Late autumn we had a big clear out in my house which turned into a mini competition between myself and SWMBO as to who could make the most cash in the process. I sold 3 Gold luggage tags for Ł17, Ł21 & 13 via ebay auctions.
I just used nail polish removal and cotton wool to remove the name and number.

Out of curiosity, what are peoples views on the following scenario?
A frequent flyer gets to GGL level and is offered the partner Gold or Silver cards, but has nobody to give them too, or no one they know are interested in them. Would it be unreasonable for them to sell the opportunity to have the cards to someone who may not travel enough to get lounge access etc in their own right, but who might be interested in paying to have a card?
I hasten to add that I am not in this position - I have several people jockeying for position should I ever get to the dizzy heights of GGL!
