Lucasorb Posted May 23, 2012 Report Posted May 23, 2012 Hi, I am new to priceline and would like to place a bid for 3.5* or 4* Fishermans Wharf or Union Square East/West. Yesterday I tried a few rebids only for 4* and went up to 130$. Is that way to low? Any suggestions how to proceed? Thank you! Lucas
AaronJB Posted May 23, 2012 Report Posted May 23, 2012 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)Please provide the date/s of travel and desired budget per night for this stay.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
Lucasorb Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Posted May 25, 2012 Desired budget is max 150$ per night, tax included. Date is only one night 7/18 to 7/19. Thank you!
thereuare Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 It's not way too low but obviously at the moment it's not enough for a 4* hotel in these zones for this nite.My guess is that you're not too far off and likely looking at $140-$160 bid price for a 4* hotel in one of these zones... do you want to increase your bid price, wait it out and hope for lower 4* prices in the weeks ahead, or keep your maximum bid the same and try for a 3.5* property?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know your thoughts, and any additional questions, and we'll take it from there.

Lucasorb Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Posted May 26, 2012 I think I would go ahead with a 3.5* then. Any idea about with how much to start? Thanks again!
