Yeah, that was going to be my next question. If it was less than a year ago, as it is, I can see why you wouldn't have sold it yet.
Sort of related, but only loosely, was when I was about to get engaged. A few days before I went to make my last payment on the ring, I came home one night to find a shoebox that was left by an old girlfriend of mine. Inside was a piece of jewelry that I had gotten her for a Christmas gift back when we were dating- three years prior. The very next day I took that sucker to the jeweler, and sold it to them, which then allowed me to pay off the rest of the engagement ring.
