Ten years ago I went to high school with a girl named Kathy. She moved away after our freshman year in high school. I never knew what happened to her or where she went. A little over a year ago, she found me on Friendster.com through a mutual friend. Since then, we have been traveling back and forth from Philadelphia (she lives there) and Chicago (that's where I am) to visit each other when we could. She is now interning in Chicago. She's in her last year of optometry school. She'll be in a lot of debt when she graduates, over $150K. I will marry this woman. Help me. I'm still a college student, trying to make it on my own. I live away from home and am soooo poor. I barely have enough money to buy food, let alone an engagement ring! I want to propose by the end of summer. Please help me out!!!! I'm going to sell a lot of my computer equipment, please buy from me and make my future happy!

Or... you could just paypal me some money at dyphan at gmail dot com. Thanks. :D

Heatware and eBay is under Zefram0911.
If you need an email address or phone # to call me, please PM me and I'll glady forward that info to you.

I prefer paypal (non credit card payments, only cash... the fees kill me, unless you cover the 2.9% + 30cents) or money orders. I'm willing to take checks but of course I will ship after they clear.

Shipping will be from 60194. I will ship USPS Priority Mail or UPS Ground with delivery confirmation. Insurance is optional and your choice. You will pay for shipping and/or insurance. If you want things shipped a different way, let me know and I'll do my best to accomodate you.

All prices are of course negotiable, please don't lowball me.

All sales final.

Thanks for your gift! It's amazing that a stranger would give me money because of sentiment. HardForums... best place on earth.

Bump for ya -- shoot me an e-mail at opelblitz AT gmail DOT com ok?
 
That brings up an important point.

My fiancee is kinda frugal, and didn't really care about the ring. She woulda liked diamond, but she felt it was a huge waste of money. She wanted me to get something called "asha" (http://betterthandiamond.com/) because it looked exactly like a diamond, even from up-close. To make a long story short, I actually considered it, and checked it out. It did look pretty impressive. But not fake, like zirconia or whatever it is. Although, I actually ended up getting a real diamond, cause I inherited it from a relative (But she never knew that).

So what's the point of spending nearly 10K for something that only sits on a finger, when you can better invest the money for your (and her) future? You can put the several thousands of dollars you save and buy your woman something more useful, or do what I did, and put it towards a new house. I'm not saying I'm against diamond rings, but I just can't fathom the cost it is for something so ... useless.

And it has nothing to do with the fact that you're willing to spend a lot of money on your fiancee. That should never be an issue!
 
Once you get about $300-$350 saved up, let me know. I got a guy that will hook it up! I just got my fiance a 3/8 Carrot engagement ring for $300. Its just shy of a 1/2 carrot. Its a really nice ring.

Let me know.
 
TechnoButt said:
The real question is: How can you think about that when you're using the engagement ring as an excuse to get people to buy your stuff? Especially when you're also using a hand-me-down ring, too. That's pretty lame. Surely you're going to return the donation mentioned in the thread above since you don't have to buy the ring, right? Somehow, I bet not.
:shakes head:

notice the person that said they inheirited(SP?) the ring was not the OP

then speak....

bump for a lucky guy!
 
1. Congratulations. You look like you'll make a good couple :)



Or... you could just paypal me some money at dyphan at gmail dot com. Thanks.


2. You got 2 arms 2 legs and a brain. Go get a second job and make it work. There are alot of people out there working there asses off under much more adverse conditions than you and they would never accept a "handout" from a stranger.

If you cant get it on your own you need to bite the bullet and live within your bounds. If you dont like those bounds....then expand them with your own sweat and tears, NOT on the back of others.


And again...congratulations.

= MY 2 cents

Aloha. & Bump!
 
EDIT: my bad, I read the wrong name into the 'I'm too cheap to buy my girl a ring' post and thought it was the OP.
 
TechnoButt said:
The EXTREMELY lame thing he did was to respond to my sincere advice, trashing my decision to spend generously on my fiance. And then to reveal he was *given* a ring that he's using. Apparently spending money on a ring is enough of an excuse to come in here begging people to buy his overpriced goods and even to beg them to send him paypal to help him buy a ring.

He never said he was given a ring...that was Blitzrommel. Please read the thread BEFORE you post, thanks.

good luck man ...i think techno butt is a real ....butt and is just jealous have fun and good luck again
 
To Techno Butt... To be honest, I didn't read most of your posts. They're long winded and based on false information. Information that any semi-intelligent person (a 4th grader) could have gotten from carefully reading each post and seeing who wrote these posts. It should be obvious now that you've somehow confused the names of the posters and mistakenly attributed actions to me that I did not write or do. Simply put, you're an idiot. I don't really care much for your opinion based on what I've seen from you. Don't crap in my thread.

I'm a college student on break from school. I live on my own without assistance from my folks. I've been working two jobs for nearly the last five years. Don't tell me I don't know what hard work is. I've worked at a church with the most insane people, I've telemarketed, I've worked at a gym cleaning toilets. I've been a temp, worked at CompUSSR and probably a billion other odd jobs to earn money to survive. There have been times when I didn't even know where food or gas was coming from. It's crappy when you see your bank account has less than a dollar.

Sure I do have some nice things. These were the days when I lived with my folks. When money was more available and I could mooch off my parents like most kids. Maybe I shoulda have spent my money wiser... but who the hell knows they're going to get married in 4 or 5 years? So now I'm poor and I'm getting things together.

To be honest, this isn't a sob story to get people to give me money. I didn't expect anyone to give me any money at all and if the ONE person that did give me something for nothing ... if he wants it back I'll gladly give it back. I would have thought the smiley after that sentence about giving me money through paypal would be seen as a joke. Apparently some had sympathy and gave me money... and then others like you, the joke was far over your head.

I'm not trying to fraud anyone here. Just here to sell my crap and if you want to give me BS about it... PM me. I'll likely ignore you from now, but don't crap in here and think you're being so logical, intelligent, and high moraled. You sir.... are an idiot.

Lets get back to the merchandise.
