Flying Buccaneer Posted July 15, 2005 Report Posted July 15, 2005 Started with a $25 bid for a 2.5* hotel in the South-Airport zone, and received a counteroffer for $31. Added Sparks and raised bid to $28, which was rejected. Then I was taken to PL's site for the shop and compare hotel service (very annoying because there doesn't appear to go back to your "name your own price" bid to add zones/change star levels). So I started over and added Reno and raised the bid to $30. It was accepted and I was upgraded to a 3* hotel.
thereuare Posted July 15, 2005 Report Posted July 15, 2005 Congratulations on your win and thanks for sharing.I do question often much the typical 'opaque' customer converts to a 'shop and compare' customer... but they certainly are pushing hard in that direction.Enjoy your stay.
