You're right, it does take a bit of time but maybe not as much as one might think.

Speaking of StubHub - I use them extensively, I definitely have a love/hate relationship with them. I hate them because of their fees, they take a total of 25% in commissions - 15% from the seller and another 10% from the buyer - on all sales (keep in mind they have no inventory of their own, talk about a killer business model!). I love them because they make it so easy (once you've done it a few times you can easily list an item in under two minutes) and because - like it or not - that's where the buyers are.

That was my favorite. We topped off the DL accounts for the whole family to take a trip. Nothing would make me happier than miles on either airline.

Actually, I'd prefer AA since their miles still expire and Delta's don't. We all have points with both.

I'd prefer AA since they usually have better award flights. I booked JFK-LHR in October for 40K RT on AA, DL was 60K for the same.

OK, too much of a bother for me to care about it, but I salute Yanx for being enterprising. :)

The first firesale was May 25, 2011 for reduced-price 500 point PC codes. The second and final blowout was July 20, 2011 (not June as I originally recalled), offering 2,000 point PC codes for 250 MCR points, no limit on number of redemptions.

Wow, so that second blowout was kind of a sneaky one for as I recall, everyone had kind of assumed that P/C had wound itself down as it failed to appear as a reward after that first fire sale.

Then, I assume, out of the blue, it was a Wednesday deal in July, never to be heard from again, until a couple of days ago?

I knew I wouldn't be able to make it. Out of town for work and had a bunch of caps at home to input. Was hoping the 2000 PCR would hold out until I got home tonight. Decided to grab a 500 PCR before they run out too. Now they'll probably come back with more of the 2000 and I won't have enought points again.

Thank you Mike! I love this site!

I was really excited about the 2k PC points last time it came out. I missed it today but given the upcoming devaluation (by 40%) of PC points, I'm not sure I would have done it anyway.
