Not very valuable FWIU, only really worth it for airfare that cost $400-500.

From another thread...
Selling any airline or travel booking at 85%, no gift cards needed - straight up purchase.

PM for more details.
Is that allowed?
nope and he's way overpriced
What would be fair for this arrangement (amex bp).

Why do you say that? Do you know anyone that would offer even close to that now????

The market is flooded due to the Hotel transfer promo.
