Id like to add that the broker doesnt make it seem like mf could be something negotiated or volunteers that information. When I bought akv and didnt think of that being a possibility it was ofc never mentioned except for in the contract once it was drawn up.

Once I found out on the boards that this was possible, I did ask and the broker made it clear that since I was the buyer using the points that I was to be the one to pay them. I was more desperate at the time for points because we were going on a month long trip in september and I needed those points asap as it was already february and wouldnt be wrapped until April so I accepted that and reimbursed them and I didnt end up regretting it because we went and had an amazing vacation!

I always think, well, if I am going to basically get full use of the points, it is only fair that I would pay/reimburse the dues associated with those points. If the points have been banked/borrowed/distressed, I'm not getting full use, so not paying for the dues for those points is pretty reasonable IMO. And, if I am getting full use, but my offer includes not reimbursing the seller, then I'm effectively asking for a price/point that is less than the price by the amount of the dues. But, not all sellers/brokers are going to think about an offer the same way, so who knows. Never hurts to make an offer - worst that can't happen is they say no.

This is my stance too, at the time I was kind of hoping to be rejected or I should say, scared of the offer being accepted Thats when you know you have the disease, addonitis
