Based on what are you saying that?
The market is still flooded. A friend of mine put in a classified for 1 cent per mile, and he got in one day 35 calls. he right away removed that add.
And the price is still a fortune per ticket, so why would it go up?

I disagree with you totally. I read very well what you wrote.
It is NOT worth to get you own BA for that price, if you can get others for cheaper. period.
manysellers feel taking a risk using a acount with s/o else name and having the acc shut and losing a costumer who tkct got cancelled is not worth the risk for the .15 difference. and i agree. you may either disagree or not have that much bad exp. you can have your opinion but you asked , "I'm not really getting why someone should pay more than 1.3, when he can get Continental & AA for 1.5.
Anyone?" obviously not evryone thinks like you

But as a person that booked over 100 BA tickets (third parties), and never got an account closed down with one booking. I'm entitled to ask such a question.
You can always find someone with less experience that will be afraid, and you can even try to find someone that doesn't know any value of miles that would buy MR for 2cpm. But I'm talking generally in the mileage industry I'm no getting why an experienced broker should pay more than that. simple.
book another 100 (first party) and you may find out why
