Well, the 99% of those who read this board and live in the USA just may not find it DUFF as you so curiously call a specific link.
Why would anyone in the UK even bother reading a thread (and then taking great pains to criticise the posting of it) clearly involving flights to Spain for $300 a ticket, when every bucket shop in London sells tickets for 50 quid or whatever?

According to article about this board in iside flyer, approx 20% of posters live outside the United States (you and I included). I would guess that proportion has increased since the article was written.
I have no wish to criticize the link you posted, or your posting of it, in any way whatsoever. I just wish that users (all users, in general, including myself) posted topics with accurate headings. It is possible to waste so much time by going to threads that are named non-specifically. When quoting bargain airfares, where from is just as relevant as where to.

Point taken. 
Just assumed being priced in $US it would be taken as US origin. Pretty good deal .. wish these things fitted into my plans one day.
That thread a few days ago where you or someone else in UK posted fares from UK to Oslo for £9 or whatever, and a heap of oither places nearly as cheap really had me drooling, even though the taxes were several times that.
Surprised it is 20% FT'ers outside USA but they of course have the data!
