I could understand rings up to a couple of grand selling there. But honestly? If you were spending 20k on a ring, would the warehouse be on your places to visit?
The Wharehouse has gone middle class ... but no, not the place for an engagement ring ....
Next thing they'll be selling cheap Harleys ...
