I agree with buying what you can reasonably afford.
Although, in my case, my fiance and I were shopping at an antiques store when she saw a ring she absolutely fell in love with. An antique setting of diamond and blue topaz, silver with an art nouveau style setting.
I went back the following week and purchased it.
About 4 months later she came home pouting. She had stopped in at the antique store just to look at her ring and some bastard had bought it.
I'm pretty sure bastard was what she called me when I proposed 3 weeks later.
