    I have a Keith Richards skull ring..........NOT the junk you see on fleabay...........
    this was custom made for my finger but i screwed up and it was too big-OOPS-so i bought another one-
    it comes in the box from courts and harcourt in London-I paid about $650 for the ring and now the price has gone down to about $550
    any opinions on whether i should get rid of this or keep it and let it go higher?
    its a THREE OZ .925 ring stamped with the number and the maker...........
    I could use the money but this is a ring not many people see except in pictures

    That's a really nice looking ring (even though it sounds a bit naff)

    I wouldn't sell it for less than it is worth just to get some ready cash. I wouldn't sell it for less than the other shop is selling it for either as I doubt there are that many around and skulls are always popular.

    THAT IS THE RING-ON HIS RIGHT HAND-EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE-
    Youre right-there are not many around-you have to be VERY specific in your order as to size and they are PERFECT on filling that order. The one for sale is a size 9. Still have the box and all the paperwork.
    I have NEVER seen one on Ebay or any other site except Courts and Hackett. The first ring was made in 1977 as a birthday present and it was the only one in the world until recently when they saw they could make some money-and they dont make cheap copies-its the SAME ring-

    Thanks dude... but she'll be right... I still know plenty of people here in Oz still dealing with Pay-up-Pal that can help me out. Thanks very much for the offer but.

    Even though I'm 5' 8" I've got large hands (and feet :/ ) I've got a Z+2 ringfinger size (that's like size 14 US) and wide rings need to be oversized as well...so I should be able to get more silver outta 'em ;)
