Interesting stuff I saw today!

So today I was working at a client, it's a jewelry that sells high end watches. I saw first hand the 2 highest purchases I ever seen on a credit card....

First one was for 32k on an AMEX Gold, it went through in less then 3secs, the second one was a whopping 120k on a AMEX Centurion! No problem going through either....kinda cool but also realized that none of my cards would be able to run that....Smiley Embarassed  Maybe my BCP on a very good day! lol

 

WALLET: Amex BCP 25K | Barclay Arrival Plus 27K | Chase Reserve 20K |
Amex SimplyCash 50K

Wow.. $120k on a Centurion.  What did he buy?  A watch with a house in it? lol  All of my cards combine wouldn't even go that high. Smiley Embarassed  Anywho, saw and hold a Centurion card once and that thing was really heavy!

6 figure watches aren't that hard to find and, no, they include a house.

If you can buy a house w/ a single swipe transaction on Centurion....wow i'm just wondering how many MR points can you get from it?  Is there like a 100x MR points per every house purchase or something?  It would be cool if they did lol
