Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Vancouver (Airport YVR) Delta Airport

[samwong]

At 3.5 stars, free rebids - 3 zones: Cityhall, Langley, North Vancouver

Started off at $58 and worked up towards $68/-. At bid $58 was asked to top-up $15, at $61 was asked to top-up $15, at $65 was asked to top-up $17.

Ignore all top-up requests, but am curious on how to figure out the right bid when we are asked to top-up. Any advice?

Congratulations on your success!

Nicely done. There is no set rule for how much to bid when you receive a counter-offer, as a lot has to depend upon whether or not you have re-bid zones available, amount of time before your stay, etc... but the general rule of thumb is to cut the time price difference in half. For more info see this Priceline Suggests Price to Pay thread.
