Today, while shopping at American Eagle, I found the same "$1,500" wedding ring my fiancé proposed to me with, marked on sale for $10.95. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was out with my boyfriend, when he started browsing wedding rings. He found a ring, proposed to me right there in front of a crowd, and then was promptly denied a payment plan. We left without a ring. FML
Today, my boyfriend said he wanted to marry me. Since he doesn't know my ring size, he asked for me to find a ring that I liked, and he would buy it and propose. The only problem is that he won't spend more than 200 dollars on it. Oh, the generosity. FML
Today, I found out that my beautiful engagement ring is a remake of the late Princess Diana's engagement ring. I also found out my fiancé bought it from an infomercial, for $19.95. FML
Today, my wife figured out I gave her a dollar store ring for our anniversary. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend, who is buying me a ring for my birthday, is buying my best friend a ring that cost 10 times more than mine. FML
Today, I was shopping for rings with my fiancée. We spent over two hours selecting the perfect ring and diamond to match. When filling out the paperwork I discovered I left my wallet at home. She had to pay the 20% down payment for the ring. FML
Today, I went with my girlfriend to the mall. We were looking at jewellery in Zales and she came across the engagement rings. She looks at one and says, "Are you kidding me? That ring is hideous and it's the most expensive one here! Who the fuck would buy that?" Well, that would be me. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me with the prettiest, most simple ring I have ever seen. I called my sister to tell her the good news, and her response was, "I know. He had me steal the ring from Claire's." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he's prepared to commit to marriage, but only if I buy my own ring and tell everyone he surprised me with it. FML
Today, my boyfriend won a diamond engagement ring through a citywide competition. Instead of proposing to me, he's selling it. FML

AE sells rings for 1,500? I doubt this. YDI for believing he bought one at AE for 1,500.

He could have bought a ring that LOOKED like her ring, key word. Don't assume he lied when maybe he could have gotten ripped off somewhere. Maybe he even bought the same looking ring with real gold and a real diamond and the ring she saw may have been a repica or one just for show.

I'm surprised no one thought about this.

Yeah, that's the problem with FMLs, they never tell the whole story and no one considers all the possibilities. They jump to a conclusion that someone else is the bad guy of the situation.

my take is that this whole issue is not about being materialistic for wanting a 1.5k$ ring. I think OP is concerned because her fiancé told her (or answered her, if she asked) the 'actual' price of it. be it that he was sharing with her or just trying to make her happy, he lied. he lied over such a small matter, what other lies could he make in the future? anyway my personal opinion is that engagement and marriage only happens once in a life, why not make the best out of it? compromise.

1500$ is more or less double average monthly (NETT) salary in Poland. Most wedding rings used are much cheaper than that and people are still able to love each other...

It's not the price of the ring, darling. It's the love and thought behind it. I know someone who was proposed to with one of those artsy 'steampunk' rings. She loves it to death, as well as her dear fiance for being fun enough to get it for her. It was only $60. Her monthly grocery bill is higher. She doesn't care though!~
