1) WHen you buy your badge it is yours and while we have guidlines about what to do when you quit the chapter or are deceased they are only guidelines and so the owner can do what they wish with their badge.
2) its not illegal to sell something that belongs to you (no matter how much I cringe and scream when I see one of my GLO badges etc on ebay).
3) we mearly try to identify the member based on the information on the back of the badge from the picture and contact them to tell them where their badge is.
unfortunately many people leave their stuff in an estate sale and so these sellers buy stuff and resell it.

Yes, but if I'm reading the original post correctly, these are NM pins (not badges). I know for my own org, the individual member does NOT purchase these, therefore they do not belong to them and the member has no right to sell them. Ours have to be purchased by the chapters.
