Description

Quite possibly the rarest item EVER auctioned on eBay, the 17th letter of the alphabet CAN NOW BE YOURS! The letter Q's history is something of a mystery. Believed to have been created in Stoudoum, a monastery in Constantinople around 700 AD, this item is without a doubt one of a kind. Whatever's it's origins may be, the power of Q is undeniable. Take for instance the telephone. Why is it that the letter Q only appears on the dialpads of newer phones? What do phone companies know now about this mysterious letter. The first Greek alphabets contained Q, however it was dropped by the Ionics? What did this great civilization fear from the forces of Q? I'm afraid only the winning bidder will be able to parse the riddles of this ancient letter. Before you go any further, the seller would like to offer a few words of warning. Always keep Q out of the reach of children. Also, people with heart conditions or serious neck injury should stay away from Q at all times. And finally, no matter how strong the urge, you must resist the powers of darkness AT ALL TIMES when in the presence of this stoic phonogram. Q has many followers, most notably the letter U, which tends to follow Q at all times. Think of all the things we wouldn't have without Q. Quantum physics, inQuiries, Quadratic equations, and even Quail eggs wouldn't exist without this magnificent letter. Time is running out my friends. Don't miss out on this ONCE IN A LIFETIME OFFER!
