There are two problems with the sale of an alumni directory on ebay, the second being directly related to the first:
1) An alumni directory includes the names, addresses, phone numbers and other personal information on every single living alumnus of the Fraternity. This kind of personal information is designed to be available only to members of the Fraternity and to no one else.
2) Because of the information contained in this type of item, ebay's policies specifically forbid the sale of any kind of personal information such as that found in alumni directories, or any other kind of mailing list.
Since 1) this type of item should never fall into the hands of someone outside the Fraternity for issues of privacy rights, and 2) this type of item is explicitly forbidden to be sold on ebay by ebay's own policies, any type of sale like this should be immediately reported to ebay so that they can terminate the auction.
