You have your reasons for thinking it’s wrong to sell GLO badges. Others have their reasons for thinking it’s wrong to sell Prada and Spade. To an objective observer, that’s apples and apples. It’s only apples and oranges to YOU because one of them is important to YOU.
Where we DO agree is with your proposed strategy for dealing with them when they do come up for auction. I have always advocated quietly rescuing the badges with as little noise as possible. Drama just drives up prices.

(because I just added it) I never said it was
wrong per se, just that I don't appreciate those types of sellers. I don't agree with some of their practices, but obviously, I'm not going to order them to stop.
This is why I would never be a good businesswoman--I hate politics such as these! I'd probably end up taking a loss just because I felt sorry for someone!
