thereuare Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 Welcome to BetterBidding!What is your check-out date... it got cut-off in the topic title.I wouldn't bid the MTS zone unless you failed up to your maximum in the other zones first. What is your maximum bid?Let us know the above and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

thereuare Posted December 29, 2006 Report Posted December 29, 2006 You have two re-bid zones avialable at the four star level in NYC. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* MTE...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* UM/CPS...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and MTW...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $135, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and UM/CPS...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $135, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and MTW and UM/CPS...Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $145, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $150.I'd start with the above, if it's rejected don't get discouraged as i don't think you're too far off, and we'll then take it the next step.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.
