hootio Posted July 28, 2011 Report Posted July 28, 2011 First off, thanks again for all the tips and information posted on this site by all the members and administrators. Of course, I used the Priceline link on this site and won the following:4* Hilton Dublin3 Nights (Oct 2-5th, 2011)7/18/2011 - $65 Rejected7/19/2011 - $70 Rejected 7/20/2011 - $71 Rejected7/21/2011 - $72 Rejected7/22/2011 - $73 Rejected 7/23/2011 - $74 Rejected 7/25/2011 - $75 Rejected 7/26/2011 - $77 Rejected 7/28/2011 - $77 Success!Market Price: $160/nightSeeing as my previously rejected bid of $77 (with no counter offers) was exactly the same as my winning bid...it might be the case that some rooms have been just put up on the PRICELINE block for Dublin? Either way, patience and persistance seems to pay off.
thereuare Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 Congratulations on your success!Glad to see you were successful and not too far from where you originally started bidding.While it's possible that lower priced inventory was recently added, my guess is that that 'right' price was somewhere around this area the entire time and your probably hit a slightly stronger dollar on 7/28 vs. when you bid on 7/26, and the marginal difference was enough to push you over the top.Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.Enjoy your stay.
