mmalor Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 As the title states, I just won The Strand Hotel for 4 nights starting August 28th.I'm happy that they have complimentary internet. It's cheaper to skype home that to use my cell phone!I used a technique similar to this one :Select 4* MTE, MTW, CPS, ESB and TS...Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $160, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $165, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $170, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $180On another post, it was mentioned that there are 5 rebid zones at the 4* level :Coney IslandLong IslandMadison Square GardenQueensborough Bridge Upper East Side I was skeptical about Coney Island, since when I added it to my list the median price of 4* hotels in the selected area went down.For others looking to use these rebid zones, can anyone confirm that there are still no 4* in Coney Island?I used the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links for my searches.Thanks for all the info BetterBidding!
AaronJB Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 Congrats on your success. :)Awesome deal for this rarely-seen property. If you select a zone and the 4* level is unavailable, then that area does not have 4* bidding available.Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE link.Enjoy your stay.
