I had a similar problem. It seems like I got stuck in the 740-750 range forever even though I read every thread I could find on myfico.com about raising my score and followed the advice to the letter. Finally, it started slowly rising as my accounts started to age longer. So long as you are in that 730-740+ range you can get whatever you want within reason.

I will tell you this, though, it is harder to go from 740 to 780 than it is to go from 680 to 720. Once you get to a certain point it is the small things that make a difference.
