lovetotravel Posted March 1, 2005 Author Report Posted March 1, 2005 Rejected at $120. I began and $80 and rebid all my free bids up to $120 and they were all rejected. Do you think I should wait three days and try again or just go ahead and book directly with the hotel?
thereuare Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 If the Venetian's rate is refundable i would book it just to 'protect' yourself.In 72 hours i would bid as follows:Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $99, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $102, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130.I would not bid more than that at this time. I would continue to bid the above until 10-14 days before your stay. I do think you'll ultmately have success with the above, but make sure you book a refundable rate just to make sure you don't get locked out.Keep us updated.
