring, I came across several for over a thousand quid!

Anyway, though the panic is over, I could still do with a new ring. Still tell me if you find one within my budget! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Are you meaning silver with gold plating? Because I know there are some that are inexpensive (that don't come on a bookmark) around on the internet.
Additionally those Elvish love rings sound cool, too bad I don't live in England, there would be no stores around where I live that would even carry anything like that.

And she gave it back? Surprising, actually. Is she secretly Tom Bombadil, or something, since she was not drawn to the ring's power?

You can get a gold ring (I think it's gold, anyway) for about $120 over here, and since one English pound is about $3 over here...

P.S. These money values are not at all certain, they're just rough estimates.
