tjlamphere Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 First time bidder...I tried bidding, but my price was not accepted. I rebid, by increasing my price, but the page said that I had to change at least one of my criteria.How do you rebid to a higher price, but leave all of the criteria the same??? Link to comment

tjlamphere Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 I rebid 4 separate times, adding different zones without 4* hotels each time...increased my bid by $ 10 each time, up to a bid of $ 140...still not accepted.Weekend of June 18 - 20. Do you recommend that I keep trying a few times a week? Is there a chance that a bid not accepted one week will be accepted the following week or two later, as I get closer to the date?Any other rebid strategies ??? :) Link to comment
