Second attempt to bid on a 5* hotel in Hong Kong failed.

I did use the link provided to start my attempts!

August 8th
Tried 5* TST @ 110$ and failed
added WHKI @ 115$ and failed
added EHKI @ 110$ and failed again

August 9th
Tried 5* TST @ 119$ and failed
added WHKI @ 120$ and failed
added EHKI @ 121$ and failed again

I would appreciate The Mira in TST!!!

Thanks for your assistance!

Please provide an update for your Priceline NYC thread.

What would be your desired max budget per night for this stay?

Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

my maximum budget would be 140$ for a 5* property

To confirm you're looking for a 5* in either the Tsim Sha Tsui or West Hong Kong Island zones and are using East Hong Kong Island as a re-bid zone? If this is the case you still have TWO other re-bid zones at the 5* level which you don't appear to be using.

Am i correct on the two zone you're seeking a 5* hotel and using the other as a re-bid zones? Are you familiar with re-bidding (Priceline Re-Bidding Explained) and/or is there a reason you're not using your other re-bid zones?

Yes, I am looking for a hotel in either TST, CK or WHKI.

I looking at your tip about re-bidding right now.

Thank you so much for your assistance - I used to use PRICELINE only in a very basic way and MUST change that!

Have you included Central Kowloon in your previous bidding, as you didn't mention it above.

Thank you so much for your assistance - I really appreciate it.

Yes, I indeed included Central Kowloon.

Tried with free re-bid-zones yesterday and tonight and went up to 133$ - still without luck...

too bad!

But I started my bids through your PRICELINE link!

[thereuare]

So why not bid up to your maximum $140 rate (or have you increased this given your current rejections) on the next round and if that is rejected we'll weigh your options from there.

Hello again!

I still focus 5* with no luck up to 145$.

Now I'm willing to go with 4* and the obvious Courtyard (which is awesome at the given prices).
But as well with that I had no luck yet up to 73$.

I will go up further within the next period.

Thanks for your assistance.

And I will use the reference link to begin with!
