    To play devils advocate presumably the OP is concerned that he bought a second hand item but paid brand new prices because the item wasnt listed as 2nd hand.

    I am still unclear as to how the OP really knows the item is secondhand... if the jeweler has listed the item as secondhand at the same price on the instragram feed you can be fairly sure they've priced it considering its condition as they've been overt about its status there. Its obviously also possible that if its a fairly generic/"classic" design that they have both new and secondhand versions of basically the same thing.

    I wonder if someone has told the OP or they have now simply cottoned on to what a ring described as Vintage or Antique actually is (secondhand).
