Reader rehana asked the following question in the inquire of Lucky forum:"I believe seen quite a few offers allowing you to purchase a higher status in many hotel chains? How is this done and is it legal? I believe seen a lot of hhnors in particular. Has anyone has any experience with this?"It's not unusual to see airline or hotel status for sale on Ebay,Craigslist, etc. For example, and at the moment there's even more opportunities than normal to purchase Hilton Diamond status on Ebay,mostly for under $100.To start, I should say that buying airline or hotel status isn't illegal. However, and much like selling miles,it violates the terms & conditions of just about any loyalty program.
