Arbitraging PC points (Great values!!)

[Drago]

I'll post the link, and let's hope this doesn't die too soon.

I'm sure we can figure out how to leverage this very nicely...

First question.
Anyone have an idea about how to get Amtrak Guest Rewards Select status? (Never thought I would ask this.)

Amtrak Guest Rewards does not match elite because they are the only rail program in the U.S., so the competition is slim.

Boo.
Maybe a linky hanging out there anywhere?

I just transferred 10k PC points into 13.3k Amtrak points.

Anyone know if by using an SPG stay certificate, if your SPG status will be honored, and if it'll count towards elite status reqs?

Seems like this might be a pricing mistake. Hopefully, they'll honor it.

Gary just posted about this as well.

And they sent out emails canceling the transactions.
They forgot a zero, so instead of needing 10,000 PC to 13,333 Amtrak, you need 100,000 I believe.
