Selling SkyMiles?

I NEVER fly Delta (or it's partners) so I have 13k miles that I do not have any use for. Is it possible to sell them? What can I do with them before they expire?

Sorry if this is a dup. I searched but couldn't find anything

You can transfer them to another DL account. I think until the 15th, there is a 20% bonus and the total fee is reduced.

But selling them is illegal as per the Skymiles rules. You are only allowed to give them away for free to a friend or a charity.

Selling them is a really good way to get rid of all of them- because DL will shut down your account and take them away.
(and they might shut down the account of the person who buys them, too).

You should either:
Give them to a relative
Give them to charity (through the delta website)
or Buy magazines with them.

Probably charity is one of the better choices.
