Time is running out on this, pinheads! I hope you have gotten your orders in! :)

Remember, only ONE per household!

It comes with a genuine certificate of authenticity!

:lol:
 
Wow, what a great benefit, that hinged velveteen box is a real improvement over the hinged boxes I got for all my other jewelry that weren't labeled as "velveteen"...
 
I heard that if you really love the hinged velveteen box it becomes a real velveteen box and will be spared if you come down with scarlet fever and all of your worldly possessions are burned in a bonfire.

If the guy with the heavy British accent said it, this must be true!

The "guy with the heavy British accent" is English and his accent is known as received pronunciation, nobody really speaks that way apart from the aristocracy, what's left of them, and the Queen. I assume they used him to make the cheap tat they are flogging to gullible Americans more acceptable. Have you see the rehearsals for the wedding yet?

I figured they used him because when you hear that 'received pronunciation' as you called it, he sounds so 'official' ....as if, we need not question the authenticity of the heirloom ring... but, they will send you the certificate anyway! I just wonder.... you know there HAS to be hundreds (if not thousands) of gullible Americans ordering this thing... someone made a killing... well, the "British Historical Society" made a killing... LOL

I have not seen the rehearsals.. not up to speed on the Royal Wedding... not really my cup of tea, as it were. I just thought this commercial was a hoot, it really takes the cake, and illustrates just how great American capitalism is!

It's a British ad for T-Mobile

So, Dixie, are you holding out for the ring's birth certificate, then? :cof1:

No, the certificate of authenticity pretty much certifies it's a fake ring, I don't need an actual birth certificate. Now, if the Royal Heirloom Ring wanted to run for President of the United States? Different story! Then, we would need to confirm the fake ring was constitutionally eligible, and yes, I would need to see a birth certificate to confirm it was born in the US, pursuant to constitutional requirement. I hope that answered your question sufficiently.

Froggy told us a while ago that her hubby got her a ring similar to Kate's. I personally think the ring is way too gaudy. It looks like a Christmas ornament.
