Buying and Selling QFF Points 'the naughty way' ...

[Rick93]

Now I'm fully aware, that the 'buying and selling' practice on THAT ONLINE AUCTION site was a 'no-no' ...

However, it looks like it's come to an end.

As of today, when I looked, I can only see one single offering ( which may go at any minute ? )

Previously, I have seen up to 20 offerings at any one time ....

So, was there a big crack down by QANTAS ?

Anybody got a story on this ?

Similar? I think the value is even better than paying for them!

Oh, I did / have ...
I purchased a QANTAS Wine offer a few months ago, for $535. ( I think it was ).
12 very good reds, with the top wine being a 2020 Bleasdale 'Inveniam Viam' Cab Malbec. RRP $259.
There was another with RRP of around $100., with most selling for $30. - $40.
But the real selling point was, the 25,000 bonus QFF Points.
So, for $535. I got some really nice reds, plus 26,605 QFF Points ( which I used for a J flight, SYD - ADL )

The last time I looked at 'that auction site', the going rate was 100,000 points for between $1,800. and $2,500.

There used to be a guy on the site, who would advertise to BUY 100,000 points for $500. He used some line, targeted to those who received their points from the AMEX offers, claiming, he was paying more than it cost the account owner for their AMEX card membership per year.

Definitely better than buying from QF

Ebay sells it at a discount - you know, being illegal and all... But even then it's like 0.1cpp difference to QF wine.
