I can't keep points in the bank long enough is my problem so applying for a card just because it's a good sign up has not been an issue.
This will start to be my issue now that I've abused Chase almost as much as humanly possible.
I do think its better to actually have a use for the Platinum, even if the 100k is worth more than the fee. Figure if I'm going to get so many benefits in year 1, I'm gonna use them all!
Now where is my 100k offer? I think I had one 6 months ago or so.

For the previous poster who asked, the heading of the invitation says "THE PLATINUM CARD FROM AMERICAN EXPRESS" and I don't see anything anywhere else that mentions it being a business card. Looks like it's the personal version.
And to Teddy's point, I've made the decision to pass, as tempting as it is. Before getting this invitation, I had no intention of getting another card for another nine months, and that was going to be a Chase Ink Plus to replace my then year old Bold. If I apply for the Amex, I'm running dangerously close to grabbing the credit card tiger by the tail, and that's something that I simply won't allow to happen.
My travel and spending habits don't currently justify the fee, so I'm not going to apply for it, no matter the welcome bonus.

What the hell do I have to do to get the offer?

I don't know if you pass it up if they'll offer it again, no? They have a time limit on them, right?
