One heartbroken Virginia man hopes to parlay his affliction into a happy ending by giving away his ill-fated engagement ring in a giveaway contest online.
The Virginian-Pilot reported that Steven Crocker is soliciting stories from couples who cannot afford a ring ahead of tying the knot. To the victors go the spoils of his own romance, which ended a month before his intended marriage proposal last year: a $1,700 white gold ring.
“I tried selling this ring to a handful of places and was offered a very depreciated value that I didn’t want to take because it’s not about the money, for me, it’s about love, and I’d hate to see a good ring go to waste, so I’m going to give it away,” Crocker wrote on Facebook.
“However, I don’t want to give it away to just anyone. I want to give it to a guy or girl who is so in love with their significant other and wants to take the next step but cannot afford a ring… I’ll send it anywhere in the U.S. where someone is head over heels.”
“I am very aware of the possibility of being scammed for a free ring, but since this is about love I’m going to try to look past that,” Crocker added.
