You consistently post numbers that are a) unrealistic, and b) not what brokers are paying so therefore it's not the going rate. Just because you once got 2 because a broker was desperate doesn't make that the going rate

Does that make Marriott points worth .7-.75 ? How about if the amount is equivalent to under 20k Starwood points?

+1, thus thread literally provides negative value to this forum, it's full of misinformation and stupid replies. If the real brokers here wanted to take the time to keep the wiki updated with real info then it could possibly help people, otherwise, this thread belongs in the dump.

Well maybe people that know the numbers will post them if they don't get shut down by others...
Truth is the points fluctuate alot in value, and it's pretty hard to put real numbers on them.

Part of the issue here is that we are dealing with competing interests. "Real brokers" have an interest in posting deflated prices to keep their costs down. Sellers have an interest in posting inflated ones to get paid more. Why are the deflated numbers from real brokers better than the inflated ones from sellers?
