xxitzeugenexx1 Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Hey guys, Ive been scouting this forum for hours reading up on how to bid and tips.I think i got the bidding down but i just need to verify with you guys so i dont blow my $$.Venetian is located on the North strip, my max bid would be 150so I would check North strip, bid $100 and raise my bidding increments to $5 whilst checking the zones that dont have 5* (ex: boulder, fremont, hudson, etc)Also is there any other hotel that i might win, was only hoping for palazzo or venetian. Thanks for your help, much appreciated!
xxitzeugenexx1 Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Posted October 17, 2011 I went from 100 - 190 and priceline gave me a room at the wynn, kinda dissapointed.... I was hoping for venetian. How big is the wynn room???
AaronJB Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Congrats on your success and Welcome to Betterbidding. :)Happy (early) Birthday! Sorry to hear you got the Wynn, although certainly an excellent deal with the hotel going for $409 on Expedia. According to the hotel website, the regular rooms are 640 sq ft.Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.Enjoy your stay.
xxitzeugenexx1 Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Posted October 17, 2011 thanks for the reply aaron!!! Do you think by any chance I could be able to upgrade the room once i get to the front desk? any tips or advice on that??
AaronJB Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 You can call in advance and politely ask if/what upgrades are available. You could also wait until check-in and ask at check-in. Some have used the "$20 Trick" discussed in this Hotwire Las Vegas thread.
xxitzeugenexx1 Posted October 18, 2011 Author Report Posted October 18, 2011 Wsup fellow bidders! I just got an email update stating that someone has won bidding for one of the rooms @ 5* North stripamenities: Remote Control TV with Premium Channels Telephone with Voicemail Radio Alarm Clock Iron and Ironing Board Hairdryer Business Services 24 Hour Front Desk Full Service Restaurant Extended Hour Room Serivice Bellman Concierge Fitness Center Access Bathrobes Twice Daily Maid Service Upgraded linens Upgraded Bath AmenitiesIm guessing this is the venetian?? please help verify.
thereuare Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 There i no telling what 5* property was won, and keep in mind that the this was not necessarily for the same dates as your own (more then likely it was for a different set of dates) so the price of this win, whatever it may be, may have very little to what was needed for your own dates. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
