yellowdog Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 Welcometo BetterBidding :) Congratulations to your honeymoon!does anyone knows what going on in vegas on that weekend?There's a major boxing fight 9/14 at MGM i already made an offer of 100$ for 5* hotel in the northern/sothern strip which didn't accepted....there is a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal for 5 Star Hotel in Las Vegas Strip North Area for 205$ (plus 10% coupon dicount) - does it looks like a good deal?I think you can do better. You should at least try. If you would like to get help with a bidding strategy so please post your budget/night before tax/fees, zone(s) you're willing to stay in and the star rating for the hotel.Let us know and we'll go from there.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches.Yellowdog.
tomlevin Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Posted August 14, 2013 Thank you for the welcome greetings....i guess i am flexible with the exact location as long as it would be on a nice centeral place on the strip - and it looks like it's really hard to control the location with priceline areas...i would say my price limit for a really nice hotel would be around 130-140$ before taxes but i am hoping to find a better deal.Thanks alot
yellowdog Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 i guess i am flexible with the exact location as long as it would be on a nice centeral place on the strip - and it looks like it's really hard to control the location with priceline areas...We need to know what zones to include in your bidding strategy. So you're OK with both North And South zone? Please look at the PRICELINE maps to determ this.i would say my price limit for a really nice hotel would be around 130-140$ before taxes but i am hoping to find a better deal.I don't think a 5* will not cut it with this budget. So you're OK with a 4*?Yellowdog.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches.
tomlevin Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Posted August 14, 2013 i am willing to stretch my budget in order to get a 5* hotel (i already found Trump hotel for about 180$ incl. all taxes) so let's say i am willing to pay up to 190$ without taxes for a better hotel.regarding the location - both south and north zones are ok as long as their on the strip.
