Plus as DM I can get the odd upgrade plus quick phone support in IROPS. All of this is worth more than $6,000 to me.
I previously had a Delta Amex Reserve as well as a vanilla Platinum Amex. They have been paid off and I will never do business with that company again for personal reasons. It's not that I think it's a bad deal, I just won't deal with Amex again.
