Ticket price paid + 1-way points+cash upgrade ($450 + 35,000) x 2 is selling my points at a rate of 2.5 CPM based on current Polaris price, same flight/date.

Either way, I am looking for a better deal.
I certainly understand your desire for a better deal, but I think it's highly unlikely a better one will arise. You can view PZ inventory by signing in on UA.com and choosing to view flight results in "expert mode" (see https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unit...cket-data.html)

United miles are increasingly being devalued and at this point in time, I think 2.5 cpm is a moderately good redemption value.
