The "worth" of the free F seat to me is --- ASSUMING--- It is redeemable is far far less than 10K.

The "valuation" of the "F" seat is not the pricepoint at which AA purports to sell its unrestricted rev tixs.

Rather, it is the price that I am willing to pay for a highly resticted non mileage earning seat.
Well that was a lot of wasted energy vs. the answers as to what you can buy with these points that followed.
