Drew Brees claims he was scammed out of MILLIONS by a jeweler who sold him an $8 MILLION diamond ring ... but the jeweler is saying Brees has no one to blame but himself.
The New Orleans Saints QB has filed a lawsuit against Vahid Moradi -- who runs the CJ Charles jewelry shop in San Diego, the city where Brees began his NFL career.
Brees claims he's been buying jewelry from Moradi for years -- and has dropped roughly $15 MILLION on some insane pieces ... including watches, earrings and rings.
Problem is ... Brees claims he recently had his jewelry independently appraised and was told his collection is worth $9 MILLION less than he paid.
In his suit filed Monday ... Brees says Moradi had insisted his jewelry was a solid investment that would definitely go up in value over the years -- and feels he was lied to the entire time.
Brees claims the biggest hit he took was on a 4.09 carat blue diamond ring he bought in 2015 for $8.18 million ... which recently appraised for only $3.75 million.
But Moradi's high-powered attorney, Eric M. George, says Brees shouldn't be pointing the finger at Moradi ... he can only blame himself.
"Drew Brees aggressively purchased multi-million dollar pieces of jewelry. Years later, claiming to suffer ‘cash flow problems,’ he tried to bully my client into undoing the transactions."

Probably spot on, this comment...

Halo

Drew will not be geting that GM job anytime soon Jewelry is not a good investment. Imagine if he dumped this into Bitcoin when it first came out. You're still rich, Drew. Most of us still live check to check so it's hard to feel sorry for you buddy.

8 mil on a piece of jewelry- wow. Most people never come close to making that in a lifetime. 10 years at 100,000= 1 mil. even at that rate it will only take 80 years

Hey, *****, will make a man do K-razy things...

But this is really surprising coming from Brees...

Not that he wouldn't want the best for his bride,

but he's the type that would make a value investment...

Bet he's p/o'd right now if he's litigating his grievance...

Kind of ironic that he's "9" million bones...

Brees is a private guy for the most part- very surprised he'd want this made public, as no way he looks good either way

of course, he did sue Kevin Houser as well. Seems like Drew should ask Tom Condom for a recommendation for a good manager

Kind of puts things in perspective, some of these Players live in a whole different world. A world most of us Commoners will never step foot in.
