I dont get why the $650 card is 50k points, but for 62k points ucan get $1000 nieman marcus card

[/ QUOTE ]

Because a $1k Needless Marcup is only worth about $200. I was there recently and a nice sweater caught my eye, nothing real fancy mind you, and I checked the price and it was $1,400.

Considering that you can buy $215 tourney tickets for 13,500FPP, unregister from the tourney and then sell your T$ for about $200 cash this works out to $400 cash for 27,000FPP. Or you can buy a $285 bonus for 25,000 FPP?

Worst. Bonus. Ever.

Accoring to Stars website you are not allowed to do this. I havent tried because I just made the switch over so I am only going by what is on the site.
