GLO stuff on e-Bay & what one GLO is doing about it
Hi Everyone,
I know this has been addressed before on this board, but I just wanted to post something that I saw on the website of Pi Beta Phi (or "Pi Phi" for short)
Pi Beta Phi is an NPC sorority.

"Badge Alert!
Have you seen Pi Phi badges for sale in antique stores, at estate sales or on the Internet? They may be lost, stolen or a family member may not have been aware of the proper disposition of the badge.
According to the Constitution and Statutes, "upon the death of its owner, a badge may be buried with its owner, bequeathed to a member of the Fraternity or to a collegiate chapter or alumnae club to be used as an honor badge or sent to Central Office for such disposition as directed by Grand Council."
Please note that the Pi Beta Phi archivist regularly looks for items on Internet auction sites. Should you see the id "piphiarchivist" please know the item is one Pi Phi would like to have for its archives. Central Office has previously owned badges for sale to members and in the future will feature them in the Marketplace."

I think it is commendable that one GLO has taken action to preserve the integrity of their badges, etc.
