Look in the American Express forum. There is a thread for each airline. For example,

The only problem with buying miles is making sure it's billed by the airline. Too often buying miles is outsourced by the airline to something like points.com, and doesn't count for that reason.
But as said above, see the Amex threads for individual airlines, and keep following them to see what really works how often and what's changing about what works.
