Mystiq Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 I am hoping you can help with a bidding strategy, I need 1 room for 7/7 - 7/10 and 2 rooms for 7/7 - 7/12Prefferred is MTW with a max of $180 (I hope this will be enough)I think I need to bid the 3 rooms for the 3 nights together and then 2 rooms separately for the remaining 2 nights with the possiblilty of having to change hotels.I am familiar with the 2 free rebid zones UES and UWS and I have booked a backup hotel.I have been reading these posts and I have not seen anything come up about MTW with those dates.thanx Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!You have two re-bid zones available at the 4* level. 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.I would start with the following:Select 4* MTW...Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $110, close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW and re-bid zone2...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $120.If you want everyone to stay at the same hotel i would bid:3 rooms for 7/7-7/102 rooms for 7/10-7/12Any questions feel free to ask.

Mystiq Posted May 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Tried your strategy, even making my last bid $125 but no luck. I await further instructions. Thanx Link to comment
Mystiq Posted June 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 If you could suggest another strategy I'm ready to rebid. thanx Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Still MTW only? If so i would try the following:Select 4* MTW...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $130, close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW and re-bid zone2...Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $140.If that fails i would seriously consider adding MTE and/or UM/CPS to your acceptable zones as summer in the city shouldn't be that expensive... but it's your money and you know what you want/expect from your vacation.Let us know how it goes.
