I know, this makes me so sad because the non-Greek people who buy them have no idea of their significance. Last summer I saw a Quill on there, and was shocked when I saw it had my chapter guard on it! I FREAKED, and wrote to the guy auctioning it off. He said it was about 45 years old, and he had bought it at a garage sale! I about died...I tried to buy it, but the bidding got up to over $300. Luckily, the girl who bought it was an AXiD, so at least it's still in the "family"!!!

I think this should tell us something....tell your next of kin or whoever that you either need to be buried with it, or it needs to be sent back to nationals when you die. Freaky thought, but I bet that's how most badges get there in the first place.
