express deal and bidding rate

[merlin666]

I assume that the price on express deals is meant to be used as  guideline to a realistic bid on name your price. So for example if the lowest 4* in the target area has a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal rate of $100, what is a typicl percentage below that has a chance to win at a "best deal" level?

Please provide a follow-up for your prior Montreal Priceline thread (post what you decided for that stay within that thread, then reply to this thread and we would be happy to take a look at the above post.)

The Montreal search so far is not going well, just waiting 24h for my next try.

I also am curious to know this

There is no 'fixed' percentage as each area is different... we have seen bids rejected at the same price as the PRICELINE EXPRESS deal in the area as well as seen wins as much as 50% less (although this is uncommon)

If you need help with an upcoming stay please start a NEW TOPIC in the appropriate category on the board and somebody will assist you there.
