Well, obviously the guy is her ex — I mean, who gives their girlfriend only one-quarter of a carrot? I mean, one-quarter of an onion is fine — in fact, I think that’s the present for the four-month anniversary — but one-quarter of a carrot?
1/4 carrot ring set – $450
I bought this ring for $1200 a couple years ago and needless to say things did not work out, sure you know that since I am selling the ring. Jewelry stores will not buy stones under a carrot from what i have found so figured I would try to sell it here. It is a size 7, of course it can be re-sized if needed. In great condition and hopefully will be a great deal for someone that does not have the money to pay a jewelry stores top dollar prices. Call me, Jason, if interested at xxx-xxx-xxxx (cell).
Jewelry stores will not buy stones under a carrot because if they did, they’d be buying stones underground. Or stones that have been stored under a root vegetable. And that’s just weird.
1/4 Carrot Dimond Ring OBO – $150
I have a size 7 or 8 1/4 Carrot Dimond Ring 150 OR BEST OFFER
It’s size 7 OR 8? Those are kind of different. Oooh, and it’s a dimond.
I almost feel bad for these people; I mean, selling an engagement ring on Craigslist means that something went very, very wrong in your life somewhere. I like to think that it’s the fact that they couldn’t spell carat.
I laughed out loud at the part about “they’d be buying stones underground. Or stones that have been stored under a root vegetable.” Fortunately, my co-workers already know I’m insane.
I do a lot of editing and I use up a lot of carets. I wonder if anyone on CL is selling carets? I don’t think 1/4 of one would be helpful though. It’d look like an apostrophe.
Also, I thought of you yesterday when I listened to an interview with a young man who was explaining that he liked to bicycle naked as a protest but couldn’t actually state what he was protesting (“um, that’s actually a hard question, that’s what I said when the prosecutor asked me, um, it’s hard to say, ummm [long vacuous silence], um, too much car traffic in my neighborhood?”) and I thought: “humanity is doomed!”
i can’t tell if it is sarcasm or not, but i think you all mean karat. like 24k = 24 karet gold?
i cant believe i just typo’d a correction lol. here is the proper one…

carat = karat when talking about gemstone measurement or purity of gold. (Both spellings are acceptable.)
caret = this character: ^
So, for $250, this woman (we’re assuming it’s a woman) is wanting children’s items (understandable) or a laptop? Sooooooooo, in the breakup, she gets the ring and the kids, and he gets their toys and storage devices and things like that? What a bastard.
Oh, and the thumbnail pic next to Jess’s name is pretty cute.
