Not everyone sells to brokers. Also what makes someone a broker?
The wiki says rates from brokers.

This may be against the rules.
But if you find a TA who needs you may be able to, 1.4 is nice tho

any one here know if shlomosmiles is a reliable points broker?

didn’t he close shop?
I remember hearing that he closed shop screwing a few people with a lot money....

Fwd: BEWARE; if you're selling miles or points, stay away from a guy named Shlomo or Alex Kay. His company name changes but he's been using the same phone number (below). He just scammed us out of a ton of money. Here's his contact information: ShlomoSmiles@gmail.com, shlomosmiles@icloud.com, Sashakoro@gmail.com home/ office 718-380-2574,
Mobile +1-646-675-2627 This isn't a repost. Happened to us personally.
