Domino - You will be glad to know I purchased that badge recently. I dealt with the seller directly because the amount he wanted was much higher than a similar badge from 1923 that I purchased from eBay and it was in near perfect condition.
I have rescued a handful of badges recently as I have finally been able to afford it. My sister is a Gamma Phi Beta and also rescues GPhiB badges as much as she can.
A frustrating one was a Theta badge & pledge pin I just purchased from a woman who turned out to be the original owner & initiated back in 1954. I have a feeling she was terminated or resigned because she mentioned only wearing the badge once. However, I am glad that it didn't go to a collector.
I didn't manage to win a Theta badge that was recently for sale. The winner seems to be an AGD based on the other items she has purchased. I hope she has a Theta relative who will received this badge.
Thanks for keeping an eye out! Feel free to let me know if you come across any Theta badges on eBay.
Katy <kaokite> is a great rescuer too!
