Bad Idea!
SERA is the "coordinator for the South east USA".

Quote from the SERA website:

"The SouthEastern Repeater Association, Inc., does not intend to post the SERA Repeater Database on our "web site". As a non-profit organization, our livelihood depends on the support of our full and associate members, the publication of the SERA Repeater Journal, and the monetary fees we receive there from."....

As I said, SERA isn't the only source for the information.  Other individuals and possibly organizations also keep track of the frequencies and other info of the repeaters in those areas.  THEY are the ones that have the information on the web, not SERA.  And as I said also, nobody will have full, complete, up to date information for the simple reason that there may always be changes that have just been made.

By Googleing "southeastern United States ham radio repeaters" you can get hundreds of references and lists--of which these are but a sample:

Amateur Radio Repeater database - Updated daily - Artsci Publishing
          www.artscipub.com/repeaters

Repeater Directories - myHAMcallsign.com - Your HAM Radio ...
           www.myhamcallsign.com/repeaters.php

:: RepeaterBook.com :: Amateur Radio Repeater Directory
            www.repeaterbook.com

With lists like these and the resources of the web, the only reason to buy a repeater directory is that you're supporting the ARRL.  Personally, I find the first in my list about the most complete and best kept up of the ones I've seen and used.
