468.75usd for 50k Marriott points through May 15.
60k needed for 3:1 transfer with 5k bonus to airline miles.
Anyone buying?
I'll have to run some numbers. I used to use this in the SPG days for SQ & top up from VA/AMEX/SQ.
Not buying unless there is a plan (you seem to have one) for a quick redemption over to air miles. With the USD$ forex it is not good value unless you have a specific redemption in mind. That said, I have a feeling Marriott will never run a better offer than this (SPG used to do way better offers) ...though would be delighted if they did!

Yes it does extend the expiry date of your points when you buy.I've just remembered that I have points in my account, expiring in June 2019. Does buying points extend the life of the points? I'm not familiar with this program.

Hi all,
I’m relatively new to the points business but have managed to Send through my Amex points to KrisFlyer and am short for either 2x buisness Rtw or 2 x business Europe redemption. Is this a good way to add points to SQ ? I have 2 plans; 1) Europe at the end of the year or/and 2) Buenos Aires in July next year and then to Europe. I’m wondering what’s the best strategy? Alternatively I could buy Alaskan points at 50% bonus to do some of the traveling we want to do. Thanks in advance for any help or ideas offered.

How many KrisFlyer miles short are you? Keep in mind that Marriott has a relatively low annual purchase limit.
Another way to top up your KrisFlyer miles could be to buy Velocity points and then transfer them over. You'd have to work out which method is better value.
I have about 225k now and another 110k if transferring from amplify or my Bank of Melbourne.
