How would one approach Nationals for establishing a program like Kappa's and Gamma Phi's? I believe that several Nationals do reimburse for rescued badges.

I think Sigma more views it as the more these badges are purchased the more will be sold. The old law of supply and demand. If there is no demand (or people willing to pay for them) then the supply will stop showing up. Just my take from what I have seen over the years.
I used to send in an email to nationals several times a month over badges being for sale on Ebay. It was even to the point I kept the number for EO on my cell phone. Sadly I found that out of the maybe 20 badges I sent info on to nationals only 1 or 2 were pulled off sale, the rest were just sold before sigma could do anything.
