It's been gone over on GC many times: there are lots of non-sinister reasons that people might collect Greek badges. Some collectors may be doing the Greek world a favor by keeping old badges from disappearing forever.

And as much as I love and honor my own badge, count me in the list of people who would be horrified to see my Fraternity spending money to "rescue" badges instead of to support chapters and the like.
