I am assuming you tried to calculate the price working backwards from the miles (79,000). The miles stop at $12,500. I tried to get Blue Nile to work around this in two separate e-mails, but they would not budge.

Again, I am not looking at Blue Nile for the miles, but 79,000 miles for an otherwise good purchase makes a difference.
