This seems about right to me.

As recently as October of last year, I had a much better experience with Saver inventory.

So, what's the strategy now?

We should use miles to buy regular price and then monitor for saver inventory then "refund" the original and re-purchase at saver?

Surprised there has not been more dialog about this. It's a huge change for the worse and frankly, this decimates the one and only thing I thought was still good about COdbaUA.

Now there is nothing left but a shell.
