Lightbulb eBay Screen Names

Ladies (particularly mods). I'd like to suggest that we post a thread and pin it that lists our eBay names. I see that there is an A-Phi bidding on one of these pins right now. I won't bid against a sister for a pin, but I think I might have recently done so -- unknowingly. So if we could get a master list going of at least the GC A-Phis that would help us rescue pins and do so for less money (hopefully!).

It makes no sense (at least to me) to get into a bidding war with an Alpha Phi sister over a relatively ordinary pin -- just to rescue it. In the case of extraordinary pins, I can understand the desire to own one and compete with a sister for it.

But generally, we're all out for the same goal and that's to keep the pins out of the hands of collectors and other non-Alpha Phis. We can buy a standard Alpha Phi pin from Masters of Design for cheaper than a lot of these standard pins are going for and I think it could many times be sister vs. sister (unknowingly) for the sake of saving it.

Just my thoughts. :-)
