$1000 for my 1ct rose gold white sapphire ring, about $200 for hubby's ring from Etsy. Funny thing is just about every year after that, we've bought cool Etsy rings and enjoy them more than our initial ones. Etsy rings for the win 😊

About $2000
My wife's engagement ring was a simple opal design that cost like 40 or 50 bucks on Amazon.
~$200 for the actual wedding rings, ordered off Etsy.
3D printed, so a few cents. And an $8 fancy one.
We are fortunate enough to be able to afford more, and since my wife is a physicist we will eventually design our own setting for a manufactured stone because we like to do these types of things. But realistically it isn't that important to us as it's been a number of years now.
I'm curious though, why do you ask?
It was around $500 in the mid-90's. The stone was a high quality sapphire, which made up nearly all of the price.
I don't think I have ever bought a diamond.
