He also told them if they were using that money to buy something else in the store he'd give them in-store credit of one and a half times the value to put toward the new piece.  They make all sorts of total custom rings and stuff, so they often times will melt down an old ring of someone's and turn it into the new one... pretty neat process.
Anywho, hope that info helps a little... pm me if I can help any more
And I totally agree with crappyasian I think it was... Zales and Jared's and all those others suck ass.  Most of it is total crap.  But, to each his own.  My father in-law has made rings for Elton John and all sorts of people...neat stuff.
