Hidden way to buy gold at 55% valueback

Can we buy malbar gold coin using Amex Multiplier ? Anyone tried and received multiplier points ?

So As of now, if its eligible, we can get 5x on gold card + 12000 worth voucher for spends of 2 lakh

nice deal if one want to buy gold ?

What about such pendants ? Now a days, its a small loophole in amazon, by selling pendants inplace of coins
aware of the loophole on amazon but on Malabar website, these pendants are listed under Gold Coins catalogue so I dont think we would be getting benefit of reward multiplier
 
Been ordering gold since january/feb , started with monthly earning of 60k/month/card.

From april it went upto 85k/month/card till july due to myntra.

Overall i believe i have ordered gold roughly worth 8L/Card. Have around 5 Cards.
Have you ever done any rough analysis like how much you lost in rupees, eg difference between gold buy/sell price and since Myntra was anyway on the costly side on top of gold buying price. As well as the appreciation of that money had been put into equity or fd instead of gold. Considering the gold price in the time when this trick worked. If you do, then how much would you say was ur per airmile cost?

I didn't do the exact calculations but i can share you a rough estimation on which it worked.

Myntra gold costed roughly 32k for 5gms which also gave me 1k super coins.

The 1k supercoins helped compensate for GST and roughly at worst case i had to bear a loss of further 2k at the gold.

So basically it was roughly 7.5k every 1lakh at worst case.

I earned 85000 points for the 7.5k loss which can be converted to 68000 miles. So it was roughly 11p/mile which i converted majorly to accor using which iphone can be ordered at some locations and which in return gave cash value of almost 90%.

When you are dealing in volumes 5-10% here and there is fine , considering the benefit was huge i didnt care much about minor variations of pricing at myntra.

Luckily at times due to competition between kalyan and bangalore refinery i did get good pricing for gold coins too.
