I heard 1600-1700 but check around.

I sold mine at $750 on eBay in the first week and I can't even look what they are selling for now... it hurts.

Selling for $750 the first week was not a dumb mistake.

I put back the nozzle after about 10 gallons - not because I forgot to pump some more, but because I had no place to pump additional gas into.

They are selling for 35, I just pay reguler to refill, for my car not worth the effort.

Let my Hyatt anniversary night expire thinking I'd get 10K points, only to be told that the Chase issued nights can no longer be cashed into points or extended  :'(
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I assume you tried cancelling the purchase?  I thought there was a grace period to cancel digital purchases.
