nanbawan Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Offer Price: $170.00Rooms: 1Nights: 2Room Subtotal:$340.00Taxes: $59.76Fees: $17.62Total Charged to Card: $417.38In late September I was trying every day:MTE 4* because I wanted to try to get the Grand Hyatt.I started at $140, for MTE then I would add Central Park South, Empire State Building, MTW, and Times Square because these were acceptable as well. With about 5 rebids, I would go up in $5 increments to about $165. I wasn't getting anything, so I started upping my starting bid and by early October I was starting at $170 going up to $195 for a 4* and starting at $150 going up to $175 for a 3.5* and not winning anything.I hadn't bid in a few days, and I just started at $170 because it looked like anything lower was a waste of a bid, and on the first bid I won the W. I wish I had started lower, but the going rate is over $300/night on my nights for this hotel, so I got a great deal.I used the PRICELINE link above. Thanks for the great info! Link to comment
