I think it would be almost impossible to guarantee that a particular GLO pin on eBay would go to a specific member of that GLO. You can do private auctions, where you limit the bidders on the auction to a select group, but how would you go about verifying everyone's claim to membership? Think about how much money and time you'd have to put into that verification - would it really be worth it.

After all, some of the most active pin collectors on eBay ARE Greek themselves. Kind of a catch-22 situation.

Even if a GLO wouldn't pay you for the pin, maybe they would consider it a tax deductible donation to their organization and provide a letter. That way you might be able to write off the purchase price of the pin on your income tax. Check with a CPA to be sure, though, before going forward.
