LUV Voucher | Buy,Sell,Trade

Is there a place where people sell their LUV vouchers? I'm thinking unlikely but figured it would be worth a shot. I'm looking to upgrade a company WGA fare to BS on my dime but I want to minimize the personal hit so figured I'd reach out.

I think best bet is to find a Flyertalker near you and do it in person.

As far as I know, WN is OK with it, but I am not 100% sure. You could ask them. If so, Craigslist and ebay I guess.

Aren't these OK on Coupon Connection?

OP should have access very shortly.

I don't think Southwest cares, but I'd minimize my exposure nonetheless. Stick with friends and family or trusted Flyertalkers P2P.

Cash transactions are prohibited on FT, period. With 180 posts and 180 days of tenure here you can use Coupon Connection to trade for a non-cash item. There may be buyers of these things on Craigslist, but I haven't looked.

In other words... you (and I) haven't been members here long enough to have access to that particular thread.

I know that it's been said that some people sell the LUV vouchers on Craigslist or Ebay (the 10% fees are insane!) but have any of you had experience with that, in regards to it being "safe". My husband and I just got a $1017 LUV voucher on a flight to Vegas this past weekend, but we can't use it within the year (we already have two vacations bought and paid for this coming year) and I just worry about someone taking the voucher and then doing a charge-back or something to their credit card and then we've screwed the pooch so to speak. Any suggestions or pointers would be appreciated. I am a long time reader of Flyertalk and had to start a new account, because I couldn't remember my password on an old email account, so technically I'm a newbie!

Thanks in advance,

Stephanie

If your buyer is a scammer, they can tell paypal to take back your money and you will almost certainly lose the dispute. I wouldn't sell anything of high value on ebay for that reason. Do a favor for a family member or friend instead.

Most certainly.

Buyers beware... the voucher may be authentic but the numbers already redeemed.

I suppose this also could apply to sellers when a buyer resells it via another venue or username, and then demands charge back with proof it was redeemed.
