eBay story

This happened with Kappa too. I heard a story from our Fraternity Historian about a very old badge on Ebay. It was maybe around $300??? and the price kept going up. One of our badge rescuers, just to see what would happen, bid $2500. She was winning for a while, until that skidmarks guy that's been talked about before outbid her. He then proceeded to email her and say "ha ha, look how high you'll have to go now." As we all know, he's somewhat lacking in the manners department. Anyway, you know what they say, she who laughs last laughs loudest. She basically said "What's $3000 compared to preserving the history of a tradition more than 130 years old?" and outbid him. And she won.

Speaking of this skid guy I just thought you all would like to see the email he sent to one of my sisters when she emailed him to enquire whether or not he was going to sell this pin to the sorority.
Now that you ask, it was my full intent to insult your organization.
Adelphian, Alpha Delta Phi, Alpha Delta Pi... can't you women make up your
mind? Geez. Pick a name.

2 points to be made.

1. I offered it to one of your national officers before listing it on Ebay.
She was not able to make a deal for it (offered for far less that what I
will make on both Alpha Delta whatever you are called this century pins I am
selling).

2. IF the pin belonged to your organization, why do I have it with a
reciept for purchasing it from a scrap gold dealer? If I had not bought
these pins they would be large Mercedes-Benz symbols hanging on some persons
neck by now. You need to police your own organization better. If you
consider the pin the property of the group then you had better improve the
organization and the recruiting to get people with a better sense of what it
mean to be a member. They should have a note in thier will requesting the
pins be returned or buried with them. They should send the pin to the
undergrad chapter to be recycled and loved by a new member. Not sold for
scrap by your trailer trash decendents as these obviously were.

Seems like an internal problem to me. Take of your own house before coming
after my property.

Cheers,

Skid

PS I only put the "buy it now" amount up for some stupid sorority chick to
use. Usually one comes along and can't stand the thought of some pig like
me owning a cherished item of thier group and buys it. Works like a charm.
I make a fortune of these fools.

If you ahve a snese of humor, smile. If not. PACK SAND.


He sounds like a disgusting man who needs to find something better to do with his time than to spend money on other GLO pinss when he probably was never in a frat himself. Beware of the asshole.
