Yep, the 850s are out of stock already - less than a day, I think. I just redeemed for a 3000 and it started with EM. It sure does look like they go in alpha order. Interesting.
I doubt if I'll get enough to do another 3K before they run out, but please keep posting your redemption letters - it will help me (and others) decide if I need to go all out and try for it or just give up! Thanks all!

That's a hell of an act, General.
Just tried the 850 miles for 335 pts and it says out of stock.
There are hogs who have multiple email accounts
lurking who took most of the delta mile coke redemption
codes to sell on eBay.
you see it all the time. surprised coke put miles back up
after they've seen this stuff going on against their
policy and it is also against delta terms & conditions.
little wonder the coke rewarsds program has gone done
the toilet with crappy rewards as people have been selling
just about everything on eBay, amazon and craigslist.
No ethics, morals or honesty left in these morons anymore.

I hope DL takes them down indivudually since there are many DL loyalists earning them faithfully for the DL awards to hopefully return in the new year...they must not have gotten too many this time around anyway knowing their popularity or they would have sent some notice out to DL SkyMiles members in advance to both increase awareness of Coke and SkyMiles.

What I don't understand is why Coke doesn't limit the redemption of rewards to one per day per account. If they did so, the rewards would last a bit longer, especially with all of the pent up demand for a decent reward.

you guys seemed so surprised and upset at people doing this on Ebay and at DL for allowing it and MCR for not coming up with a better system.. IMHO the only one to blame is MCR as they could come up with a better redemption system.
If a lot of you are like me, you maxout with your input of codes daily;just build up a huge balance and when (if you are lucky enough to find out when these inventories are released) they come available you pounce for as many as you can.
MCR has extended this program without any benefit to the consumer other than the extension for a 2nd year in a row now, they know the game and so do the vendors. So I don't blame the EBayers (and I am not one) nor the vendors, I put it all on MCR. I just monitor it often and once a reward that appeals to me hits (and I find out) I will unload my boatload of points on it just like I did with the last load of PC points, I was able to rake in a ton of those, it was great and worth the wait.
Just keep waiting and pounce when its your turn to hit the MCR lotto
