MilesBuzz! - Does anyone have any experience with Points.com?

Does anyone have any experience transferring miles between programs with Points.com? They seem to take away most of the miles as a fee when you transfer. The only use I can see for this program is to transfer a small number of miles in order to log a transaction that would prevent miles from expiring.

There are some existing discussion threads about Points.com in MilesBuzz Forum alone. I recall seeing Points.com mentioned in SPAM Forum as well.

IMHO, this may be the only & best use of Points for any savvy FTer. ;)

A small transfer from one program to another via points.com has also counted as an easy "partner transaction" in some of the recent partner promotions, i.e. Priority Club.

I used their website back when they did the merging of my AW/US accounts, and I viewed few other account balances there regularly. I didn't use them for balance transfers because most conversions were lousy.
But, then I noticed that Award Wallet stored many more of my accounts, so I switched to them to view my balances.

A few years ago I transfered my orphan YX miles over to AA using them. It was a good experience especially as 250 AA miles are worth more than 2,200 YX miles to me.
