There's a clause saying if u are under quota for the DBS$ requires they will charge you HKD 2 per DBS$, assuming someone just joined and desprately need the miles then 1740 HKD for 15K miles isnt bad at all
The discounted cash purchase case is also the only case where the Black Bazaar deal may work http://www.hongkongcard.com/forum/fo...ow.php?id=5650

But at $0.116 per mile they aren't really cheap...and a 15K block may be more than what's required as a top-up purchase.
