Frank S Posted April 30, 2010 Report Posted April 30, 2010 Started at $50 4* Downtown Portland - denied, went to $55 added an adjacent area without a 4* -denied, went to $61 and added a 3 1/2* accepted, first time bidding on PRICELINE, happy with the results, though next time I will know how play the game better, I am sure I could have gotten it for a few dollars less, also bid on a car through PRICELINE - seven day rental through Avis for a compact car, started at $11, next day $12, next day won bid for $13, out the door price with tax from PDX $138, approximately $40 less than the best rate on the standard travel sites.I was very skeptical about the whole PRICELINE thing with some of the horror stories you hear about them, but as I read the some of the stories on the net and compared it to the information provided by Better Bidding I releazied that some of these people had no idea what they were doing, follow the strategies laid out on Better Bidding and you will do well, remember, be flexible, thank you Better Bidding............P.S. I my haste to get on with things I forgot to link to PRICELINE through Better Bidding, the next time. and there will be a next time, I will definetely go through the Better Bidding site, sorry
