I was thinking a 20% haircut to the $1200 face value would be more than sufficient to entice people.

I agree that people won't trust foreign agencies as much post-pandemic, but this 1:1 kind of selling is not exactly your overseas travel agency sort of thing and people would make a distinction between the two (I can't imagine Hawkeyefan would charge fees etc like a travel agency would).


Thanks for the intel re ozbargain classifieds - never done it myself so didn't know such a rule existed.
20% ? Think you're dreaming, especially when Rex, who basically offer the same service as Qantas or Virgin are much, much cheaper. Travel bank can't be used on all fares either. I think you'd go through a lot of hassle for very little $$$. Maybe give them to someone who is flying Australia & then flying around domestically.
