Itinerary being booked with US flight numbers for the price that OP mentioned. Will not be to able upgrade with SWUs if someone wants since the ticket is not AA stock and AA flight numbers. $712 USD for AA flight numbers.

what are everyone's thoughts on whether this is a mistake fare or not? EF is showing C inventory for an SWU on some dates, but I'm not calling AA to upgrade if it will screw it up for others.
If I bought now and then called in to upgrade after it dies, and they tell me it was a mistake, I presume they would then let me cancel with no penalty or else apply the swu?

Snagged one in late August on all AA metal. Waiting for the e-ticket before I get too excited or start worrying about applying SWUs. Looking forward to the trip if all goes well...thanks OP ^

Looks like it is not bookable on weekends.
Booked two flights YYZ-MIA-GIG-JFK-YYZ for September (1 year anniversary). One for 9/3-9-10 and the other 9/2-9/14, at for $385.03 each. Will decide which (if either) to keep within the Expedia 24 hour cancellation window. Showing up in S class, which earns 0.5 EQP, if that matters to you.
We are JFK based, so thinking we could drop that last leg. Assume we would have to go with carry on luggage only.
Off to Abu Dhabi next Friday, now this! Nice.
An hour later, still has ticketed yet.

Be very careful bringing checked bags on the return if you plan on not going all the way to YYZ. I would not assume you'll get them back in JFK/MIA.

I think I'm going to go broke and/or out of a job with all these deals! Already have 4 vacations lined up this year, and I'm seriously considering this one as well.
Is it recommended to book through an OTA or directly with AA/US? I like the option to place a few on hold, except it's pricing out in CAD.

I'm considering doing this for US Thanksgiving. Positioning to YYZ is a bit of a pain though, but probably worth it for the cheap flight and a ton of miles.
Edit: booked for $448 CAD, 11/23-11/30 via Google Flights and usairways.com. Now to see if it tickets, but I'm going to sleep and will see in the morning. I can position to YYZ using Skypesos so nbd there.
