new Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 I'm new to this forum and new to bidding on priceline. I tried a few low bids at 72 hour intervals which were rejected. 3 star in downtown Toronto and I was bidding around $50 for May 4,2006.So I tried a $70 bid and it was accepted at the Radisson. In canadian dollars with tax it comes to around $94.Probably not the greatest deal but it is still much cheaper than getting a room by conventional methods.Now I'm working on getting 2 rooms in downtown Toronto for May 5,6,7,. I'm a little more confident now so I tried low bids ( around $50 ) but I was also brave enough this time to do the free rebid stuff. So far rejected but I've got lots of time.Any corrective critism welcomed ( either on my stategy or my post ) Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!So $70 was your first bid on the day you were accepted? This is in the Downtown zone, correct?Please start a NEW TOPIC for the balance of your stay so that we can accurately reflect the details of your subsequent win (hotel name, star rating, dates, bid amount, etc) in the topic title.Thanks for sharing your win and enjoy your stay.

I can't remember exactley but I think they asked me if I would like to increase my offer.And thanks for the advice re starting another topic for my next bid. Link to comment
