A Nigerian man, @ola__liam, has taken to social media to express his frustration after spending over ₦500,000 on an engagement ring from Boz Jewelry that failed to meet his expectations.
In his post, he shared his disappointment after attempting to resell the ring, only to find that it had no significant second-hand value. He stated that even a goldsmith refused to accept it, questioning its authenticity.
Many social media users reacted to his experience, with some explaining that moissanite, a common diamond alternative, generally holds little to no resale value. Others advised him to verify the ring’s composition, noting that jewelers often devalue items when customers attempt to resell them.
Despite the explanations, @ola__liam maintained that he had expected better quality for the price he paid. Frustrated, he demanded a replacement or refund from Boz Jewelry, sparking further discussions about the importance of verifying jewelry purchases before making costly commitments.
His experience has served as a warning to others looking to invest in engagement rings, emphasizing the need for due diligence before making expensive purchases.
