We don't know who "cheeryoohs" is . . . I sent him/her an email (as did others in our pin-rescuing-group), and none of us has received a reply.
So, until we hear from this "cheeryoohs," it's open bidding season (unless, of course, we hear she's a Kappa).
I'm not really sure why this pin is fetching such a high price . . . it's not an old pin--it's from the 1970s. We know who the original owner was, but can't get a hold of her--she hasn't kept her address updated with HQ.
One reason that this pin may be going so high is that it is sapphires and diamonds. You don't see those a lot.
What I can't seem to understand is: why do Kappa pins seem to go for so much more than other pins I watch, like AXO, XO, and DDD? I always see KKG, PiBetaPhi, Theta, and Alpha Phi pins going for a TON of money! On the fraternity side, I see Beta Theta Pi, FIJI, Sigma Chi, and Kappa Sig pins going for big bucks, and Pi K A, Theta Chi, Delta Chi, and others going for around $100 or so.
Can anyone make sense of this????
