Congratulations on your success and Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

Certainly a terrific rate for the Trump!

Can you confirm that you bid for the Strip North area, or for the Strip North Vicinity area?

Thank you for sharing your result with the board and please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Enjoy your stay.

Gah, I'm new to betterbidding and can't find the edit button. But yes, it was Strip North (accidentally added the question mark).

[AaronJB]

Not sure as to why this property appeared as a win in the Strip North area, when it falls within the Strip North Vicinity zone.

[beachbum45]

Yeah I'm not sure, but I expected it. After looking at all the strip north 5* for priceline on betterbidding, it's either Trump, Venetian, Palazzo, or Wynn.

beachbum45,

If you view your winning bid confirmation page (also accessible thru the MY PROFILE >> MY TRIPS link on the top right corner of PRICELINE's website)... below the hotel's name and above the hotel's address, dose it show "Strip North" or "Strip North Vicinity. As the two zones have almost identical names, and are listed on top of one another in the zone list for this area, it wouldn't surprise me if you accidentally clicked the "Vicinity" zone instead of the "North Strip" zone... we've seen it happen before and i'm sure we'll see it again.

Please confirm.

Thanks.

Hi Everyone

I checked on my friend's account (who was the person who won the hotel) and you were correct that the mistakenly selected 'strip north vicinity'.

Lesson learned! We're still content with the Trump, but now we know for next time! Don't make the same mistake!! :)

sorry for the confusion

Thank you for the follow-up.
