Sure. If you need to be there to close the deal.

Agreed, but then again this is the Mileage Run forum. Not the "how-much-are-you-willing-to-pay-to-close-the-deal" forum.

Not this route but I just ok'd 3 summer trips as reasonable at 15ish cpm.
A friend just paid $300 for ABQ-IAH which is 20cpm
and I advised on another route that was SLC-BDL at $520 (4K miles or about 13cpm).
SLC-AUS OJ IAH-SLC for somewhere around 400
*my definition of reasonable is that you 'need' to take the trip and this fare won't get better*

But if you're going for extreme--I rechecked some SLC-IAH tickets I got during this past week for 256 (a stunning 11 cpm on this route) and they're now up to 560 as the 'standard' nonstop pricing (23 cpm if you're keeping score)

And you're the one who asked if someone pays these prices. Not every flight is flown as a MR or available at MR pricing--as you've apparently just discovered.
