Keep in mind I'm offering a redemption value not twice, not quadruple, but 10x better than an Amtrak sleeper award! ^
My local Mercedes dealer will sell me an S65 AMG for 20,000 AGR points. But wait, that car can ONLY be worth $400 in your world, since AGR points are only worth about two cents per point, and you'd never actually PAY what Mercedes is asking for the car.
