TZMOM Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hello again -I'm looking for a place in Amsterdam Jan. 2-4, 2012 - will be my son & myself. It looks as if most places listed are in the Museum Quarter - so that's just fine. I'm ready to bid now (since vacation isn't until the end of the year, I'm a bit anxious - gives me something to look forward to.) Of course, I'd like to spend as little as possible, but will say $70.00 to $100.00 would be my budget (even less if I can get away with it! :))Thanks for the help!!TZ Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 When bidding 4* in Amsterdam you have ONE re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* Museum Quarter...Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $70Repeat the above, increase by $5 every 24 hours for the next 3 days (which should take you to your $100 limit)Any questions feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.
