ANDYC Posted August 26, 2007 Report Posted August 26, 2007 Hey - great site. Coming over from the UK with my girlfriend to NYC for a week - 12th-19th October and would greatly appreciate a bidding strategy for priceline.Ideally in the usual UP/CPS, MTS, MTW, MTE, max bid $180 before tax, 4* (if this is realistic)Hope you can help.ThanksAndy
thereuare Posted August 26, 2007 Report Posted August 26, 2007 Welcome to BetterBidding!I doubt that $180 will be enough for this time of year, especially for a one week stay. If you'd like to try anyway, you have two re-bid zones available at the 4* level. 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 $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* UM/CPS...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTS...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and MTW...Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $145, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* UM/CPS and MTS...Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $145, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and UM/CPS...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $160, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTW and MTS...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $160, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and MTS...Bid $165, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $170, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* UM/CPS and MTW...Bid $165, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $170, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* MTE and MTW and UM/CPS and MTS...Bid $180, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $185, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $190I continued on to $190 in case you wanted to continue on, since i don't think you'll be successful with the above. If your $180 budget is firm you can just stop after the $180 bid.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.
