To me, it's a gamble. Can't close until May 2013. Wait another 8 months and see what the resale market does. You could potentially buy a better contract in 8 months (and possibly today) that has current points and possibly banked points as well for the same price.

I have a small BWV contract that has points, I could ask for big $$$ with some of these buyers.
