This product can only be found in your local store unfortunately. So not the best deal for everyone. Not sure if the retail price is correct but If you can find one in the right size and it's for you - it's a steal.
There's similar rings that have also been drastically reduced in price.
### Product Description ###
The 4mm band is made from palladium - a luxury metal that will maintain its naturally white colouring throughout your long and happy marriage.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with not spending a fortune on a wedding ring. It is what it signifies that is important. Mine and my partners wedding bands are titanium - not expensive but tough as anything and will stand the test of time as I hope our marriage will.

palladium is in the same periodic group as platinum and shares the same characteristics. who gives a toss what a ring is made of, if your happy with it then great it was worth it.
if your a brainless sheep following the advertising hype of "if you love her/him you would get this ring" anyone buying a ring from a high Street jeweler is on the whole buying crap that's worth a third of its sales ticket. don't believe me, go buy one then immediately take it to an auction house and see what they value it at or worst still a pawn broker who will value that jewellery you paid a pretty penny for at its metal value as stones are not compensated for.
oh and don't mention "craftsmanship" think how many pieces had to be made for high Street stores to all have one and then think how many they have in the warehouse to accommodate for any size request they might get.
So feel free to get your gold, platinum or 16ct diamond ring at top price but don't put down a deal like this.

Because the only way to show you truly love someone is to spend loads of money on something functionally identical made from more expensive materials pumped up by marketeers to suck more money from suckers!

Palladium

Yes palladium
A fantastic precious metal, naturally hypoallergenic and stays white since it's natively white (not rhodium plated like white gold).
That said, all Argos jewellery is garbage. Their retail prices are made in Wonderland.
I'd also recommend a court over D shape for comfort.

haha agreed! A wedding ring is for life *for some* so if you have the money and can afford to do so, don't hold back on the costs. It's a lifetime investment :wink:. On the other hand though, it's not all about the money or the bling and this might be perfect for some.

it would if she saw the 'heavyweight' bit in the description!
How can there be 95% palladium? Palladium is a soft flaky metal

If you're a couple buying this together to keep wedding costs down, then maybe. But if you're thinking of purchasing this for your bride to be .... DON'T DO IT!!

Palladium 950 = 95% palladium
Palladium 500 = 50% palladium
