Hotliner Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Based on my reading of this forum I expected a winning bid of somewhere between $93 and $120. So I bid several times starting at $80 and incrementing by $5 each time:Round 1:1st Bid (Wailea-Makena): $80 Rejected2nd Bid (+Kihei): $85 Rejected3rd Bid (+Kahului): $90 RejectedRound 2:1st Bid (Wailea-Makena): $95 Rejected2nd Bid (+Kihei): $100 Rejected3rd Bid (+Kahului): $105 RejectedRound 3:1st Bid (Wailea-Makena): $110 (Priceline countered with asking me to bid $130) *2nd Bid (+Kihei): $117 Winning Bid* When I reached $110, Priceline offered me the opportunity to rebid at $130. Based on my past experiences with Priceline I used a free rebid (by adding another zone) and upped my price by 1/3 of the extra $20 they suggested - to $117 and it was accepted. So maybe $117 is the new $120.Thanks BetterBidding for giving me the pricing information to save time and money when using Priceline / Hotwire. Link to comment
