I Will Love You Forever

Part of  the work some of my coworkers do is to process jewelry items that have been returned to the store to evaluate wether or not they can be refurbished and sold again as new.

(This practice of selling refurbished jewelry as new happens all the time and unlike California, Connecticut has no law making it necessary for the store to disclose the fact that the "new" item being purchased could have previously belonged to someone else for ten years before it was refurbished and sold again.  FYI)

One particularly amusing item came in the other day and a coworker shared it with me.

It was a wedding band.  

It was engraved, "I Will Love You Forever 2007."

Oops.  I guess they changed their mind.
