Can someone save this from Ebay

It looks like "beigroup" is someone who buys up old pins. Their history shows that in the last month the have bought pins from all different sororities & fraternities.

Grrr.....

It might be worth our while to let the other GLOs know about beigroup, then. They've been kind enough to let us know when ADPi pins are up for auction!

I have a question.

When should we have learned about the rules of what we can and can't do with our pins? I know that we should only wear them when in "pin attire" for example, but beyond that, is this in ritual or something? (obviously if it is, don't respond!! & I'll ask my MEVP or something or look at Pride Online).

I only thought of this because last month my mom (who is a KAT) gasped when she opened a "Hallmark" magazine and saw a Theta pin off its backing and soldered onto a charm bracelet. Apparently this is against Theta rules (to do anything with a pin other than wear it).

I think it's in the handbook you get when you're an Alpha, but I may be wrong.

Here's another pin up on ebay where the bidding ends tomorrow at 2:48 Pacific Time:

I don't know if the current high bidder is an ADPi or not, but just thought I would let you all know!

I do have a question about pin attire, and wearing the pin: if you have a necklace or ring made out of the pin, are you not permitted to wear it with anything but pin attire?

This was unclear to us when I was a new member - we often wore the pin with jeans.

I THINK it's OK to wear your badge as a necklace or ring with any attire as long as you look halfway decent and not like a teen singing sensation (ha ha).

I don't have this in writing anywhere that I know of but I'll look through some of my ADPi notebooks.....

So much for having my pin made into a naval ring!!

Oh, yeah - like I'd be caught dead with that, LOL!!

thank you sooooooo much for asking this because I was wondering the same thing!!!

I told my parents that instead of a college graduation ring, I really really wanted a new jeweled badge mounted as a ring, so needless to say, I was pretty curious about this.

[honeychile]

texas*princess, I said the same thing!

I did rescue a pin/ring from ebay - but silly me, I didn't ask the size first! The previous owner must have had the skinniest fingers in the history of mankind! I need to see how much it's going to cost me to have it resized. If it's over $50, I may be offering for sale here!

Just to let you know, my mom DID win the sale, so another ADPi pin is safe!

[WLFEO]

Yeah! Chalk one up for the sisterhood!

just out of curiousity (or for my lack of ADPi jewelry knowledge) do you think that maybe back in the day, whenever that pin is from, that it is from the alpha pi (george washington univ) chapter? it seems like a really cool pin alternative. (not that anything could ever replace the diamond )

I wonder if (back inthe day) this was the necklace alternative for the badges, unlike what Gift Mart has for us today? It is really gorgeous...I'm gonna keep an eye on it, but I noticed the current high bidder is the same person my mom won the badge from yesterday, so I don't know, maybe I'll have to convince my mom again to put in a bid on the last day of the auction
