And I do agree the first is _more_ reasonable, but would anyone really consider a 2011 EVIP to be comparable to 20k PC points?
The hotel in question is sold out in early October.
The rooms were only offered at 5k a night for a short period.
Surely there should be some premium involved?
I have traded several Marriott certificates where the vendor was
obviously making a profit out of me. I didn't mind as I was getting a
far better rate than I would normally have paid.
The same principle applies here. 4 nights at a sold out hotel may be
of value to somebody. I value EVIP's between $300-500 - I dont regard 4 nights with a face value of $800+ being an unfair exchange.
