I had to have my stack cut off and made bigger when my fingers became sausages with my pregnancy, and I have never been sufficiently spendy to get them put back. They are on my middle finger now, and still turn on themselves every day, slowly wearing against each other. I doubt I'll get them done now, the kid will take them when and if she comes to visit, and she's filthy rich so she can do it, lol...
Funny thing, my engagement ring was an antique when we bought it in 1978, it cost exactly $100. I was in an antique jewelry shop about ten years ago and the jeweler valued it at around $2000. Nice profit, except I could never sell it! I remember my Mum examining it with an eagle eye, and telling me it was a 'dress ring'... And yes, I was very miffed, I think she was secretly jealous of my 6ft4 bearded Pom, who she very soon learned to adore.
Those were the days...
