Ok so here is the long story.

I have been trying a PL bid for about 2+ weeks now. I have bid in the 70 to 110 range for resorts down to 3.5 stars and pretty much all were rejected. I was hoping to do 5/3 to 5/6 but would settle for a break up of the trip in two parts and do 5/3 to 5/5 and then 5/6 separately since Sat night stay is more expensive. And again all these options were rejected. Until...

today I bid 90$ for 3.5* 5/3 to 5/5 for Palm Springs area. (I thought I might get the Hyatt which a few days ago was as low as $126 on the Hyatt website but went up today) Got a counter for 135. Rejected and then bid 100 and added Rancho Mirage - Indian Wells area. And was pleasantly surprised to get La Quinta Resort (regular price is 199 on their website). An offer was made to extend the stay but it came back and said no availability. I will see if I can get a different place for 5/6 next.

used the PRICELINE link from the your page.

Cheers.
