@@toffiet3347 It depends on what metal/stone/design you choose. Like two rings could have the exact same look but a ring made with white gold is gonna be more expensive than a ring made with sterling silver. From what I’ve seen, they can cost anywhere from $250 to around $4,000. Obviously they can cost less or more, but generally they fall anywhere within this range.
I cant imagine getting one from highschool unless you were from like a prestigious school. Funny enough school rings are a really good body identification if you're murderd
Its 330 now. The dude at my high-school today trying to sell it seemed super shady not saying the price, just saying you cpuld make up to 12 payments for as low as 40 dollars. It seemed so scummy knowing a good majority of teens in that audience don't have a sense of money yet. He had a QR code on the site, and it was exactly in my 200-400 range I was thinking of.
I got a class ring because my father didn’t get a class ring and he severely regretted it. That is quite possibly the only time I’ve benefited off something that my father didn’t get. Everything else has been emotional trauma.
@@kayleigharnoldif you have any interested I would suggest going online and looking around. That was what I did and was able to get a nicer ring for cheaper than the company that had a contract with my school.
I think class rings are so special for some people. Here’s why: My mom didn’t get a hs class ring bc yk she didn’t finish hs. So later on she went and got her GED (equivalent of a hs diploma) and then started college. By this time she was basically a single mom w two kids (my older siblings) and she put herself through college. When it came time to order her college class ring, she decided to get one bc it symbolized her doing something hardly anyone did in her family. She actually j told me the story of it yesterday and said that it took her a full year to pay it off bc she had two kids three jobs. It really j makes me appreciate my mom so much more bc she did so much for my older siblings and still got her education
I said the same thing in my comment. My dad never graduated high school. So when I was a senior he was so excited to watch me walk that he bought the ring. He keeps it with my diploma, cap and gown, every report card, cords, rewards and graduation pictures. The ring also came in a cute miniature cap.
I really didn't care to get a class ring but my mom insisted, saying I'd appreciate it one day. I'm 35 and still waiting for the feelings of appreciation to begin haha
When I was a senior in high school, my mom took me to a jewelry store and let me pick out a ring to keep as my “class ring.” It was almost the same price as the rings from school and I still wear it all the time.
I did the same thing and am so happy I did. I wasn’t a fan of the traditional class rings and the ones I got are timeless and go with everything even 15+ years later!
They wanted $430 for my class ring. I told the lady that was selling them that the price was ridiculous and she had the nerve to say “if you got a job you could probably afford it”. Obviously, I told her to suck it.
I wore a fake engagement ring when I bartended. Definitely cut down on how often guys hit on me, but the real sleazy ones still tried. Idk what people don't understand about customer service employees. It's part of our job to be nice to people, doesn't mean we like you or want any "attention " lol you know?
My senior year, a lady from the office came to my computer class to hand out flyers and explain some of the "cool stuff" we could get to commemorate our last year of high school. There were graduation jackets, class rings, personalized tassels for graduation caps, badges, pins, bracelets- all that good stuff. Our cass rings were 95 dollars. Like three people busted out laughing when she said that and some dude said "this dump isn't worth that", which only made people laugh MORE, and the lady got upset 😭 she left shortly after. Our teacher didn't say shit against us either despite how rude we were bc he knew we were right. Told us to save our money when the lady left
Bro they advertised them for us and they were all AT LEAST 300$, and they could easily become more if you wanted something other than a basic design and a basic metal. God forbid you want something that looks half decent; that's 400$+.
@@stevensvi006 EXACTLY they posted them big and proud throughout all the hallways. i dont want to pay damn near half a grand for a ring i’ll probably lose
Wore mine through out college and still might pop it on now and again. It’s pretty, and also was really customized because we didn’t go through the school. Ordered mine online and had so many more options. Was the only one who got the school logo imprinted under the stone. Was a nicer metal and cheaper to boot.
Dam why I didn't think of that. I was actually really happy about graduating in general and opted to buy it, even if it wasn't a valuable resale. Nowadays it serves the same purpose as my dog tags, ID upon death.
The people we ordered from were through the school and everyone could still customize which ring they wanted, which obviously I did, I don't understand why all junior ring companies don't do this instead of having a limited style of rings
I didn’t order one when I graduated, instead my grandparents surprised me with one at my open house. Much more subtle in size and it’s cute enough to wear regularly
In 2018 my senior classmates and I clapped the ring person off the stage at the assembly. We kept clapping after their introduction until they left the stage. They didn't get a penny out of any of us 😂😂😂😂
im so glad that i didnt order a class ring, i had a letterman jacket but that was given to me for free by my band director my first year and then my letter patch and pins were given to me the following years. every other club/organization had to buy their jackets and patches so they usually got it senior year but my director wanted us to have our jackets for as long as possible and i made so many memories with mine :) especially late night bus rides home when it would become my pillow lol
Hol up so yall just got Letterman's for free, like clean empty ones? That's sorta cool an empty jacket to wear out. I never practiced my trumpet, probably why I never got a top score for my solos. 😖 I like to think if I applied myself I could have been better; if I could have my senior year range as a freshman it would have been lit!
Our band also gave us ours a year early 😆 so I got to enjoy it all of junior and senior year. It's a really great winter jacket I can wear around the house sometimes 😊
Depends where you live. I was class of 2008 only 4 people have them. My old high school stopped 2 years after my class. My kid is testing out so no regular High school for him. Most people rather spend on college or a car.
idk i got my ring last year and it's in a style closer to an engagement ring than anything. it's white gold, has accent crystals, my birthstone and my school + class in tiny letters. i wear it daily
My mom graduated college in the 90s and she had a high-quality gold class ring with a black onyx. When my brother graduated, she wanted to see if she could sell it back to the company since it was the same one still to pay for his ring (he had picked out one that was pretty expensive) and they said they would owe her way too much money to do that. 🤣
Those class rings start to mean a thing when you hit 30s and 40s, and by the time you're going past your 40s, they are like gold. Little memories you can look back on and know they really happened, when you yourself are so far away from them.
I'm 44 and lol stupid then and still stupid. Kids spend money on stupid shit and the school gets a kickback. I was in school in the 90s and some of the rings were $300! For a piece of crap worth $30.
I have my great-grandfather’s class ring, and it’s always been too small to wear lol. But it’s definitely a very cool piece for me to own, especially as someone who loves vintage and antiques and is quite sentimental 😊
I still have my class ring 22 years later and still wear it too. I was proud I accomplished high school and it reminds me of all the great memories I had made in those four years.
A ring that you get your sophomore year you get to pick the gem the color like of the ring it has your activities you did in high school and the graduation year and your name and it’s special because you can wear it for your senior year or junior year
I actually still wear my class ring sometimes because I picked out one that wasn’t giant and ugly lol it just looks like a nice ring, and has my favorite color stone too
I’m so glad my great grandma got one and kept it. When my grandma passed I was gifted my great grandmothers class ring. I only met her once, and I was a baby, so it’s so special to hold something from her. I’ve heard she was an incredible woman ❤️
I’m not an expert I’m not even in high school yet but, In the United States, a class ring is a ring worn by students and alumni to commemorate their final academic year and/or graduation, mostly for a high school, college, or university.
I just ordered my class ring, it's very pretty and looks nothing like hers. The styles have really changed for women's class rings to where mine was thought to be an engagement ring. I have my birthstone in it and my class name around it. Very pretty, anyways. Class rings are what you order to wear for graduation like you order your cap and gown in the same place (you don't HAVE to order a class ring.)
Overpriced customized graduation rings lol, they’re still a thing as far as I’m aware. I graduated in 2020 and the Josten’s scammers came by to promote their $400 graduation rings
my mom told me right away when she saw the whole paper thing in my hand that i wasn’t getting one. didn’t even ask or have time to say anything about it 💀
We got our class rings sophomore year, which I think gave us a lot more use out of it. I wore it almost every day of high school, as did my friends, and our school had us customize them with things that represented "us" at the time. A lot of us even got our signatures engraved on the inside of the band, which we thought was super neat at the time. I still have mine and am glad I have it to look back on, but it's definitely only worth something in sentimental value 😅
I still wear my class ring here and there. I got one of the smaller natural looking ones with a diamond since its my birth stone. I feel like the only ones that were a waste of time were the big flashy bulky ones because they cost so much and again were really flashy
Dude, school rings are so expensive now. My mom ring was $105 with a real natural gemstone and is 24KP gold (P means pure, exactly 24K gold; these tend to be very expensive if its KP). My sister graduated in 2013 her ring was $215 with a lab created gemstone and it's sterling silver lolololololol Now my sister is graduating college and they want over 1k for a 14K gold ring. And they had gold vermil (not real solid gold but a "cheaper" alternative to solid gold) and it was listed as $700...
I just got my hs ring for 2024. I chose to get a simplistic $300 ring with my favorite color of gem. I did this so it won’t look like a “class” ring from afar but still look cute.
I really wanted one but I hated all the styles (class of 04) and I wound up telling my mom "I wish I could have one that just looked like yours" (hers was from 79 I think) She contacted the class ring company and they resized her old ring for free and she gave it to me for Christmas. I cried lol.
I thought those rings were so ugly when my brother got his in 2009. I graduated in 2016, but they weren’t really popular for my generation. Those things are ugly.
I still have mine and wear it to this day. Maybe because it's smaller and isn't one of those giant monstrosities. 😂 I've gotten so used to it, it just became part of my regular lineup.🤷♀️
My dad gave me his class ring after it’s been sitting in his closet for over 22 years. I don’t wear it often but I only wear it when it matches my outfit.
I still have mine! Its a silver double band with a purple heart stone and on one band it says Ashelyn Rose and on the other band it says class 2011. I love it!
I feel this. I got one more so bc it was like "everybody" got one... and my mom got it for me. It's honestly my favorite ring still even tho I never wore it haha.
I love mine! It has my birth stone, but its more like an actual ring than one of those types of class rings. It was my favorite choice i found so glad i got one 🙏
i added mine to my sun necklace bc i like the way it clinks against the sun pendant. personally i still don't think it was worth the money but my mom insisted. it's pink tho so that's nice
My school had the option to have a necklace, shirt, or whatever else, it didn't have to be a ring. I chose a necklace because I knew I would wear that much more often than some bulky ring, and I still have it to this day
Flashback to when my husband (then my boyfriend, obviously) got his class ring and gave it to me the same day. I wore it proudly on a chain for one day until he called me and said "Yeah... I'm really sorry, but my mom said I can't give away my class ring. Can I have it back?" 😂 Now it's in my nightstand drawer, so I guess I got it in the end. Lol.
A class ring is when they sell it to senior a.k.a (12 grade) when they are about to graduate, for me I instead had gotten the necklace in case if my finger changes in ring size 😅
I was fortunate enough to have parents that were willing to buy me an actual ring instead of the usual class ring, I got it in the right colors but I figured I’d wear it a lot longer than I’d ever wear the actual class ring
It was always so ugly. Bought one for 8th grade and then I came to my senses and didn’t buy one for high school. And then I came to my sense and didn’t buy a yearbook in college
I have a hs ring and I’ll occasionally slip it on. I love mine so much. It has my birth stone, my initials, the year I graduated and the name of the school I graduated from. It’s gorgeous
Rings are a big thing at the University I attended, so I waited and got one then. It sounds weird, but I was glad we couldn’t afford the High School one. I would have had to get the base model and something I didn’t want.

I just ordered my class ring, it's very pretty and looks nothing like hers. The styles have really changed for women's class rings to where mine was thought to be an engagement ring. I have my birthstone in it and my class name around it. Very pretty, anyways.
Class rings are what you order to wear for graduation like you order your cap and gown in the same place (you don't HAVE to order a class ring.)
Its a ring that you buy in high school so you remember high school and you can design it yourself. My parents work for jostens so they sell them!
Overpriced customized graduation rings lol, they’re still a thing as far as I’m aware. I graduated in 2020 and the Josten’s scammers came by to promote their $400 graduation rings
my mom told me right away when she saw the whole paper thing in my hand that i wasn’t getting one. didn’t even ask or have time to say anything about it 💀
We got our class rings sophomore year, which I think gave us a lot more use out of it. I wore it almost every day of high school, as did my friends, and our school had us customize them with things that represented "us" at the time. A lot of us even got our signatures engraved on the inside of the band, which we thought was super neat at the time. I still have mine and am glad I have it to look back on, but it's definitely only worth something in sentimental value 😅
I still wear my class ring here and there. I got one of the smaller natural looking ones with a diamond since its my birth stone. I feel like the only ones that were a waste of time were the big flashy bulky ones because they cost so much and again were really flashy
That heart tan, dear godddd
I LOVE my class ring, I picked a really tiny style but tbf i graduated 12 years after 07 :x...
i’m graduating this year and my mom INSISTS I need a class ring when I know full well I’m never gonna wear it 😂
What's a class ring, I'm from England never heard of them ?
@@fee3222it’s a ring that says like “class of 2023” and then your high school. it’s pretty pointless
@@fee3222 it for looks, honestly it's a waste of money, just spend that money on the yearbook if you want something that will last
God this bring memories of ✨MOOD RINGS✨
Dude, school rings are so expensive now. My mom ring was $105 with a real natural gemstone and is 24KP gold (P means pure, exactly 24K gold; these tend to be very expensive if its KP). My sister graduated in 2013 her ring was $215 with a lab created gemstone and it's sterling silver lolololololol
Now my sister is graduating college and they want over 1k for a 14K gold ring. And they had gold vermil (not real solid gold but a "cheaper" alternative to solid gold) and it was listed as $700...
I just got my hs ring for 2024. I chose to get a simplistic $300 ring with my favorite color of gem. I did this so it won’t look like a “class” ring from afar but still look cute.
Isn't anyone going to talk about the shape of the purse? 💀
I'm a young Gen Z can someone explain what a class ring is?
It’s a ring that’s says your name and your activities you did in high school also has your class year you graduated from high school

I really wanted one but I hated all the styles (class of 04) and I wound up telling my mom "I wish I could have one that just looked like yours" (hers was from 79 I think)
She contacted the class ring company and they resized her old ring for free and she gave it to me for Christmas.
I cried lol.
I graduated in 2008. My class ring never fit exactly right for me. It was too big. 😢
I am class of 2008 and only 4 people had them.
I thought those rings were so ugly when my brother got his in 2009. I graduated in 2016, but they weren’t really popular for my generation. Those things are ugly.
I still have mine and wear it to this day. Maybe because it's smaller and isn't one of those giant monstrosities. 😂 I've gotten so used to it, it just became part of my regular lineup.🤷♀️
I wear my mom’s class ring everyday, and it’s the most commented on piece I wear. To be clear, all are heirloom, and some antique.
Good thing I won't be buying a ring when I hit my senior year (2007 kid / Class of 2025 here)
I waited & got a college class ring! $750 for 10 carat gold, 10 yrs ago. I actually wear it almost every day
My dad gave me his class ring after it’s been sitting in his closet for over 22 years. I don’t wear it often but I only wear it when it matches my outfit.
No my mom really came up to me the other and said “Look I found my class ring!” And it looked just like that-
I still have mine! Its a silver double band with a purple heart stone and on one band it says Ashelyn Rose and on the other band it says class 2011. I love it!
I feel this. I got one more so bc it was like "everybody" got one... and my mom got it for me. It's honestly my favorite ring still even tho I never wore it haha.
I love mine! It has my birth stone, but its more like an actual ring than one of those types of class rings. It was my favorite choice i found so glad i got one 🙏
I got my class ring done in a way that it doesn’t look like a class ring 😊. I still wear it and I graduated in 2010.
i added mine to my sun necklace bc i like the way it clinks against the sun pendant. personally i still don't think it was worth the money but my mom insisted. it's pink tho so that's nice
i loved mine- i worse it daily (as im like a 4-5 size ring and those sizes never exist) and i was so heartbroken when my mom sold mine-
Still wear mine and I’ve been out of high school since ‘09
I begged my mom for it; I wear (almost) every time I go out.
Hopefully it'll stay that way for, at least, until graduation.
Class rings are very special to me because it is a memory of my school that I made so many memories with my friends there
My school had the option to have a necklace, shirt, or whatever else, it didn't have to be a ring. I chose a necklace because I knew I would wear that much more often than some bulky ring, and I still have it to this day
Samr
Can’t understand, didn’t peak in high school.
Flashback to when my husband (then my boyfriend, obviously) got his class ring and gave it to me the same day. I wore it proudly on a chain for one day until he called me and said "Yeah... I'm really sorry, but my mom said I can't give away my class ring. Can I have it back?" 😂 Now it's in my nightstand drawer, so I guess I got it in the end. Lol.
For context. She got him a really expensive one. It was $600. If I was his mom I'd be telling him to ask for it back too 😅
what s a class ring
That's why I made mine look pretty. 😅
She is so funny. Protect her at all costs
they can actually still sell for 100-200 i think.
I didn’t see the point in a class ring Cus I didn’t wear rings.
Americans please explain what a class ring is cause I’m mad confused over here 😅
A class ring is when they sell it to senior a.k.a (12 grade) when they are about to graduate, for me I instead had gotten the necklace in case if my finger changes in ring size 😅
This is cute they should continue it! Haven't seen this
Anyone wanna talk about how there is a heart tan on her waist?
Are you sisters with Erin miller the other 19-2000 ticktocker
😅😅
I never got one 😭😭 I graduated in 2009
I was fortunate enough to have parents that were willing to buy me an actual ring instead of the usual class ring, I got it in the right colors but I figured I’d wear it a lot longer than I’d ever wear the actual class ring
I’m 15 so I probably wasn’t born
the struggle to zip up the bag😭😭
I wore it from 2013-2015 but I worked in food and we can’t wear rings so I slowly stopped wearing them
I never got one and yes I did graduate from high school back in 2006
It was always so ugly. Bought one for 8th grade and then I came to my senses and didn’t buy one for high school. And then I came to my sense and didn’t buy a yearbook in college
My ex lost/sold my class ring years ago and I’m still bitter about it. I keep hoping it pops up as a found ring somewhere but never does lol
I didn’t get one because I didn’t think they were pretty 🤷🏼♀️
I literally have no idea what a high school ring is lmao.
Yep
I remember thinking I really wanted one...14 years later and I'm so happy my mom said no to that foolishness at the time 😂😂
I have a hs ring and I’ll occasionally slip it on. I love mine so much. It has my birth stone, my initials, the year I graduated and the name of the school I graduated from. It’s gorgeous
Rings are a big thing at the University I attended, so I waited and got one then. It sounds weird, but I was glad we couldn’t afford the High School one. I would have had to get the base model and something I didn’t want.
I'm so glad I was homeschooled and didn't have waivers for every little thing the school wanted you to buy or be involved in.
