Sam15 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 Looking for help bidding on 4* Vancouver Downtown for four nights beginning August 11. No luck so far bidding up to $90, however other users seem to have landed $76/night on nearby dates.Any assistance with strategy much appreciated. Thanks.
thereuare Posted August 1, 2010 Report Posted August 1, 2010 Welcome to BetterBidding!Rates are dates speicific and you can't always duplicate another user's win when their dates are different then your own. (or even if the dates are the same if the supply/demand factors has changed since the other user's purchase)What is your maximum bid for this stay?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... please click this PRICELINE link before replying.

Sam15 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Posted August 2, 2010 I'd like to keep it to $90/night if possible. Thanks.
thereuare Posted August 3, 2010 Report Posted August 3, 2010 If you've bid up to $90 and that was not accepted, and you're not willing to add another zone, lower your star rating, or raise your maximum bid, then there is not much more you can do other then wait it out and try again and hope for lower rates in the week ahead.I will add that i do think you're close, another $10-$20 may be the difference between success/failure, but if you're not willing to raise your bid, then you'll just need to keep trying every 24 hours using your current $90 limit.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Keep us updated and let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.
