Rob-the-Top Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 It's my first time using priceline. I have read all the instructions. Now i am looking for a 5 star hotel on the strip for three nights ( 5/21/12 - 5/24/12 / one room). My first choice is the north strip, second choice the south strip. Price range up to $ 150,00 for a night. Im not sure what price range i should start bidding. Please help guide me in the right direction. Thank you!Rob
thereuare Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Welcome to BetterBidding!Are you willing to pay more to stay in the Strip North zone vs. the Strip South zone OR is your goal the least expensive 5* in either zone?Please confirm and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Rob-the-Top Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 I would pay more to stay in the north strip. But if the south strip is a sight cheaper, it would be ok for me too.I'm curious about the "strategy"Thanks again!Rob
thereuare Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 I would pay more to stay in the north strip. But if the south strip is a sight cheaper, it would be ok for me too.Still trying to figure out how you would like to proceed as the above doesn't really tell us your preference and if you'd like to only target the Strip North zone up to your limit OR if lower price prevails and the least expensive of the two zones is your ultimate goal.To make it easier, which of the two would you like to try first:1) try for a 5* hotel in the Strip North zone up to your limit (or some other amount), if rejected then try for the Strip South zone tooOR2) the least expensive 5* hotel in either the Strip North or Strip South zoneLet us know your preference and we'll advise accordingly.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Thanks.

Rob-the-Top Posted March 31, 2012 Author Report Posted March 31, 2012 Your first description is the way i want to go. Try the north strip up to $ 150,00 and if it doesn't work then the south strip up to $ 150,00.Thanks.Rob
