I'm selling a united airline mileage account with 36,411 miles on it. A domestic flight within US is only 25,000 miles, and some promotional fares are even lower, so this account will be enough for 1 regular flight + something else, or even 2 promotional flights. You can also transfer the miles to your own account afterwards.

Price is 350$ firm. No other offers will be accepted. You can either send me payment by paypal, and I'll email you the account number and password; or you can give me cash face to face and use my computer to change the account info to yours. Contact by PM for details.

It looks like it'd cost you 364 bucks just to transfer that, but you can only do 15000 anyways.

nice try though.

the cost is if you transfer it to your own mileage account. alternatively you can just use this account to book flights. this is how ppl do on ebay if you do a little search. and i know i can sell this for more than 350$ on ebay but i dont want to pay all the ebay fees.

1/11/2008 2:59:31 PM

nvm, I thought you can transfer the whole mileage to my account. Trying to get enough miles to go to vietnam this summer. Needs 60,000

1/11/2008 3:09:08 PM

do the math, jean

To post the item for sale on Ebay you will pay around $3.50 + 3% of the selling price. Let's say you get $350 for it, like you suggest it's worth.

that's $3.50 + $10.50 = $14.00 Ebay Fees you will have to pay to sell your miles on Ebay


That means you should be willing to sell the items here for as low as $336


ok so your highest bid here so far is "This is sketchy as hell"

nobody is going to buy your lame miles here. Go to Ebay and pay the fees and sell it cause you won't get $50 from anybody on this website.

check the ebay price. it's close to 400$ for 36k miles. i know how much i can sell it for. and actually i've already sold it.

1/11/2008 10:24:09 PM

if you use the miles to buy the ticket, wouldn't the ticket be under your (the seller) name?

1/12/2008 12:14:19 AM

domestic travel costs are less than $350. Why would anyone pay more to get a 'free' ticket?

1/12/2008 11:52:27 AM

If she can Generate a ticket online with my name on it, Or Call into united and transfer the miles to my freq flyer account, or Call united and tell them "He's my boyfriend and he needs to use my miles"

whatever she has to say... if it works... i'll buy..
however she wont get cash in hand until i see the itinerary.. printed and ready to go.


I'm taking this trip regardless.. the cost is $538 cash. (without any deals or anything)
so if i can pay for the trip with $350 using her freq flyer miles its a deal..

if it turns out that she can't "print the tickets in my name" or some fine print complication arises.. I'll accept the false alarm.. but I'm not going to loose the opportunity to have a little extra spending money during the trip.

Frequent Flyer miles are the largest currency in the world right now (maybe an overstatement, but google it)
