Priceline Hotel: Is it too early for a good price for Novemember in Philly?

Just a quick question,

I have noticed quite a few very good priced 3.5* & 4* results for downtown Philly recently, but nothing beyond September.

I have been trying to get a 3 night stay arranged in (preferably) 4* downtown Philadelphia (fortunately there are multiple re-bid opportunities for 4*). Anyway, I have been having no luck bidding from $95 to $120 in $5 increments, and looking at the median price, which Priceline sometimes shows, this is in the $240-$300 range (changes daily)

I was wondering if I am really bidding too early, and I might get better results leaving it, and bidding say in September or even October, hopefully to get the nice $90 or so prices that have been posted recently for 4* downtown Philadelphia.

Thanks,

Kevin.

Time may be a contributing factor, but there is also a Monday nite Football game which is likely also contributing to the higher rates for these dates (at many of the hotels i'm looking at, Sunday and Monday nites are more expensive then Saturday nite).

If you do choose to wait and hope for lower prices in the weeks ahead, i would book a fully refundable back-up reservation in the meantime to protect yourself from rates moving higher from here and/or selling out. With PRICELINE suggesting retails rates in the mid-$200's-$300's, what is the best rate you're able to find at an acceptable hotel thru traditional booking channels?
