Badali Jewelry Returns - Calisuri @ 14:58 PST
Badali who is one of our few advertisers, had some problems with his website. Some of you reported a problem with it. I am just letting you know that his site is back up, and should remain up. If you want your very own One Ring check out his site here.

If you sell a product that relates to Tolkien and would like to advertise with us, you can find information about advertising here. TheOneRing.net is currently limiting advertising on the site to companies/products we feel would interest people who come to this site for the same reason they come here. I.e. companies products and services which are based in Tolkien or more generally in fantasy.
