 Here we go again. I say good luck Kappa Keepers of the Keys. If you got the dough, save your badges  The article was great, and wptw, you're just crying b/c you'll have to pay more for your next Kappa key.

Kappas, why in the world did you allow yourselves to be used for this article? What a mistake! First of all, the article paints you as militant, elitist, Machiavellian freaks. But what’s more disturbing, you just advertised to the world that vintage Kappa keys are worth hundreds, perhaps over a thousand dollars on ebay. If you thought you had pin problems before (theft, skyrocketing prices, increasing numbers of badges on ebay, estate-sale scavengers, members selling their own pins, etc.), just wait and see the enormous can of worms this article opens.
I’m writing this not as a collector, but as a GLO member. I really urge other GLOs to think more carefully about their badge-rescue strategy. This was really a tactical error.
IvySpice, as usual you are right on target. Could not have said it better myself. $17,000 spent purely on PRIDE, when that money could have been used to really help a sister, or two, or 50. And she wins PRAISE for this?!?
