Bid History: I was bidding on a 2.5 star hotel in East Lansing/Okemos. I had started the bidding at $40 about three weeks ago, and I have added $5 to a new bid every 3 or 4 days till I got to a $65 bid earlier today. Priceline rejected my $65 bid, but the rejection reported that if I added $17 to my $65 bid I could resubmit a new bid today (rather than waiting the mandatory 3 days). I did, and got the following "upgraded" hotel: Congratulations, you got your price of $82 for a hotel room, and we've upgraded your hotel quality level to a 3-star hotel!
