krlbrgmnn Posted May 30, 2012 Report Posted May 30, 2012 Marriott Franklin Cool Springs 700 Cool Springs BoulevardFranklin, TN 37067 Comps: HW has no 3* in this zone for these dates. Closest zone is Airport @ $68; not interested. Brentwood 2.5* @ $66; Antioch 2.5* @ $53. Marriott's website: $139/nt weekends special is cheapest (thus, this PL = 56% savings).Bid history:Tried bidding for the Franklin zone on Mon, 5/28, for two rooms. Failed with +$2 rebids through Brentwood and all remaining available free zones (excl. Downtown, Airport, Goodletsville, Hendersonville, Opryland). Retried again today starting @ $53; rebids @ +$2 in same zone pattern up through $61, which was this win. FYI, separately won a $60/nt @ same hotel for June 3; failed $59 starting bid; I did this just to test the waters and see if any extra buck could be shaved off my prior success minutes before. FYI2: Today, after my initial failed first bid for the two rooms, PL countered immediately with a "no-factor change" free rebid offer, if I'd increase my offer +$15 to $68. I declined, as I know these usually are worthless, as they're typically higher than the true "bottom"; saved $14 ($7x2) thereby. PL also did the same thing (+$10 -> $69) after my first failed ($59) bid today for the single June 3 room, which I also declined, leading to a $9 savings.I used BB's PRICELINE link to start my bidding/purchase. Please do the same.
