morg56 Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 Hi,Not posted here before but did read some of the posts before bidding so thought I would share my success with you all.Won:4* NYC (Downtown-Soho) Millenium Hilton Rack rate is $399Hotwire price was $244Bidding strategy:Wanted 4* in any location.- Using Hotwire price as a guideline I opened bidding at $195 (All locations except UES/UWS)- Received counter offer - increase by $25- Added UES & increased bid to $205 - Rejected- Added UWS & increased bid to $215 - Rejected- Went to email checked status on original $195 bid & took counter offer adding $25 - Success!Very pleased with my win, especially as it includes New Year's Eve!I know it's a bit out of the centre but my backup was Marriott Courtyard Jersey City (for the same price) so is much better than that!
