That store is pretty awesome. The only problem is cash for points promo makes the store pointless. Also, racking up points requires playing on UB, something that I'm not ready to do.

Yes, there is a notable markup on the items compared to what you can buy with your own cash, but the nominal points-to-cash value (based on points needed to enter donkaments as well as their old 2.5M points for $10K in cash deal) is actually:

2500 ultimate points = $10

The points-for-cash promo deal was pretty incredible, until UB changed their darned rakeback/points policy.

I imagine that you can. This was the method suggested by UB to earn the 3M points or whatever for that Harley. I don't know what those tables are like now, but back in January, I accumulated ~125K points in about 3 weeks, playing a couple hours a day. And I'm a microstakes donkey.

This is correct. They low, medium and high UB points stakes. Basically you could win yourself these prizes by playing at their tables.

He meant he played the points tables and got that many. He didn't mean he played cash tables and then earned that many points.
