brucesf Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 Oops! I am a priceline neophyte and obviously did something wrongI did the same as this previous poster, hoping to stay in Back Bay.$70 Copley 4* (rejected)$75 Copley/Downtown 4* (rejected)$79 Copley/Downtown/ Revere Logan (Revere Logan was how it showed up on priceline)I "won" the Boston Airport Hilton....a location which couldn't be more inconvenient for me. :) Lesson learned! Double check the 4* hotels. But did I make a mistake in specifying geography, or was the previous poster just lucky? I don't see an option to choose Revere only.
thereuare Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 In the big picture you made two mistakes:1) not asking for help before bidding2) using somebody else's strategy for your own datesMore specifically, you added a zone that you didn't want and wasn't a re-bid zone. You can learn more about re-bidding at Priceline Re-Bidding Explained.What were the dates of your stay?
