News Of Things That Keep You Up At Night
|
|
|
|
Hi sir - Our newsletters are becoming as rare as our favorite ring styles! We have been saving up and this newsletter is a doozy: new Auction items, rings on sale, free leather pouches, better search, incoming inventory, and three new Collectors ring styles! Whew - be sure to read all the way to the bottom.
|
|
|
|
NEW: Spectra
|
|
Collectors Series ring, Spectra is now available - while supplies last! We love this style so much but it has proven impossible to produce in a way that meets our perfectionist standards. We have a handful and have stopped production because each ring has a small cosmetic flaw. It's heavy though, the smallest size (46mm) tops 8 ounces. Available in sizes 46-54mm, don't expect them to last long.

|
|
SALE: Stainless Steel
|
|
|
Our Tungsten Carbide rings get all the attention but our exceptional stainless steel rings are of the same luxurious quality you expect from King Rings. They are on sale in February - $50 OFF - and are an excellent option when you're in the mood for something a little less heavy. No discount codes accepted for sale items, sorry.

|
|
RETURN: Auction
|
|
There was a time when King Rings had an Auction platform, have you been with us long enough to remember that? We have been teasing its return for ages and exploring ways to expand its scope - well, it's back! Two of our favorite artists join us with unique creations and there are some Collector Series cock rings for sale too. Our intent is to host one Auction Round per month, see site for details.

|
AUCTION: Custom Box
|
|
Many of you may remember our elusive woods craftsman whose custom made, exotic wood ring boxes graced our store in years past. He's back! This Indian Rosewood and Spalted Maple jewelry box is a unique work of art made to hold 3 King Rings. We are encouraging him to be a regular contributor to our Auctions platform.

|
|
AUCTION: Necklaces
|
|
We have told countless customers that our teeny tiny rings make great necklaces so we invited one of our favorite artists to prove it! She created four beautiful, leather necklaces, each with a teeny tiny King Ring as pendant and available to purchase on our Auctions platform. We think this could be a really good thing and hope she finds reason to keep us well supplied in the future - maybe with regular items in our Catalog.

|
|
AUCTION: Pipeline
|
|
Collectors Series ring, Pipeline is now available on our Auctions platform. It is very similar to Blue Horizon but with a pipe cut (not dome cut) which gives it broader shoulders and makes it a full ounce heavier - putting it in league with Gold Champ. Available in 48-50mm sizes but there are only two of each available.
|
|
|
|
FREE: Leather
|
|
|
Our leather ring pouches have been on sale for a couple weeks - if you had not noticed. If you don't already posses this luxury upgrade, now would be a great time to give your ring(s) the royal treatment. In February only we are offering a special deal to readers of our newsletter (that's you) - when you buy a new glans ring, leave us a note during checkout to add a leather pouch. That's it, we'll include a leather glans ring pouch at no additional cost (a.k.a. FREE!).

|
OFFER: Secondhand
|
|
Do you have a ring to sell? We would love to help you. Exclusively for existing King Rings customers, post your ring of any brand or make for sale on a third party site (like Ebay or Craigslist) and market it to visitors of KingRings.com. We don't charge for this but it is mediated and has some simple rules. Find all the details here.

|
NSFW: Community
|
|
We keep our store pretty safe for work, not because we're squeamish but because we have a pipe dream of breaking into more mainstream marketing. There is a user-driven community of gentlemen sharing NSFW selfies on Reddit and they would probably love to see you share.
|
|
|
Our rings are tough to photograph - no one knows that better than our founder, Scott King - but we certainly see some great creativity from members of the King Rings family. Challenge yourself to capture the true character of your favorite ring and join the exchange.

|
BETTER: Search
|
|
|
The filter on our Catalog page now works better - more like you would expect it to. Select your size and we will show you ONLY rings we currently have in stock in your preferred size. It takes the site a couple seconds longer to search but we think you will like the result regardless.
|
|
|
|
STOCK: Incoming
|
|
|
A small shipment of rings is due by the end of this week to include some currently out-of-stock ring styles/sizes. If you have not already signed up to receive re-stock alerts, we suggest you do that now. This is not a queue or reservation system and in no way guarantees you'll get the ring you are waiting for - but it is your best chance. The automated notification emails are triggered in real-time as we add inventory the to site's database. Good luck!

Personal Notes
|
|
|
As of February 1st, it has been one year since I quit my day job to take on King Rings full time - it was previously a side-gig. Business has been great, posting 140% growth year over year with no paid marketing. Mrs. King has reduced her day job hours to help more with the business and we expect her to be full time here by the end of the year. The love of, and demand for, our rings has been astonishing and every time we ramp up our supply line, demand strips away our lead. We're working on it and expect $350k+ worth of product from our jewelers later this Spring. We are a zero debt company so every ring you buy helps us buy more. I am so thankful for each and every one of you ring loving gentlemen, my life has been enriched in so many ways by this venture!
