samwise777 Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 First Post - probably wishful thinking with the current rates but wanted to give it a go anyway. From what I have read can I get some confirmation that this bidding strategy would work? 7May-10May Thanks!

samwise777 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Just to clarify, I have checked the rebid categories and for my own information have put their maximum star rating in brackets - eg/ Richmond (max. 2* hotels) Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Welcome to BetterBidding! Yes, your bidding strategy seems valid (NOTE: anyone following along this thread in the future, doublecheck the re-bid zones as they may have changed since this thread was posted), but i agree that based upon current rates it would appear that a win in any of these zones at $140 or less would seem like a low probability bet. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

samwise777 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Thanks, Bidding failed (as expected), though I went to $160 for both 4* and 3.5* I ended up booking alternative arrangements for slightly cheaper than $160 Hopefully I have better luck bidding for NY Thread can be closed Link to comment
