Totally dig the last 3.... I was under the impression that Packs were 100% gone and it is basically just a neat looking charge card with low AF.....
I can't remember the last time my Zync had packs. It's been a very long time since they were discontinued. To answer the OP's question, I keep my Zync because I don't want to pay $95 for the Green when I can have a similar card for $25 when I dump the Platinum. It is a very unique card, and I plan on keeping mine until AmEx says otherwise.
Lastly, my Zync has a higher exposure limit than any card in my portfolio. While I don't plan on utilizing its 40k-50k+ charging ability anytime soon, I still like having it around.
