The photo truly does not do the ring justice.  If you're not sure you want to buy it, or even slightly think you like it, then buy it.  I was expecting junk for 14 bucks.

First, it comes in a nice gift box, and the ring in a soft bag inside. It is much more polished looking, and the stone is just big enough to look real. It's stainless steel, but looks like solid copper, with an interesting strip of cable on the top half.  A nice solid ring, and perfect for men that don't tend to wear rings often.

I actually have no idea why I bought it.  But I cannot stop going on about it.  If I were you, I would find out all the ring sizes of the males in your life, and get them all the same ring for the holidays.  You are all set with the box, and they will never know how much you paid. Make little boys feel like it's expensive, and they will learn responsibility and care without the risk of losing much money if they don't!
