Featured QVC Ring

I cleared an apartment of a deceased blind guy last week.

He was addicted to mail order and shopping channels.
His apartment was stuffed with unopened mail order items dating back to 2001

9 unopened DVD recorders, 5 DAB radios, toys, christmas items, computers, laptops, phones, CD's, DVD's and jewellry, you name it, he had it, all unopened.

I found this 9ct gold ring, boxed in the bedroom.






QVC's marketing for the gullible.

Enhance any outfit with the stunning simplicity of this gorgeous 9 carat gold ring set with a line of five sparkling diamond stones. Elegantly understated yet eye-catching, this versatile design will suit any occasion and would make a breathtaking gift for a loved one.

• Round brilliant-cut white diamonds: 5 x (3.3mm)
• 9 carat gold
• Rhodium plated
• Diamond colour: H
• Diamond clarity: I1 / I2
• Total diamond weight: 0.75 carat

All measurements are approximate.


It weighs 2 grams in total, so assuming half the weight of it is gold
1 gram @ 9ct = £22.59 (US $28.29)
A bit of Rhodium, some solder and the diamonds 1 gram was the other half.

He paid £1500 ($1878)

QVC robbing the blind (pardon the pun ) me thinks.
