15k x 1.1 which is the low side.

One can easily get at least 1.5 value using CSR.

Understand, just saying the guy is selling it on the cheap, if there is nothing in return.

Explain how you use Hyatt points with CSR?  ::)
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Then they would UR points not Hyatt points. That is why UR is worth more than Hyatt.

Wait how is this price established

Wouldn't it be what people are willing to sell & buy it for?  Like anything else?  No way I'd sell that for less than $170 unless it was very short expiration.   A category 4 room could easily go for $250-300/night and that's without any Globalist benefits.

Are you searching a block of nights in a row, and the hotel shows points availability for all nights?  If this is true, but when you look night by night, one or more nights don’t show availability, then the property is playing with availability by marrying nights together under stay minimums.  This has happened to me many times.  The easiest way around this is to search one night at a time and isolate which nights are under the stay minimum for availability, then book those nights together under points, and finally call Hyatt to have them reduce the reservation to the single night you actually want.  This unfortunately won’t help with cert only bookings, as single night availability is required, and even when calling in Hyatt often can’t convert the points booking to a cert if the reservation system is still using minimum stay requirements, etc.  This happened to me this month for a Hyatt Regency Austin stay.
