I'm shopping for my (mens) wedding band on ebay...need help?

Ive been to a few of the jewelers, and around the web, and I noticed that the exact same rings are on ebay for hundreds less than in the jewelry store. Literally the exact same, on ebay for like 20$ at fred mayer for 500$ or so. Is there something wrong with the rings? Are they cheap titanium or tungsten or whatever? Does anyone know of a cool online jeweler with nondescript manly rings? I would really enjoy the savings on my honeymoon if at all possible.

I can pretty much guarantee you that the $20 ring you find on ebay is not the same as the $500 ring at a jewelers. Logic and common sense should tell anyone that, especially if the seller has more than one of the same ring.
http://www.designbands.com/ - has a lot of choices and allow you customization.
I don't think they are cheaper quality if that's what your asking.. Just make sure whom ever you buy from on eBay they have a return policy! And also use Paypal to also ensure you wont get scammed...(paypal will give you your money back if you never receive the item) I don't know where you live but my hubby and I got his ring that was quoted to us for 375$ from the major jewelry stores for 99$ on sale at JcPennys. If you worried about eBay then search the sale adds... The department stores always have these things on sale!
Spend the money at the jewelry store. You will get better service, and they are more likely to give you better care of the ring if you need to have it cleaned, resized or have any cuts in the band fixed. You'll regret not spending more money on a good ring from a reputable place if you get one off eBay and it turns out to be either a fake, damaged or wrong size!
I bought my husband's titanium band on ebay... and he loves it. The online distributors are like Walmart in that they get HUGE inventory for a reduced price and pass the savings on to you. If you're going for titanium, which I recommend cuz most men beat the hell out of their rings, or lose them, I say go with ebay. Just get him measured at a local jewelry store, and only buy from US sellers. Here's the seller I used on ebay. I've bought other jewelry from them since then. Highly recommend them. Very professional and excellent quality.
If it is the same ring then why not go for it, and for $20 if you don't like it you can afford to look elsewhere. Somethings to keep in mind- titanium and tungsten can not be resized so make sure you go to a jewelry store to be sized- they will be happy to do that (they should also be happy to clean and or fix your ring no matter where it is from, this is sort of jewelry code). Also, when you are sized make sure that they have you use sizers that are the same width as the band you are looking at as it will affect the size. Gold and platinum are required by law to have info engraved on the piece. ex: it has to say 10k or 14k or 928 for platinum. So you can use this info to gage if it is real or not. One last thing regarding tungsten- it is relatively new in the jewelry mens ring world however you can not cut it off if your finger grows and you need to have it removed. It has to have presser applied to it at certain areas in order to shatter it. Good luck and congrats!
I'm with you! But you'll likely have to spend at least $300 for something of substance. Watch out for the terms "gold plating", "gold filled", "gold layered"...they all mean it's cheap sterling silver or mixed metals underneath. And don't get sterling silver...it tarnishes and nicks badly. This link will give you some to look through, and you can sort by price: http://www.shop.com/Jewelry+%26+Watches-a-men%27s+gold+band-of-Material-in-Gold-k48-st.shtml If that's too expensive, try antique shops in your downtown area, and you can pay a local jeweler a small fee to clean it up and buff out any perfections for you.
