thereuare Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Welcome to BetterBidding.I'll assume you know about RE-BIDDING, but if not read that link and feel free to ask any question you may have. I count 4 re-bid zones for this star level in the area, so you will have a chance to place 5 bids before needing to wait 72 hours before placing another bid. (i would NOT use the Cambridge area as a re-bid zone, as it is yet undetermined if a Boutique hotel can be upgraded to a 4* or not)This is how i would proceed....Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $90My guess is that you're most likely to have success at the $80 or $85 level, but you have the re-bids available and the lower prices are not unheard of, so might as well give them a try.If this is more than you wanted to spend then post back and i'll adjust the strategy somewhat. If you're new to Priceline, feel free to post here to confirm your re-bid zones or ask any add'l questions you may have.If you find this site helpful, please consider startng your bid at SavingsBarn.com Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
