The U.S.-owned Asda supermarket chain announced the rings will be available at 195 of its British stores that have jewelry counters April 8, when Charles and Camilla marry in a London civil ceremony.

"The ring has gone down very well with the public," an Asda spokesman said. "We have had a lot of requests for copies and our jewelry buyers have been able to come up with a bargain." For more serious royal-wannabes, the chain is also accepting orders for an upscale copy of the ring for $55,000. Those rings are made of platinum and have 4.8 carats of diamonds. The spokesman said that makes it the most expensive item sold in the supermarket.
