Eric, if you are looking to gift it, I'll gladly take it. I take fairly long hauls in higher buckets from DFW often.
If you are suggesting selling or trading, that absolutely is against the T&Cs of BusinessExtraa awards. Think of it as a lesson learned. I use mine for free flights or AC membership.

When I called the Meeting Services desk to inquire exactly how to do this, the agent nicely pointed out to me that since my ticket was booked in Q, it was not eligible. (She did offer to book an eligible class ticket for me for the $150 change fee plus the fare difference. I declined that generous offer.)
So, I now have a BXP1 one segment upgrade which is good through 12/31/12 and which I foresee no opportunity to use. I can't have the points replaced in my account, of course. So, the best I can do might be to offer this certificate to someone who might want it because it has value to them.

I'm open for ideas, <redacted>.
Thanks,
