chrispy critter Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hi! This is my first post so I hope i include all that you need. Looking for 4*hotel in new york city , mtw preferred but mte and umcp also ok. Would like to spend no more than $260/ night. Any suggestions? Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!At the 4* level you have two re-bid zones, if you're not familiar with re-bidding please read RE-BIDDING EXPLAINED and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board.Select 4* MTE...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $185, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $185, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* UM/CPS...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $185, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and MTW...Bid $195, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $205, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $210, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and UM/CPS...Bid $195, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $205, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $210, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW and MTE and UM/CPS...Bid $215, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $220, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $225.The above may prove to be too low for this extended stay, but i would try the above lowball since you have time on your side. If unsuccessful, would you want to try to SPLIT YOUR BID before increasing to your limit?Any questions feel free to ask.

chrispy critter Posted September 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 After several attempts at bidding i finally got 3*Club Quarters Midtown for $250/night. Price a little high but i got MTW which was my first choice and I did not have to split my stay. Thanks for the help! Link to comment
thereuare Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 Do you recall the amount of your previously rejected bid which included this zone?What strategy did you emply when switching for 4* to 3*?Enjoy your stay.
