Well, you could also just live with the scratches in your ring (if you had one made of eg silver) and declare them part of how it matures with the passage of time. Just like copper gets a patina, too.
(I'm glad you are happy with your ring! I'm just saying that if people decide to be happy, they'll find a justification to be happy with what they have. And if they decide to be unhappy, they'll find a reason, too.)
