I've bought a few, when the price is right. I can tell you none of the passes I've bought were fakes and none were reused. They were all still attached to the original paper backing that is used by Chase for shipping. I just think that most people who get the Chase card decide to sell the passes.
Maybe a Chase employee has access to them? But all the passes I bought have been from different sellers

I'm liking the WiFi improvements at the CLE UC. Looks like they've got new enterprise grade Cisco access points, and a 50M/50M connection to the OneCleveland network. I was speedtesting at about 33 down / 40 up, and I'd say the UC was about 70% full. The WiFi password of the day is displayed at the front counter and at the bar, so there's no requirement to enter a MP number and PIN.

On the shelf was a 1.75 liter bottle of McCormicks vodka.....the price was LESS than $12, and it wasn't on sale. Can't get any cheaper than that.

McCormick's is good stuff. On a rainy night, only takes a couple thimbles full to get the burn barrel going to keep you and the rest of the hobos warm.

United Club changes (drinks and Wifi) - Sept. - Oct. 2013
Tried the CLE Airspace lounge this morning, and have to say I'm impressed... we'll see how long it lasts. Free admission w/ AmEx plat, and I just finished eating my (also free, on the complimentary cash-card they gave me) Sausage & Cheese muffin w/ a big coffee-shop sized mug of Peet's English Breakfast tea.
Talking to the lounge staff, they have Yuengling on draft, and a bunch of bottles of beer including Westmalle Tripel, Dogfish Head and a Great Lakes seasonal. House bubbly is Mumm Cuvee M. Full bar. Cash card is enough for a beer/wine and snack from the dining menu. Free wifi, fast.
At least until everyone in CLE discovers and mobs the place... wow. UA may live to rue the day they sent me and other FFs exploring the other facilities in our airports!
Viva la difference!
