ctaylor45 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 hey guys,I will be going to Vegas, looking to check in July 3, and checking out July 5. I'd like to stay either at the Venetian, Palazzo, or Wynn, and not Trump. I ran a search on hotwire, and a 5* is showing for 176 a night, and it looks like it could be one of the ones I want. I was wondering, if I were to bid through priceline, what strategy should I use and prices? I'd rather not book the Trump, but I know it cant be avoided, but Im willing to take the risk if I can book a 5* for lower than 176 a night. Any advice would be great! Thank you. Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 As long as you're willing to accept the Trump you can bid as follows:At the 5* level you have EIGHT re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.(NOTE: 're-bid zone1' is not the same as priceline's Zone1, 're-bid zone2' is not the same as priceline's Zone2, etc, etc)Select 5* North Strip...Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone2...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone3...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone4...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone5...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone6...Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone7...Bid $135, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 5* North Strip and re-bid zone8...Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $145, if rejected add re-bid zone2...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone3...Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone4...Bid $160, if rejected add re-bid zone5...Bid $165, if rejected add re-bid zone6...Bid $170, if rejected add re-bid zone7...Bid $175Any questions feel free to ask.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.
