    My fiancée doesn't wear jewellery. He wants a wedding ring but doesn't know how much he'll wear it cuz he thinks he might find it uncomfortable. I'm fine with that too. I don't want to spend a fortune on a ring for him if he doesn't end up wearing it much.
    I can't seem to find a cheap one tho. Cheapest Ive found so far is 450 euro.
    I was hoping to get one for around 200. Can anyone tell me where I might get something more reasonable. We're in cork

    Try H Samuel on Patrick St or good old eBay! They're usually very reasonable.

    Maybe you could try tungsten or palladium if you're not too hung up on gold. That shouldn't cost much either.

    I got mine on-line. I can't remember what it cost (it was less than €200 though) but what I will say is to avoid the flat profile type of ring and get a curved edge ring as I find it very uncomfortable to wear and as a result hardly ever wear it.

    What about Argos? A couple of people posted recently saying that they had argos rings and loved them.

    I'm getting my fiance an Argos ring for €40, he will only wear it for the day and probably one or two other occasions so no point forking out.

    I bought a titanium ring from Michael Perry in the Powerscourt Center for less then €200. I dont wear jewlery of any knid not even a watch but I found that you get used to the wedding ring withing a few hours.
