$800 annual fee is steep.

As always see if the credits will cover it or more and if so, its a keeper card.

If you have to go out of your way to use enough credits to cover the annual fee, then not worth it probably

Personally I can easily find $900/yr of value from all that. $300 of travel credit for anything (no strings attached, very easy to use. $300 of restaurant credit, we go to a few restaurants on their list already around the ATL area. $300 in stubhub, we use it a few times a year for concert/sports tickets already. There's $900 right there already for me. I would assign no value to anything else up there as we either already have something covering that or dont use it. We dont have lounge access now and would definitely use that though, again since i dont use it now wouldnt assign a value to it. Same with AppleTV+ credit, would redeem it but assign no value to that since we dont have it now.

When you factor in 150k point SUB, thats worth AT LEAST $1,500 when redeemed for cash back; if you are a hunter for airline/hotel transfers, could be worth double that easily ($3,000 of value isnt out of the question there at all).

I'm trying to get this one now. I bought 2 tickets to a Yankees game a week from now for $150 total and immediately re-listed them for $130 (I'd get $94 after fees). I don't live anywhere near NY but figured they would sell. Haven't sold yet.

I'd be up for creating a TD ponzi scheme where we all buy and sell each other's tickets to collect the stubhub credits

I don’t mind putting a little effort in, but it’s really a pita. I don’t have any restaurants close to me nor hotels. So I gotta go out of my way to plan that.

Unless I’m getting 2 for 1 fairly easily, I’m not interested in spending $800 to save $200. It really isn’t worth the hassle

I need to check and see if my 5yrs is up since I last had the Reserve...

Looks like a good churn and burn card.
