It is very difficult for a new collector to buy professional sports rings directly from players. For those, your best bet is to buy from a dealer or an auction house. College rings can usually be found on ebay and craigslist and a lot of the time the seller is the actual player who needs cash and is selling at a good price. Salesman sample rings are a good investment if they are real sample rings but there are many fakes out there so you have to be careful and know the difference. That can be tough for a new collector but experienced collectors can usually tell a fake sample right away. If you are buying from a reputable dealer you likely won't have to worry about buying a fake ring. Hope this helps.
