Anyway, since I sell antiques, I go to A LOT of estate sales and I often see greek stuff for sale. Although I've never bought any of the greek paraphernalia, I'm well aware of the fact that these days estate sales are swarming with eBay sellers and someone IS going to buy the stuff and sell it.

Ideally, I would buy any GLO badges I came across and send them to their various HQs. Of course I can't do this because I would soon be broke. So, what should I do?

I've thought about buying any badge I come across and then contacting someone from that GLO and selling it back to them at cost. However, not all estate sales give receipts and I'd probably end up being accused of profiting from the sales.

Any suggestions?

Leslie Anne,

I don't know how other GLO's handle it, but Delta Zeta Headquarters will pay anyone who rescues a badge from E-bay, an estate sale, pawn shop, etc. They will reimburse you for the price you paid up to $50. Although I can't speak for Nationals, I would think that they would not mind the lack of a receipt since you are obviously making a goodwill gesture by bringing the badges to their attention. Hope this helps!
