Thanks, everyone, for your thoughtful replies! I and all of my sisters have always been taught that our badge is the property of Nationals and is to be returned to them upon our death or deactivation. However, I don't recall if I ever signed anything attesting to that or not.

What if GLOs started requiring members to sign such an agreement? Do you all think that eventually Ebay would stop accepting GLO badges for sale once they are confronted with a legal document pertaining to the badge?

This is really a mind exercise for me more than anything! It just seems to me that if GLO governing bodies really want to make sure their badge never ends up on Ebay, there must be a way to make it impossible for them to be sold. But then, of course, the time and money that would need to be invested to enforce it may just not be worth it.
