Don't "Bling" If You Won't Pay

Don't "Bling" If You Won't Pay

Hope the jeweler has a new store policy!
On Wednesday, rapper Lil’ Wayne was ordered by a Miami judge to pay New Orleans jeweler Jack Sutton $146K.
The Lollipop man reportedly purchased a $138,000 diamond ring and $32,000 gold-and-diamond necklace from the jeweler in October 2006. They did the deal by phone, with Carter promising to make monthly payments, Sutton says.
The rapper sent one $24,000 installment, Sutton sent him the jewelry, but then Wayne quit paying.
That’s a load of money! Why didn’t he demand full payment before releasing the jewels?!
The jeweler filed suit last October, but it took eight months to serve Lil’ Wayne with a copy of the complaint.
A source says Wayne may return the $138,000 ring — rather than pay the cash.
He should’ve returned the ring earlier!
