Hello!
I see that you are bidding on a sorority pin. I dont know if you are looking for a particular one, but I have two different phi sigma sigma pins. To view a picture of one of them, go to www.burrpatt.com/phisigmasigma then click on badges and pins. you will see most of the phi sigma sigma pins that they offer. one of the ones that i am offering is the plain badge ($81.50) attached to the plain double letter guard ($36.50). i also have a
pyramid pin which is not like the ones here, but it is a triangular pin that gold and sapphire plated with the greek motto diokete hupsala engraved into it. this pin retails for $80. Together, these pins are worth almost $200, but I am willing to sell them both for $125 or the sphinxhead for $85 alone and the pyramid for $55 alone. If you are interested or know anyone who might be, please let me know! Thanks so much!

I hate to see badges bartered around like this, and wanted to let you know. ~Kristin
I stumbled across this thread, and just wanted to let you know for future reference that this woman emailing you is against ebay rules. You're not allowed to email someone who's bidding or has bid on an item and try to sell them one yourself- it's a form of auction interference. Also, never complete a sale like this off ebay- you loose all the protection that ebay and paypal affords you. If you ever were to decide to make a deal with one of these people, have them put it in an auction with a buy it now. Some people try to avoid this because it costs the seller fees, but it's really for the bidders best interest to get it on ebay.

Just my 2 cents
