blkjck1 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 Started the bidding at $61 US, and received an immediate counteroffer for $78. I declined, and bid all the way up to $72 using up all the rebid zones. Waited 24 hours, and started the bidding at $68, and received an $85 counteroffer. Declined, and using one rebid zone, got the room at $73.Your Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: US$73.00 Subtotal: US$73.00 Taxes & Service Fees: US$16.25 Total Charges: US$89.25 We cancelled our original booking at a total cost of $132.09 CAD.
