Well, that all depends. Buying 68 points needed equals about $385.50. In the above post I mentioned I think it would be very well worth it for any account with over 50 points and some about to expire. However, each situation is different - consider your next trip is priced at a lot more than $385.50 round trip and better yet, there's TB award availability on those flights. Then, you've made a wise decision in buying those points.

Also consider before switching over to DL that SkyMiles are much harder to redeem than TB points, IME.
