Historically I would happily convert my 5,000 AGR to 25,000 Choice and even when it went down to 15,000 I would still do it occiasionally as I thought there was some value to be had for me.
Choice is quickly hiking award costs in much of the world. There are still some good deals to be had, but I'm spending Choice points as fast as I can. I am transfer-eligible, but won't be transferring any more points to Choice.
