Dewi Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Hello, In your educated guesstimate is it better to bid when I am closer to the date I'm traveling then further in advance (for July) as I'm currently doing and not having sucess.I'm trying to bid on the same area (Boston downtown/ Faneuil hall historic district), my hotel dates needed is July 21-24 . I'm going to a conference and cannot risk getting a hotel too far away so I don't want to a bid in any other area in Boston. How do you think i should proceed.thanks Link to comment
