First time bidding on Priceline, wanted 4* Bellevue area Aug 4-5 and work from $70 with $5 increment, adding zone each time that only has up to 3.5*. Opened 2 browser windows and check stars hotels in each zone. Worked up to $90 with $3 increment and ended $101 no successful bidding. Just to share my 2cents for 1st time bidding.
