I want to see what happens.
I always decline these offers (had one only yesterday for Europe-DXB).

On every occasion, I've ended up being op-upped at the gate. Hopefully I will also be op-upped for my upcoming flight in the near future, but no big deal.

My advice is, never pay for the upgrade in these circumstances!
