Welcome to BetterBidding. As Aaron already stated, hotels determine their nightly Priceline rate based on available inventory, hence the theory of supply & demand.Since you had 6 free rebid opportunities, you could have worked your way up from $100 and possibly "hit" a price point less than $120. If you're unfamiliar with how the free rebid system works, check out this link and feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Thank you BEAV. I did not know about the 24hr re-bid change and the 6 free rebid. I always thought it was 72hr & 3 free rebids but have read up on the new rules and now I'm aware. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
1st bid for 4* in Financial district/Embarcadero was $95 and not accepted. 2nd bid for $100 not accepted. 3rd bid for $120 accepted for Hyatt Regency Embarcadero.
I was sure $100 would be accepted at the Hyatt since folks were getting that already. I didn't want to risk going to $105 or $110 since it was my last try. Anyone know why?
4* Toronto (Downtown North) Sutton Place
