ElPal Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 Hi, I wanted to report this wonderful win to the board (always using your links for research and bidding). I saw a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal for US$236 which I was pretty sure from previous experience was for the Westin Palace. However, my sister didn't want to spend over A$220 per night total (including fees) for the stay so I thought I'd bid. I still bid in USD.. I started ridiculously low and worked up in increments closing out and going back via your link and adding free rebid zones on each occasion: 135USD - rejected140USD - rejected145USD - rejected with counter offer of $182 given149USD - rejected with counter offer of $182 given153USD - rejected with counter offer of $182 given155USD - rejected with counter offer of $182 given157USD - SUCCESS! The total paid is about a 43% save on the Westin's rate for this stay. Very happy to have gotten it with such a saving again.Also, quite impressed that this was almost $80 less than the express deal rate. NOTE: The zone is called NorthEast Milan - Milan Central Station now so you might want to update the zone name.
ElPal Posted January 19, 2015 Author Report Posted January 19, 2015 I posted the incorrect dates of stay. It should be 15-17 February. Sorry about that.
