Started at $65 for 4*... no go...dropped bid to $57 and added 3 star and got the DoubleTree

Yes, either this weekend (Oct 3-5) or next weekend (Oct 10-12).

Hello,

I need help identifying a 2.5* hotel in Downtown Vancouver Entertainment District with the following amenities:

Restauraunt

High speed internet access

The price is $69, so I would also like to know if this is worth taking or if I should try to bid for something lower on PriceLine.

Thanks,

Imran

Yeah, that's my fault. I didn't realize how HOTWIRE worked in that you had to jump on the deal right away. For some reason I thought it was the same as Priceline where you put in a bid. Now I know, so hopefully that deal comes up again. Thanks for all your help, if nothing I got some good re-bid zone practice out of it.

I am sorry to say I tried the following bidding and was not succesful on PriceLine:

Use this link to get to PRICELINE

4* Downtown Vancouver - $72.

add re-bid zone - $75.

add re-bid zone - $80.

add re-bid zone - $85.

add re-bid zone - $90.

add re-bid zone - $95.

Perhaps I will try again another day and it will work out.

Thanks for all of your assitance. I really like the re-bid zone concept.

Thanks again for the tips. I haven't got a chance to try the bid yet since I'm at work. However, I will definitely try once I am off of work.

I think I understand the concept of the re-bid zone. My understanding is that I should add a new zone that does not have a 4* hotel in it after each unsuccesful bid. Is that correct?

Thanks,

Thanks for the quick response. The max bid I would hope for is $100.

This is my first time posting here. I was hoping to book a 3 or 4* hotel in downtown Vancouver the weekend of October 3rd to October 5th 2008.

Any suggestions of where to get started or a good strategy to pursue to get the lowest possible bid? My thought was to start at $80 and work my way up, but I'm not sure if this would be effective.

Thanks
